Current Status: Homed
Kevin's Story : Found stray/abandoned & unclaimed within a council pound: Rescue Remedies offered a Rescue place saving his life. Kevin is now neutered; chipped & fully vaccinated. Kevin was in boarding kennels near Chessington, then in foster with another Patterdale, children & cats in Bognor Regis. Kevin was homed for 1 month but we think being an only pet proved too much for him:
Kevin arrived as a frightened boy he is settling with us & definitely he is sensitive. Learning to trust & comes when gently called and soon trusts. Was in foster with another Patterdale, cats & children & was very successful! Homed for a month but got nervous of the husband and children. Now in kennels nr Guildford Kindness.
PLEASE NOTE: Dog laws have changed with zero public tolerance and prejudice against bull breeds and terriers. Our Rescue asks new owners to maintain dogs on lead in public spaces and manage encounters for at least 4 months until sure of their dogs instincts & skills, most of our dogs will need to be retained always on a lead, so as not to place dog's lives at risk, (Destruction or Control Orders are common place nowadays).
***PLEASE HELP OUR LONG STAY DOGS: Our min. adoption donation £175, which supports our work and Is non returnable. We will offer an alternative dog should our dog not settle given adequate time and reassurance. Rescue Remedies offers their dogs back up for life and exist on the goodwill of our supporters and volunteers.
Please click for Kevin's thread for regular updates, new pictures and videos. To apply to home a dog, you must be ready within 7 days and complete a homing questionnaire submitted Online We work fast to secure our dogs their loving homes and can be talking to up to 10 families at any one time. Please remain open: We have the dogs we have. Our dogs need a supportive family to offer patience, time & tolerance to allow them to settle.

Re: Kevin Patterdale DofB TBAss Chessington Kenns
Had the pleasure of meeting Kevin and taking him for a walk today. Kevin was reluctant to walk at first and appeared nervous, however, he spotted Milo and started walking. He spent most of the time though sniffing the grass and exploring. He did not respond to treats, but loved having his tummy rubbed, responds to kindness too. A cute little black terrier who appears to like the company of other dogs, no problem on the lead when he does eventually start walking. I feel he will be a lovely little fellow once he has settled down and given plenty of TLC, that sad look and nervousness will soon disappear. Lovely boy.
Re: Kevin Patterdale DofB TBAss Chessington Kenns
Beautiful boy, lovely black coat. His sad expression will evaporate now he has been rescued by RR. Looking forward to seeing his progress.
