Genie's Story : Family had Gene since a pup; now 18 months. Grandchildren around and the owner said they didn't like the way he looked at the grandchildren, though no incident: Booked him in to be put to sleep. Vet persuaded them to sign him over instead, knowing we were behind him and offering him a rescue place. Vet says he is a really lovely dog. Came into our Rescue 21.04.18: Rescue Remedies offered a Rescue place saving his life. Genie is now neutered; chipped and fully vaccinated. Genie is in boarding kennels nr Guildford

I went into to Genie's kennel yesterday to say hello, a few barks but no malice, he came over to me for cuddles and was very gentle.
He got a little amorous but was easily to stop.

He is a shy boy who is a bit scared in kennels at the mo, but he is trying to be brave and is willing to make friends. I can't wait to get to know him better.

How handsome is this lovely boy?? Good natured, quite shy but very friendly. X

Met Genie today - what a lovely big boy! A bit nervous and not quite sure what's going on but very playful and once initial excitement to be out of kennels wore off he was a joy to walk and didn't pull for much of the time.

Great walk with Genie today. Slow to attach leads as he’s nervous of hands being around his back it seems but no nipping, did hump my leg once too as he jumped up for a cuddle.
Once out very good, he’s a lovely walker, no pulling stays quite close but doesn’t like to be bumped into. Very good when loud motorbike went by, wasn’t too sure of the horse though. I found he regularly likes nose boops, maybe as a way to stay connected and be reassured, either that or looking for treats which he takes well and on a sit command.
On our way back into the site we passed another dog and ended up following another in, he really wasn’t bothered and didn’t even pull to catch up to them.
I really rate this young man, he seems to have a gentle soul and doesn’t act his size. Hope he finds a home soon.

Oh how Genie loves to run in the paddock and even better if he has canine friend like Honey or a Hooman to play with

I’m not sure if this is the look of love or Genie silently pleading for their marathon walk to be over....

I often see Genie out on his walks with Terry and am always greeted with the best hugs - bear hug style! He wraps his legs around me and just cuddles. Nothing better than a Genie cuddle. Terry was on holiday last week so Jake walked him. When he entered his kennel Genie looked at him as if to say, hold on a minute - you’re not Terry. A few sausages later and Genie was won over and trotted off happily. They walked for miles - Genie a very good boy the whole time. He came back worn out but happy. Adorable boy. X
