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 remain open: We have the dogs we have. Our dogs need a supportive family to offer patience, time & tolerance to allow them to settle.

Leo is a calm, relaxed boy. Lisa walked him yesterday but myself and Pero (terrier) accompanied them. The walking together wasn't planned but neither dog would bunch an inch without the other one. Both dogs walked incredibly well together - you'd never have known they'd only just met. When Pero went for a sniffle in the bushes, Leo laid down and waited for him, bless him. X

Took the lovely Leo for a walk Saturday. He was very pleased to see me and have a cuddle but after about 5 mins decided the weather wasn't that great and he wanted to go back! I didn't want to say goodbye so quickly so we went and sat in the car for a while for a cuddle and a bit of snuggle in a blanket. Leo loved this and we stayed for a while. I am becoming a sucker for the older dogs at the moment love4.gif

Oh Leo is a dream. I spent time with him this morning and nearly went to find Lynne to see if I could test his tolerance to win Heidi round!!!!!! 0002.gif]
Seriously, I have fallen for this big soppy boy and it broke my heart saying goodbye to him. Total gent is Leo, I really do love him. We had a nice walk. He was a bit shy and didn't want to walk far from the kennels, I do think he needs another dog as company. In the poets hut he made me fall more in love with him and we sat on the sofa together. His slightly undershot jaw just made his handsome face even more adorable. Gentle is an understatement to describe Leo. When we walked back, Leo got his confidence a bit and played with a ball and looked a bit happier.

Another date with the handsome Leo today. He is just the loveliest dog, I wish I could have him for myself. A dream to walk, he would suit anyone that can't walk too fast and just wants a calm dog. I could gaze at his gorgeous face all day love4.gif

Look at this face
