Looking For Love? February 7, 2008
Posted by Jonny Mitchell in : Rehoming , add a comment
Hello! I’m a neutered male jack Russell terrier, and have been christened Ronnie Barker due to my ability to express myself vocally. I will talk to anyone who will listen, so I’m looking for an attentive owner. Like most Jack Russells my size does not hinder me, and I have an enormous personality - lively and confident, with loads of energy. I’m 6 years old and desperate to find love as I have so much to give.
The New Year saw my life change completely; I had been living rough until the dog warden caught up with me. After a week, no one had shown any interest in taking me home, and I thought my time was up, ‘Humane Destruction’ loomed over me, and I had all but given up hope.
Thankfully, the kindly folk at the Mid-Antrim Animal Sanctuary managed to squeeze me into their shelter and here I am! I fit in well here, seeing myself as the Sanctuary entertainer, but I’d love the opportunity to have fun with a family of my own: ideally one with older children (as I have no time for very young ones) and an ample garden or run.
I love long walks, ball games, naps and showing off. I’m in perfect health and like to keep myself busy, mostly chasing things but sometimes burying, depending on my mood.
If you would like to be kept on your toes then you’re the one for me. Please don’t hesitate to get in touch, I’ll be waiting. Perhaps you could call into the Sanctuary for a meeting to see how we get on? I’m only available between Tuesdays to Sunday from Midday until 4:30pm, I hope that suits you.
Beautiful Springer Spaniels Looking For Loving Homes February 1, 2008
Posted by Jonny Mitchell in : Rehomed , 2 comments
Harry is an adorable chocolate and white Springer, a neutered male of 5 years old who arrived at the Sanctuary after finding himself due for ‘Humane Destruction’ in the Dog Pound. He is very friendly and has the lively temperament associated with Springer Spaniels. Ideally Harry would suit an active owner with an ample garden or run.
Poppy is a black and white Spaniel, spayed female of three and a half years of age. Her owner became too unwell to look after Poppy so the Sanctuary agreed to take her in until a suitable home can be found. Poppy can be quiet and gentle yet is full of life and energy, craving the home life she has lost. She would make a wonderful addition to any family and deserves a second chance.

Those of you who visit the Sanctuary on a regular basis will be well acquainted with Lupo, the gentle Doberman whose leg problems had made prospective owners reluctant to home him. We’re pleased to announce that his situation has finally taken a turn for the better, and he has now gone to a new loving environment. Thanks to all of you who have given him care and attention.
