Louise – 4 year old female Jack Russell Terrier Cross
Louise is a 4 year old female Jack Russell Terrier Cross who came into rescue after her owner had to move into rented accomodation and could not take Louise with her. Louise is great with other dogs and people and would be ideal for a quiet home, or an elderly person. She loves to be cuddled and is very low maintenance. Louise is a little wary around children, so an adult home would be best for her.
She will be spayed before leaving for her new home, and is vaccinated, microchipped, deflead and wormed.

15Mar2010 | South East Dog Rescue | READ MORELady – 6 year old female Rottweiler
Lady is the most charming Rottweiler who is approximately 6 years old. Lady came into rescue after her family moved and could not take her with them. She spent some time in a sanctuary and now thanks to her wonderful foster family, she has now been assessed in a home, and is currently living with their female Rottweiler.
Lady has lived with children, we would ask that children be aged 8 plus. She is not suitable to live with cats, but could live with other dogs, alone or with farm animals. She has been spayed, micro chipped, wormed and deflead.
Nicknamed ‘Lady Rottingham’ because of her aristocratic demeanour, heres what her foster mum has to say about her -
“She’s adorable, she’s confident and very intelligent and quickly worked out how to open the kitchen door! She’ll do anything for a cuddle and once she likes you, gives you the ‘Rottie lean’ until she’s almost falling over. She’s got a boxer like sense of fun and jumps and claps her hands when we go outside to play. She’s housetrained and clean and calm inside the house. She’s quite nosy and her favourite spot indoors is by the window where she can watch the world, and the birds go by.
She’s not a barker but she’ll give a bark to warn you if people (or foxes!) are about. She’s low-medium energy and loves going for a relatively gentle stroll and then having a snooze indoors.
She has some basic training and walks well on the lead. Being intelligent she’s quick to pick up on what is being asked of her – especially if there is a reward in the form of a treat at the end of it! Off the lead her recall isn’t great as her independent nature means she likes to go off and explore, but she doesn’t wander far. She’s not that interested in ball games or frisbee but likes to chew on a toy.
She’s fine with other dogs and other than a little bark at the horses and ducks has ignored them. Loves people as they are potential sources of cuddles and treats! She’s had a little whine when we put her to bed or popped out but very quickly settled down. Doesn’t chew or destroy anything, and seems fine with household noises such as the washing machine and tumble dryer.
Travels really well and given half a chance would love to stick her head out of the car window! (In this respect she’s been helping Roxy who isn’t too keen on the car.) Overall she’d be great for someone who would love a large breed but wants a gentle, calm and cuddly companion rather than a boisterous bundle”
If you can offer our ‘Lady Rottingham’ the forever home she is looking for, please get in touch with the rescue. Given Lady is a more mature girlie, we are happy to accept a donation of your choice.

Apollo – 1-2 year old male Cross-Breed
Apollo is a large sized, long haired very handsome Cross-Breed boy. People friendly and seems great with dogs. Really easy going, a big, gentle cuddly bear!!
Not heavily tested with cats though. Would suit most homes with space for a large dog although children must be 12 or older.
Apollo walks well on the lead, but has not been tested off lead as yet. Apollo is a fantastic dog to have around, he learns quickly and wants to please. This lad will be a pleasure to train, and will be a lovely addition to the family!
*Update from foster family*
Apollo is a very playful energetic young dog in a powerful body, he has been very social and tolerant with my 2 female dogs but not so good with male dogs. This may be due to being in a home with 2 female dogs or just his general stress at this time. He has a mass of energy and loves to run up and down the garden jumping and leaping as he goes (this is beautiful to see). He is very strong and a bit clumsy but just wants to run, play and explore.
He needs some extra training on the lead but to be honest we probably needed more training than he does because he has been very responsive to close right hand walking, we have been stopping when he pulls. We have found no response to calling his name but “come on boy” and finger clicking have been working with a small treat. He will sit with a gentle push on his bottom and a treat. He has responded to all that has been asked of him, he will try everything to see if he is allowed to chew it but a sharp no always stops him. He has an extra long lead for him to explore in the woods but he wants to be free and will try to escape the lead by jumping and leaping…… in all these things he has responded well to commands. We feel he is looking for a strong pack leader, strong in strength to help him learn and strong in leadership to be devoted too.
We have cats that are not always around but we carry them through the house and they have been passed over Apollo’s head without him showing much interest. But he has chased them in the garden when the other dogs have, so i cant say that he is cat tolerant.
He has been around children and the only danger he is is obviosly his size, his no sense of direction and wanting to be 1st in the queue for playing.
Ian has taught him to wait for his food and he is begining to stand back while i give the other dogs a treat.
He needs someone totally devoted to him not because he is bad but because he is so very very good and beautiful, he has no major problems that we can see that training and love wont sort out.
He is very affectionate, loves cuddles and loves being involved in all that is going on…and he snores.
Currently in foster in the Cambridgeshire area.
