Albie is trying his best but is still quite nervous of people he doesn’t know and situations he’s never encountered before. At first he is scared of visitors to the house so will bark at them, or run for comfort but he comes out of his shell once he realizes they are just friends he hasn’t met yet.Albie loves to play outside and gets very excited. He is happy to wear a collar but is still scared of the lead so further training will be required to make him feel safe.Albie hasn’t lived with children but has shown himself to be friendly and gentle with people he knows so he would be suitable for a home with calm children after introductions.Albie has been described as “a beautiful dog with a lovely spirit about him, once he’s comfortable with you he will be your best friend”. He would make a lovely addition to most households and would be so grateful to have a forever family and a comfy sofa to snuggle into.‍ Albie has not worn a lead and will need further training

Angel came to us from a pound in the U.K. We believe she had been used for breeding and then dumped when she was no longer of use. Based on the photos that we saw of Angel before her arrival, we knew she would need some veterinary assessment on her legs and these have since been completed. Angel is a pocket bully and poor breeding has lead to some deformities in her limbs. Her x-rays do show curvature of the bones in her front legs but no other issues such as arthritis were detected. Angel needs to gain some strength and stamina as it is clear she has not been used to a lot of exercise and it will be important for her future adopter to keep her at a healthy weight but the vets have said that there is nothing to currently worry about with her health.Angel came in and was immediately the sweetest dog. She is extremely affectionate and loves to sit on our laps for cuddles and affection. She does like to wander around our fields and do lots of sniffing but does end up coming back and joining us for cuddles. She is food motivated which will help with training. Angel has been good with the other dogs at the centre but can be quite excited to meet new dogs so will need to learn to stay calm.We do not know if Angel has ever had a proper home life so she will need full training upon adoption.

Archie is a wonderful big greyhound with a typical greyhound nature! He is extemely sweet and a very laid back boy. Archie is house clean and a well-behaved house guest in his foster home. He enjoys walks and long afternoon naps. He lives with two other lurcher boys and is very well behaved with them, he enjoys a little play and then back to snoozing! He travels well in the car and recently passed a health check at the vets. He has an old leg injury from this that has been operated on.Archie does having a racing history so no small furries please! Here's what his foster mum says: Archie has settled well into a foster home with two other male sighthounds. No food aggression or any dog aggression shown. Typical greyhound- loves his food and loves his comfort- very quickly has made the sofa his choice of seating. Clean in the house. Not too confident on the stairs- good going up but still a work in progress getting back down! Gets into the car and travels well in the car now(although perhaps a larger car would be useful!!) Good with other dogs when out on a walk and loves people. Walks beautifully on the lead - unless there’s a squirrel in sight! I can manage the three large boys with one hand. Rarely barks. Takes treats nicely and tends to keep all four feet on the floor when he’s greeting you which is a relief as he’s as tall as I am! Very cuddly in the house and good recall outside. Typical countersurfer- often find things squirrelled away in his bed though non destructive- just a thief. He would like to live with another dog although not essential. Doesn’t need loads of exercise. Archie is a very lovely and loving dog- well regulated emotionally- will walk away from confrontation rather than escalate it. He’s got a really good, kind nature and positive attitude to life. Archie needs a secure garden with 6ft fencing minimum and no gaps at all.As with all dogs on going training will be needed. Archie can live with dogs, no cats and children 12+ please.

Asher came to us from the pound when he was due to be put to sleep. We initially agreed to take his brother Rowan in but when Asher appeared at the pound too, we couldn't leave him behind.Asher was so scared and shut down in the pound. It was clear he hadn't been treated with much kindness but as soon as he arrived at the centre and knew he was safe, he flourished ans quickly became the bouncing, loving and playful boy he was supposed to be.Asher is the most loving and sweet boy when he gets to know you. He loves to bound around our field and play and he really loves bum scratches and belly rubs. Asher has been good with the other dogs at the centre but was a bit fearful of them when he first arrived so will need slow introductions with new dogs so that he doesn't get overwhelmed.We do not know anything about Asher's life before the pound, so please expect to do full training upon adoption.

Bambi was rescued from a life of force breeding in Bosnia. She was poorly cared for and made to have litter after litter of puppies before we managed to bring her into our care. Bambi is now with us at our rescue centre in Kent and ready for a forever home of her own.Because of the condition Bambi was in when she arrived to us, she has been with us at the centre for a little while as we needed to get her back up to a good weight and into a good condition. During that time, she won everyone's heart at the centre and has become a favourite for the whole team.Bambi is a sweet and loving girl who loves affection and belly rubs. She loves being outside in the sunshine, rolling in the grass and playing with her toys. She also loves napping in a sunny spot in her kennel and relaxing on her comfy bed.

Foal Farm

This is a special appeal for a special boy. We are looking for a long term foster home.Many of our supporters will recognise our boy, Bambi. He originally came to Foal in July 2020 at approximately a year old. He came to us from a pound, so we had no information about Bambi’s history. What we did know, was that this poor boy had not been loved and cared for. He was scared of us, underweight, had sore skin and, overall, he was in very poor condition.With a little time and patience, Bambi soon made friends with the staff and volunteers here. It became apparent that Bambi had allergies, so with medication and a good diet his health improved. Bambi was rehomed in September 2020 but was unfortunately returned after a short while. We learnt from this homing that Bambi struggled with visitors and scenarios which took him by surprise such as opening a car door.On Bambi’s return we started to notice his behaviour appeared to be a little ‘odd’. His eyesight was deteriorating, and his balance was off. We knew there was something else underlying going on and after discussion with our vets, with a delay due to Covid, we finally got Bambi to see a specialist in November 2021. Bambi was diagnosed with neurodegenerative brain disorder and mild hydrocephalus, which is water on the brain and sadly there is no treatment we can give Bambi to help with either of these conditions. He also has impaired vision. Due to his diagnosis and his behaviour becoming unpredictable, we decided it would be best for Bambi to become a sanctuary dog at Foal where he will have stability and be surrounded by people who adore him.Upon diagnosis, we were also informed that his life span would be affected, and he could only live for another two years but there is no way to guarantee this. Fast forward a year and a half, our boy is doing really well, he loves his people and is a very good boy with his favourite friends. There have been no significant changes from when he was first diagnosed and this is very encouraging.Although Bambi still has his little quirks, he has not shown aggression to those that he trusts. We understand him and respect his space when he wants it. He is a fun and loving boy and although has medical issues, is also very clever and loves training!As Bambi is doing so well, we do feel that he has the potential to settle into a new home. We are seeking the impossible, a very special somebody who can give up some time initially to become acquainted with Bambi and develop a trusting relationship with him as we do here at Foal. Homes must be adult only and free from any other animals. The team at Foal would support the transition to the home with as many visits as required with Bambi.We are looking for a foster home, so all ongoing medical issues will be covered by Foal and his new family would have our complete support for his whole life. This boy has done so well and as much as he is happy and settled here, we would love nothing more than for him to have his very own place to call home. If you have any enquiries regarding our beautiful Bambi, please get in touch with the dog team by calling us or emailing [email protected]. Thank you.
