THE DOGS TRUST DOGS-IN-NEED & THEIR STORIES
PUDDING the Schnoodle had a bad start to life, as she was found in a field with her siblings by some horse riders. Sadly she was the only one to survive but has gone from strength to strength whilst at Dogs Trust Harefield. She is now four months old and is looking for an active home that can challenge her mentally and physically.
Older Rough Collie MACK came into Dogs Trust Harefield after his owner was taken ill. He has since been adopted by a lady who travelled all the way from Essex after seeing him on the internet.
HOOLI the Bulldog came into Dogs Trust Harefield as her owner’s lifestyle changed and they were unable to give her the time and attention she deserved. She has since been rehomed and is settling in very well with her new family, whose laps she enjoys sitting on all day!
Seven-year-old Siberian Husky TESS was rehomed from Dogs Trust Harefield three years ago but is a regular visitor to the tea rooms with her new owner.
Yorkshire Terrier puppy ZUKA came into Dogs Trust Harefield just days after being taken home by his owners. Sadly the new owners were not prepared for the commitment of taking on a puppy. He has since been adopted by the rehoming centre manager and is settling in very well and regularly visits the staff at the rehoming centre.
