Current Status: Homed

Honey's Story: Honey was found abandoned and unclaimed within a Northern council pound. Rescue Remedies offered a Rescue place saving her life. Honey is now neutered, chipped, and fully vaccinated. Honey came in to our Rescue Centre nr Gatwick whilst awaiting her new family.

If you are interested in rehoming one of our dogs, the first step is to complete and submit our ONLINE HOMING QUESTIONNAIRE. We do not discuss dogs without a homing questionnaire submission. You must be ready and we will only contact you if we have a suitable dog. For more detailed information, please see our Homing Process.

Please support our work and help our long stay dogs: Our minimum Adoption Donation is £250 (£400 for pup under 1 yr old). This supports our continuing rescue work and is non-refundable. We exist solely due to the goodwill and donations of our supporters and volunteers. Our dogs need supportive families who will offer them patience, time and tolerance whilst they settle in their new homes. Our Rescue offers all our dogs back-up for life.

Please note: Dog laws have changed, with zero public tolerance and prejudice against bull breeds and terriers in particular. Our Rescue asks new owners to keep their dog on a lead in public spaces and manage and support its encounters with new dogs and people, so as not to place the dog's life at risk. Destruction and Control Orders are commonplace nowadays.

Honey's progress through our Rescue is below.
We work with our dogs, who often reveal an evolving picture and positive skills as they build trust.

Original referral information: 15.4.24: Honey IS BOOKED PTS unless can secure rescue confirmation by tomorrow, will hold if safe. Honey in the pound, listed as a staffie cross. Extremely lovely with humans and have dog test which consists basically of her going for a walk with another dog.

Honey arrived on Monday making her safe. Yesterday she travelled into our Centre so we can get her settled with us and prepare her for spay next week.

Honey is good with dogs and enjoyed relaxing in our grass paddock then retiring for a good meal and bed.

Honey is a beautiful, friendly girl. She was very welcoming in her kennel for our first meet, and was very easy to harness and lead. Unfortunately the weather wasn’t on our side, so we had a short, timid walk (it was very very wet and very very muddy), but once safely back in the cover of her kennel we enjoyed some lovely cuddles.
We did pass a few other dogs and cats whilst we were out and she politely ignored everyone!
I have a feeling she will be extremely popular!

If ever a dog's name reflects them, it's our dear new girl, Honey. Not only is she honey-coloured but she is a real, real honey. Friendly, easy, beautiful and sweet. She walks on a nice loose lead. She wasn't massively keen on all the wet mud but few of us are and actually, she did get more used to it as our walk progressed and even followed me through a pretty deep puddle. I noticed her looking longingly at the nearby grass so I took here there and she rolled and rolled and rolled in the sunshine, obviously enjoying herself (as you can see in the vid). She's an absolute sweetheart and I look forward to walking her again (although I suspect she will quickly become very popular with the other walkers!).

Met honey for the first time today and she was such a lovely girl! Slightly excited to harness but easy enough. We stayed in the paddock and she loved playing ball and rolling around in the grass. She knows how to do paw and Sit.

I had another walk with the absolute honey that is Honey. She was enjoying a lot of sniffing but didn't seem to be into the walk much.  Turned out all she actually wanted to do was this:

Honey just wanted this.

So we chilled on the grass, had cuddles and watched the world go by.  

Honey is a very soothing presence and a beautiful soul.

Had the privilege of keeping this girl over the bank holiday weekend!
Lucky enough to get some warm weather and Honey enjoyed chilling in the garden and getting lots of sofa (and bed) sleeps
Honey is totally unbothered by other dogs, she want EVERY human she sees to give her some love! She was happy in the car and just laid down (journey wasn’t very long)
She will make the most loving and loyal dog to whoever wants her.

I got to walk honey today and she is the most lovely doggo. Loved a game of tug and enjoyed a treat in the paddock. She walks nicely on the lead, only pulling sometimes and seems to respond to her name. Knows how to Sit too.

Another lovely weekend with this lovely girl!
Lots of interactions with dogs with no issues
We also had some curious cats following us around on our evening walk to which honey was totally unfazed!
She took a major liking to my son who is 4 and would do sit and paw perfectly with him
I cannot wait to take this girl out again!
