At the minute we have managed to find 2 new members of staff and we have enrolled a few dog walkers. Thanks to everyone who offered to help.
Hopefully we will be fine for a bit…famous last words.
Please feel free to pop in with goodies for the dogs but we are not really having visitors sadly. We can’t afford for any staff here at the farm to be poorly. The animals are, as always, the priority…
Thank you…Deb
We always gets lots of Xmas presents for the animals at this time of year, most of the time we aren’t sure who from as they just come by courier..
But Lee rang up to see what we wanted and turned up a couple of days later with all this!! Thanks ever so much.
This is Thom, one of our new boys who didn’t have a clue what was going on but we got a nice picture in the end….
Big shout out to Gray & Sons Interior Shopfitters Ltd.
We now have a shop on the website with lots of our stock items to sell.
Please have a browse for the last minute Xmas presents….Thanks Deb
A mounted print (30cm x 30cm mounted size) of a beautiful watercolour painting by Lindsey Fairhurst, of one of our most popular sponsor dogs, Mr Mole is now available to purchase through our eBay shop. Each print has been hand signed by the artist, mounted in a black mount and presented in a cellophane display bag

It is a sad state of affairs, for every one, the staff shortages, but i never thought it would come to this.
We only have 20 dogs in the rehoming block, we used to have around 50.
Obviously the sponsor block is full but we only have 3 staff in on any one day and we are really struggling to get more..
We have so many dogs waiting to come in, but we can’t take them because we can’t get the staff to look after them.
So it’s catch 22…..
It would help if we could get a volunteer dog walker, or two, every day. We do have a few days covered, thanks to the regular walkers but we do need 3 or 4 more to commit to a set day.
The dogs don’t know Xmas is coming, they just know they need to go out for a walk….
It is a very sad state of affairs…..Deb
Our own Mr Mole, perfectly captured and painted by a long term supporter of Tia. She did us a “one off” for an auction prize, but it is just too good not to share to his supporters…
The cards are £2.50 each and the prints are £25. The print measures 12″ x 12″ in its frame.
Available on Ebay.
Thanks Deb
