PLEASE SUPPORT OUR VERY SPECIAL APPEAL FOR LILY AND WINSTON. CAN YOU FOSTER?
Lily is a Chihuahua cross Shih Tzu of twelve years old. Winston is Lily's son and is ten years old. They came to us as an emergency and sadly were due to be put to sleep due to their owner going into hospital. Their owner had become very ill and was no longer able to care for them. On arrival Winston was very upset and nervous however has now turned corners and loves the people he knows. He is such a sweet boy. His mum Lily is slightly deaf but very sweet. Both Lily and Winston needed grooming due to matted fur as an emergency. We were extremely grateful to a local grooming parlour that offered to squeeze us in despite a very busy schedule. Both these dogs now look and feel so much better. They are unrecognisable and especially Winston. They are typical of their breed and behave like they live on the property when they are out in the run. They love to be out and about and Lily's nose never stops touching the grass. They do bark at other dogs however they are small dogs and will be territorial even in their senior years. They are comical and loving and will make someone great companions. Winston appears initially bolshy however is extremely sweet once he feels comfortable. Once Winston knows you mean him no harm he will climb on your knee and give you his paw like a lost friend. Lily and Winston need a home together. They love each other and we will not separate bonded pairs of dogs. If you feel you can offer a foster home or forever home and have room for two then please read on. CAN YOU FOSTER? Medical support is given under our charity for senior dogs.

WHAT HOME DO LILY AND WINSTON NEED?

These dogs are extremely sweet however have been through such a trauma recently. Not only have they lost their home but they have lost the love of their life and their special human. Our aim is to find them a new start as soon as possible and a very loving home. They need a home without added pressures of other pets and small children. People that understand they will need time to adjust to a new home again is crucial. Lily and Winston sleep together and have been no trouble in kennels. They are very sad and need to find some TLC, home comforts as soon as possible. They will need an enclosed garden to sniff and mooch in and to feel that warmth from the sunshine in the days to come. This duo are very sweet and despite being barky with strangers on first meet they soon turn around to show you some love. They are now desperately in need of a loving home and would suit a person or couple that can offer lots of company, love and time. They are typical of their Shih Tzu mix and are real characters with confidence when out on their walks. In such a short space of time Winston and Lily can be picked up, cuddled and reassured by everyone that has spent time with them. Calls are welcome to discuss them in more details as we keep reaching for the stars to find so many dogs a home. Veterinary support help will be considered for any foster home that can offer them the comforts they deserve. Please consider this little duo.

Please contact us at Good Life with information about yourself and the home you can offer. We work hard to match our adopters and dogs together ensuring that humans and hounds are very happy.  We encourage adoption and invite anyone with misconceptions of rescue dogs to come and meet some very special dogs with huge characters and love to give. We are very active and hands on in the work we do and are very dedicated to the welfare of the dogs in our care and the Yorkshire strays. We welcome support and donations to help us with many dogs in desperate need of a new life. Good Life Dog Rescue is now based in Garforth, Leeds. We have recently relocated our charity.

Rescue dogs have often suffered difficult lives and some form of trauma or abandonment. We ask people to consider the huge commitment and lifestyle change of owning and adopting a dog. Rescue dogs often need time to settle back into a home. This can take at least four to five weeks for dogs to feel settled and more secure. If you are dedicated and understand that all rescue dogs need time to adjust then we would love to hear from you.
