Foster a Dog

Local foster homes required – short and longer term

We would dearly love to give any dogs coming into our care, particularly the older ones the chance to live in nice foster homes.

Foster homes do need to be located fairly close to Cheadle. It would be much nicer for them to have a home environment to stay in whilst a permanent home is being sought. It may also be that instead of a short term arrangement a permanent foster home might be considered as an appropriate option.

A dog would need to be given walks regularly and would need to suit the home circumstances too. Some may not like other dogs or cats or may not be happy in a busy family environment.

We can pay for or provide their food as well as taking care of all medical costs. If any of them require follow up appointments at the vets for routine or other reasons they would need to be taken to Limetrees Veterinary Hospital, Meir Park. Arrangements can possibly be made to take them if you are not able to do so though.

If you have the right circumstances and could offer a temporary home to any of the current dogs or ones that may arrive in the future please leave your details and register your interest with us either by emailing cheadleanimalwelfare@hotmail.co.uk  or telephoning 07731 616 025.

Suki:

D/B Aug 2014

Sex: Female

Breed: Border Collie Black & White

Details:

Suki is so lovely. Sadly Suki’s owner has been ill and can no longer look after her. She is a greatly loved girl who must find another similar loving home. She hasn’t had a lot of walking until recently but is now enjoying her walks and has lost some of her excess weight and is looking great. She loves to go out on a walk now. She needs a home which gives her lots of home comforts. A little shy of some people to start with but once she knows you, she is very loving. Seemingly a bit hard of hearing but knows what hand signals mean to come to you when at home or in the garden! (She enjoyed a good fuss from me on first meeting as she came back from a nice walk I must say, and was really lovely.)

She is not keen on other dogs as she seems not really to have had the chance to socialise well with them, so needs to be a good distance apart from another dog if you meet anyone on walks as she can move quickly towards them if she wants to! She is best walked in an area where it’s isn’t a busy dog walking route.

Suki has never been used to sharing her home with another pet, so she must have a home where she will be the only pet, with no doggy visitors, so that she will get all the love and attention a new owner will provide. She is a really loving dog with people and quite laid back.

Vaccinated. Microchipped.
