Anyone able to re-home a Parson's Russell?

A friend of the family unfortunately suffered a stroke a little while ago (she's currently still in hospital), and so, very sadly, her 2 year old, male, Parson's Russell is now in need of (fairly urgent) re-homing.

It would be really great if anyone here, or friend of someone here, would be able to offer him a good home (if no-one is found soon, he will have to go to a dog's home). I'm hoping to get some photos to put up. He's currently located here in Warminster, and free to good home, of course.

Please get in touch with any interest and I will do my best to answer (or get answers to) any questions. Thanks. Visiting from DISCO3.CO.UK

To add some more info that I've been finding out (because I don't know him myself), he still has his "doobries", apparently he's good with other dogs and plays with the children next door. Not sure what experience of sheep etc. he has.

PS: Stan, how did you know my name's Olly (not always me actually, BTW - also Dave, my father )? Have you been spying!? Visiting from DISCO3.CO.UK

Well, I have news...sort of good, sort of bad; I'm very sorry to disappoint anyone, but she's now decided to keep him. She had decided he had to go originally, but on hearing that there are people interested, she now realises she can't bring herself to part with him! Should she find down the line that she really can't cope, I'll let you all know again.

TBH, when I think about it, I think it's the right decision - a dog is just the thing to help you recover from a stroke.

Again, sorry for any disappointment. Visiting from DISCO3.CO.UK

I like happy endings.
I'm not a dog owner, but I hope it works out well, it might have to get used to the situation. And maybe they will both thrive.

Hi guys,

I'm afraid I have sad news; yes, having been out of hostpital for a little while, she's now decided that Wilf has to go...urgently, as she really can't cope, and I guess wants it over with ASAP.

I've now been sent some pics:

Extra info: As terriers are, he's full of beans. He has been a bit boisterous and apparently nipped a couple of people when being asked to move off the settee and may need a little training (but he is house trained) - to me this just sounds like a typical, grumpy, little Russel really! As said before, he regularly plays with the children next door and is friendly with other dogs. Loves going for walks, as one would expect.

Please let me know if there's still any interest, as it's quite urgent now as I'm told the dogs homes are full presently - it would be horrible if he has to be put down. I realise it's not an easy thing to rehome a relatively unknown dog.

Cheers
