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 Winnie'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.

Can you offer us any spaces, We're trying not to put into Emergency Boarding as we've had nasty stains of kennel cough so we have a load in the pounds. Kirsty 4paws

What a delight to meet Winnie today. I didn't expect her to be a full sized border collie. She is an older girl very calm and full of charm. Now sleeping safely in Chessington
Re: Winnie Collie DofB TBAss Chessington Kennels
Spent an hour with the beautiful Whinnie today.
I'm totally taken with this gentle soul. She was scared with her tail between her legs so we took it slowly and quietly. Met a few dogs on our way and she had no reaction .
She will make the perfect friend , I just can't understand whys she's in rescue.
I know she will find her forever home very soon .

Winnie had her 1st vaccination yesterday then went on to have a photo-shot courtesy of SarahK and then on for a cat & chicken test. Winnie was very 'non plus' showing no interest at all in 'farm yard life!'
Re: Winnie Collie DofB 2008 Chessington Kennels
What a darling she is. Looking forward to walking her tomorrow again
Re: Winnie Collie DofB 2008 Chessington Kennels
Took Winnie out for a walk this morning and what a lovely gentle girl she is! Winnie is still very timid at times, but she walked very well, ambling along just enjoying sniffing here and there. We stopped for a couple of treats and a bit of a rest and Winnie was fine with this, then we had a gentle walk back. Lovely, quiet girl, who just needs her forever sofa!
