Molly – 13 year old female Cross-Breed


Molly is a 13 year old Crossbreed girl who is currently in an Oldies Club foster home in Bracknell, Berkshire. Molly is a very quiet and gentle girl and she needs a new home through no fault of her own. Her previous owner was ill and had to go into care, so Molly was looked after in kennels for a period of time.

Molly took a couple of days to settle in and make herself comfortable and she’s now proving to be a very easy going dog. She doesn’t mind being left alone for reasonable periods of time and makes no fuss about it. She’s very welcoming and always happy to greet new visitors to the house.

Molly takes a mild interest in dogs out of the house. She’ll have a sniff at them, but so far hasn’t been particularly playful with them. She is generally good with other dogs though and her foster mum believes she’d be quite happy with another elderly and quiet dog for company.

Molly hasn’t yet come into close contact with any cats, but she tends to ignore any that pass in the street.

Molly absolutely loves her walks and she never wants to come home! She’s very good on the lead and is currently walked on an extendable one and stops when it reaches it’s full length. Because Molly is hard of hearing she doesn’t have any recall. However, she doesn’t wander too far away and always keeps her eye on you. She can be quite slow to keep up because she’s constantly distracted by all those lovely smells! Molly is very good in the car too, so would always be up for new and exciting walks further afield.
Molly’s favourite pastimes: Walks … and more walks! Molly lives for her walks and if you forget she’ll let you know when it’s walkies time!

Molly’s perfect home is one where she will get at least two good walks every day. She’s a very easy going and loving girl, but she would prefer a home without children. She’s had quite a lot of pain in her back legs from arthritis and is still quite sensitive in that area. If you catch her legs she’ll yelp and grumble at you, so she’d like to find somewhere quiet with adults who will respect her boundaries.

Molly is spayed, vaccinated, wormed and flea-treated. She’s had a couple of teeth removed due to dental decay and has arthritis in her back legs, but is on pain relief for this. Molly also arrived with an ear infection and this is being treated with drops. She is hard of hearing and can only hear loud noises, but this may improve as her ear infection clears up.
What does Molly’s fosterer have to say about her: Molly is a pleasure to have around and is obedient as long as she can see what you want from her. She was quite subdued at first, due to her arthritis and other problems, but now these are beginning to clear up I am noticing her becoming more animated and lighter on her feet. She is a little overweight and we are working on that at the moment.

Alley – 12 year old female Cross-Breed


Alley was found tied up in an Alley hence her name, she is a 12 year old female Cross-Breed. She was rescued when she was a year old and joined a family with a toddler and young child. She is owned by an army officer and used to go to work with him in his office everyday. She is now left for short periods and is very accommodating.

Alley is an old-fashioned cross breed, possibly a Collie cross Staffie. She has always been around children, but now she is older she tries to keep herself away from too much pulling. However, she love to play fetch. She is in very good health and has been all her life.

Alley is a loving older lady who can’t move with her Army family and so is hoping to find a family which will be her retirement home. She is still full of life and has a dear personality. She is an “off lead” dog and meets dogs well outside enjoying her walks. She has been used to kennelling whilst her owners go on holiday and is adored by the kennel staff. She loves her food. Is neutered, vaccinated and has a lovely soft coat.

Alley would make a good first time dog owners dog. She is ‘no bother!’ and is such a pleasure to have around. She is an older lady, but has plenty of life in her still! Someone is looking for a loving companion and will appreciate her charms and friendship. She hasn’t lived with a cat, but was afraid to go too near a neighbour’s cat. She would fit into a family who would love to enjoy a walk in all weathers, but relax on return. Alley is a treasure.

Sally – 10 year old female Jack Russell Terrier

Sally has got a lovely temperament and has lived with children for 7 weeks in her foster home, is great with other dogs, ignores cats and shows no reaction to small caged animals. Sally does have a small fatty lump on her stomach, but this has been checked by the vet and he has confirmed that it is unattached to anything so can be left alone.
