BACKSTORY TO THE BUDDY FAMILY:
Goldie was a young girl, living at a house where she was chained, abused and ignored. One day she escaped, she found a lovely chunky boy called Buddy who had a home, no chain and space to roam around so she started to live outside with him. Soon after came 6 puppies. Goldie and Buddy did their best to raise the pups, sadly two pups didn’t make it, 4 did. Around this time Goldie fell pregnant again, Buddy’s owner contacted Ocean Acres to let them know that she had given birth and her 3 day old puppies were at risk due to adverse weather conditions. Goldie and her babies were whisked away, leaving Buddy to look after his four remaining young dogs. Goldie and all of her second litter found new homes but their rescuers couldn’t help wondering what happened to Buddie and his 4 children. So they went back to find out. Sadly one pup had been hit by a car and died, the other pups were ok, but there is as an urgent need to remove them from their outdoor home and get them on the path to a new life. They have all be neutered and vaccinated. They took to their new collars and leads well. We think that Buddy, Fennel, Bay and Chilli realize that treats and regular dog food and preventative medication for parasites, mean they were being looked after and that humans aren’t all that bad!
Fennel is a super sweet girl, she is friendly, affectionate (like her dad) and took to meeting her younger siblings, who are still puppies, very well. She is small (can be lifted and held with one arm). She is used to wearing her collar and has taken to the lead well. Fennel will make a wonderful pet for anyone who loves cuddles and a dog who is a big fan of humans.
Fennel is approximately 15lbs
