Gladys – 2 year old female Jura Hound

Gladys is a 2 year old Jura Hound from Cyprus. She is in the UK and has settled very well but is too interested in the resident cat. She has previously been fine with cats. She is great with other dogs and house-trained. Gladys is not blind …and is simply missing her right eye. This will not impede her in any way. We would like to move her as soon as possible so please do get in touch at blinddogrescueuk@yahoo.com if you would like to meet/adopt lovely Gladys.

HISTORY: Found having been dumped outside of the Sanctuary with a severe trauma to her right eye. She has been at the sanctuary for about 1 year now. Gladys was taken straight to the vets and sadly her eye could not be saved and had to be removed. She stayed in a foster home with 5 dogs and countless cats during her recovery and had a great time there. However, once she was fully recovered Gladys had to return to the shelter and has remained there until moving into her most recent foster home prior to her flight to the UK.

LIKES: Gladys loves cuddles and to be fussed, she particularly likes to have her chin rubbed until your hand has gone numb. She also enjoys to lie on the sofa for a cuddle of an evening. She enjoys rawhide chews. Gladys enjoys walks but does pull on the lead to begin with out of excitement but calms down after a few minutes. She is also good off lead with people she knows and trusts and doesn’t stray far. Gladys loves to interact with other dogs and is good with cats. She is also good with children and enjoys to play with them. Gladys likes to chew things out of boredom. She has claimed a bathroom ‘loofah’ as her own and a few socks.

DISLIKES: Gladys is a bit unsure of busy populated places as it appears she hasn’t been exposed to these things much however, with a bit of encouragement she carries on fine. Gladys doesn’t really like to share food with others dogs, she’s not keen for them to have any from her bowl and she won’t take from other dogs bowl but if it’s left unattended it’s classed as common ground in her eyes and will quickly gobble it up. Gladys gets startled every now and again when you suddenly appear in her eye line when she couldn’t see you approaching due to having no vision in her right eye but she certainly doesn’t lack confidence because of this.

DIET: Gladys is fed dry dog biscuits (brekkies) with a little dog meat 2x daily. She also has tasted and enjoyed, luncheon meat, jam, peanut butter, apples, salt & vinegar crisps and cheese & onion crisps.

TRAINING: Gladys has had 1 accident in her foster home on the first week of her being there. Since then she has been clean, however she doesn’t always tell you she wants to go, you have to prompt her from time to time. She has learnt ‘sit’, ‘down’ and ‘bed’ since being in a foster home. She is used to sleeping in a crate at night times and is happy to do so.

Rocky – 18-24 month old male Cross-Breed

Meet Rocky, our big softie! Rocky is an 18-24 month old male crossbreed, who although can appear a little aloof at first, can be quite affectionate when he gets to know you and proves “never judge a book by its cover”. Rocky is quite a calm boy and isn’t over excitable or boisterous, however he doesn’t yet respond to any basic commands so will require a lot of training. Rocky is looking for a strong, confident owner, as he himself is quite strong-willed so will need someone in charge who won’t be a pushover.

Rocky loves to play with toys and sticks, so would like an owner that will enjoy playing fetch with him, but unfortunately he cannot be rehomed with children. Rocky has been fine with other dogs that he has met so far, so should be ok in a household with another female dog, but unfortunately will not be able to go to a household with cats or rabbits. He will be fully vaccinated, microchipped, wormed and flea treated.

Betsy Bonny Betty Barbie and Bonzo – 10 week old male and female Cross-Breeds

Meet those adorable babies. When those little characters came to us, they were just a bag of bones, full of worms and frightened. They are now confident, happy and pleased with their new found comfort. We are not too sure what breed they are but were told possibly pointer cross. They are dainty little dogs with long ears like a lop eared rabbit. All they need is someone to love them and care for them for the rest of their lives.

There are four girls and one boy and have been wormed and received their first vaxination.

Those little angels are fosterered in North London. For homechecking purpose, we prefer prospective adopters to reside in London or neighbouring counties.
