SECRET UPDATE!!!SSSHHH Please read me

 

It's my Birthday on Thursday 11th March and I'm 12 years old. I've heard them talking and there will be cake, for dogs and people.

Due to mothers day they are celebrating my birthday the weekend after. Please come and see me to help me celebrate, I may be old but I still like to party. See you then, love Noseyxx

 

UPDATE 19/1/09

 

Due to the age of Nosey she is no longer available for adoption. But please do not feel sorry for her she has her very own granny flat, and comes and goes as she pleases. She is still, the official greeter, and enjoys a walk when she's in the mood.

 

Nosey is still our figure head for sponsorship and to keep her in the lap of luxury she is used to, please consider our diva of the kennels. If you dont have the time or the space to own a dog yourself, she is the ideal candidate. You can come up, meet her and take her out for a walk! Our sponsorship payment options are either, A ONE OFF PAYMENT PER YEAR, or a little bit each week or month. Quite a few people opt for a monthly standing order and Nosey is very careful how she spends her sponsorship money!

Update 6/4/09:  Meg and Fletch are like an old married couple and have been with us since xmas. Even though they have such a tight relationship, they are still loving and attentive to the people walking them. We love them to bits, and are desperate to find them a loving home. They do need to go as a pair and ideally with no other dogs.  Please, if you are looking for someone to love, consider these two.
