Well what a lovely day at Wiccs.Lots of lovely :walkies and plenty of :wooflove:
A massive thank you to everyone who came over to help. Julia and I arrived to make an early start and then we were soon joined by Dave, Karen and Wiccs boy Polo, always a delight to see him. Then a lovely surprise as the familiar faces of Mick and Lin came round the corner, fresh from their trip to Australia, so lots of catching up to do. Welcome back guys.
Today we welcomed three new walkers who had responded to my desperate plea for help. Thank you Jo, Angela and Simon, hope to see you all again.
Lots of beautiful woofs to walk. The Romanian gang certainly enjoyed their walks in the field and seem to have all the walkers wrapped around their paws already
Colin was on his best behaviour as he tried to impress Jo with his ball skills. the new girls Jess and Sophie loved walking with Polo, they just couldn't get enough of him.....in fact Polo seemed to enjoy all his walks with the girls.
Roxy and Russell did brilliantly walking without each other, they continue to make such progress.
Too many woofs to mention individually, but sufice to say some gorgeous boys and girls waiting for their forever homes.
One of the highlights of today for me the adoption of a very special girl. I first met Meggie in November when we visited the rescue centre in Brasov, Romania and although I met lots of lovely dogs Meggie stole my heart. In fact she didn't have a name and we called her " Meggie". She spent her days chained to her kennel and she simply stood quietly watching the world go by, she looked sad and acted like an old dog. It was as if she had resigned herself to the fact that this was going to be her life and had accepted it.
Meggie wasn't one of the dogs who we had been asked to meet and assess so when we left I said goodbye to her.
So imagine my surprise and joy when I discovered that she was coming over to Wiccs and I was so excited when I met her on her arrival last week. When I took her from the van and walked her in the field I saw a completely different girl..........she was happy and just wanted to run and play, she certainly brought tears to my eyes.She is just such a gentle girl.
Anyway yesterday I did a homecheck and discovered they were interested in Meggie, well they came up to Wiccs today and it really was love at first sight for all concerned :wooflove:Meggie soon had the children and in fact the whole family wrapped around her paws............so off she went. And she will now be living a few miles from me so I'll probably get to see her again.
Well done Meggie, have a lovely time with your new family
Talking of the Romanian gang.........the first dog I met on our visit to Romania hitched a lift home with me tonight. He is a big bear of a boy and poor Bobbies face was picture !!
