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.
Dog of the Week: Colin February 1, 2008
Posted by Jonny Mitchell in : Latest News , add a comment
Meet ‘Colin,’ an 18 month old Labrador/Collie crossbreed. He is now castrated and fully vaccinated. Colin came in to Mid-Antrim Animal Sanctuary on the 29th of November 2007 as a stray from the Dog Pound which was due for ‘Humane Destruction’.
Colin has a beautiful nature and is very affectionate with adults and children alike. He walks well on a lead, has a healthy appetite and a lovable disposition. At some stage he may have had an altercation with another dog as he is very wary of them and has a similar reaction to cats.
An ideal home for Colin would be an outdoor loving family with school-age children as his lively nature might over-power a young child. He needs lots of attention and stimulation as he is intelligent and very quick to learn.
If you could offer Colin a loving home, even if you do not fit the ideal criteria then we would love to hear from you at the usual email and phone number.
