Ah lovely to see little Coby/Cody snuggled in a warm bed. Poor little oldie should not be in the pound….hopefully things are looking up now and your golden years will be the best.

Congratulations little Alfie and your now, forever family! Delighted you had such a short wait for your home. Sleep safe and happy from now on you little cutie.

Ah Daisy is just the maddest little pup. She has so much energy for the size of her. She is always the last to wind down for sleep time. She just can’t stay still at all, but has to be exploring.
She adores running around the garden, and as the smallest pup, she can get in between pots where the others can’t get her! Then she comes charging out and the chasing begins.
I can’t get photos (but boy have I tried) as they just don’t stay still long enough.
Dolly started barking in the garden yesterday when the pups were with her and she frightened the life out of them (yes, even Daisy) They all came bounding into the kitchen and ran for the door to get back into their own room. Dolly knows how to get them back to bed.

Dixi is just a little baby. She soooo loves her cuddles and being protected from the big bad world (probably she’s just got lost and can’t find her way to the door ). Dixi loves snoozing but when she wakes up she leaps around the place having fun and chasing Daisy and Dobby.
She is Mammy’s little girl (both mammy’s actually ) as she follows Dolly around all the time. While Daisy and Dobby are off exploring by themselves, Dixi will walk with Dolly and play with Dolly.
Dixi is just the cutest little girl – I truly adore her and I love her little personality. She is a little more clingy than the other two, so a home where she is cuddled and allowed to be brave in her own time would be wonderful for this little girl.
She loves her runs around the garden now and can jump up and down the steps without a bother.

Dobby is adorable. He will be 7 weeks old tomorrow. He is a very chilled little pup. This week the pups have been let out onto the patio for a little fresh air and exercise. Dobby loves running around like a silly monkey, and running behind the flower pots, so his Mam Dolly can’t get him!!
The first time outside he was a little nervous but now he charges through the kitchen and down the steps and he’s away…….
Great news is, after about 15 mins mayhem, Dobby is more than happy to go back to bed and snooze a few hours away….
Dobby has a lovely playful personality and is a real cutie pie.

Dolly and Goldie (my oldie) still plod along with no problems. Dolly seems to give Goldie respect and accepts that Goldie gets fed and treats etc before she does. As Dolly no longer wanted to sleep with the pups at night, Dolly and Goldie now sleep in the sitting room together (but on 2 different couches!!).
Dolly has calmed down a bit around Tio and seems to trust him a little more than in the early days. Tio is nervous of Dolly and stays out of her way as much as he can. Dolly doesn’t interact with either of my dogs, but when she’s with her pups, she’s a different dog.
Dolly changes into a pup herself when she is with her puppies. She steals their toys from their mouths (naughty mammy ) and chews them herself. Yesterday, Dixi tried to get Snoopy teddy back but Dolly growled at her and Dixi got the message. The pups go out into the garden now for a little fresh air and Dolly chases them all around the flower pots. They have loads of fun – and then they all sleep afterwards. Yipee!!

Looks like the day went really well. I remember following Mojo’s story, so lovely to see him again! Congratulations Marie for holding the day and sorry I couldn’t make it.

Alfie it’s great to see you out of the pound, with your tail in the air and a happy face. You are a cute little guy. Well done Lorraine – I have a soft spot for the little dogs and especially hate seeing them in the pound.

[yoddy]

Wow Pip you are a wonderful looking doggy – wouldn’t recognise that’s it’s the same dog in the 1st photo. Great to see her all smiles and free. Well done Julia – you have made 1 little dog very happy.

Well today is a bittersweet day for me…..Dolly’s pups are 6 weeks old and so are getting their own profiles from today. It’s the start of them leaving which is sad, but also the start of what I hope will be very happy lives ahead for them.
This profile will be just for Dolly now. She has almost reared her little pups and now it’s time for her to get some attention! She so deserves her own loving home. She has met a lot of people over the weeks and has welcomed all, and everyone agreed that she’s beautiful and has a super temperament with people. My friend brought her 3 year old to visit as Dolly hadn’t been around children when with me. (He was a little overwhelmed by her welcome, but Dolly was fine with him, so I’d say she’d be ok with children).
Whoever gives Dolly a home will be never be short of a cuddle or a stalker as she follows me every where.
Thanks Milfus and all the others who had supported me with their lovely comments. Yvonne
PS Due to unforseen circumstances, Dolly won’t now be at the 2 DID
information days.

Dobby is a Ladies man already….
Daisy and Dixi are not impressed that their brother is already chasing the girls….

Well Buttons you certainly landed on all 4 paws with your family. I fostered you before you went to your lovely family and you were the most gentle little lady ever. My current foster Dolly, is a very similar temperament and also unfamiliar with toys and play. It’s great to see how Buttons has developed in a few months and is on for everything now! (even shoe chewing ). I love reading your posts and following Buttons story – what a happy ending!

Hi Leanne – the first thing you need to do is submit an adoption application form. If you go to the home page, there is an option "Forms and downloads" and then submit an online adoption form. Claire will get in touch with you then (but please be patient as we are all volunteers and have day jobs too.)
Dolly is a darling and will soon be separated from her puppies so she will be looking for her forever home then.
If you are on the northside of Dublin, Marie is holding 2 Dogs in Distress information days and Dolly will be popping in, if you would like to meet her. On Sat Oct 5th in BestBuds florists in Killester and Sat Oct 12th in Petworld Omni Shopping Centre.
Please keep following Dolly’s story and if you have any questions, post them up and I’ll try and answer them as best I can. Yvonne
