WELCOME HETTY AND NORMA. BEAUTIFUL MUM AND DAUGHTER NEGLECTED DUO - SPECIAL HOME NEEDED
Hetty and Norma are gorgeous and very loving and affectionate. They came into our care as emergencies from a stray kennels and have made great progress physically and mentally due to their foster people. On arrival they were suffering with skin ulcers (Pyoderma), mange, sore eyes and mummy Hetty has been a breeding machine. Despite their ordeal they have learned to trust humans again. Both these dogs have received the best TLC and love in an amazing foster home with our foster couple, Greg and Louise. They have now started to go on short walks together as initially they were so petrified it was impossible to walk them. They were nervous of the outside world. If you put a lead on Hetty she would scream like you were injuring her. They both have lovely temperaments and are very sweet and absolutely adorable. Norma is more demanding of attention and more playful than her mum Hetty but is just a youngster with more energy. Hetty likes to snuggle on the sofa with her head in your lap. They both snore like piggies so someone who loves this or owns ear plugs would be perfect. These ladies settle amazingly well at night and as soon as it is dark they are out like a light. They don't seem to have separation anxiety because they are so happy in each others company. They sleep all night with no crying, barking and are clean all through the night. They have made fantastic progress with their house and toilet training and have not had any accidents for a long time. It is important that they have access to a garden so they can continue to potter about together and also continue their house training in a new home.
THE HOME HETTY AND NORMA NOW NEED. ROOM FOR TWO IS ESSENTIAL
Hetty and Norma have mountains of love to give. They need a home that will not leave them for long hours and someone who has a garden to potter and play in. These girls love to mooch. A home with previous bulldog experience would be ideal as any new homes need to be aware of the daily maintenance and care bulldogs need. Every day they have their wrinkles, folds. ears and tails cleaned with wipes. They have their eyes wiped and their noses moisturised. Bulldogs are high maintenance pets.
Above all else Hetty and Norma will need time to adjust again into a new home environment with time and patience. A home without too many pressures as it has been clear from the start that these ladies have suffered neglect and trauma in their lives. On arrival they were terrified of the world and people. They would need to be lifted in and out of cars as mum is 18KG and daughter (Norma) is 15kg. Although they are now going out on shorter walks this will remain a work in progress for the months ahead. We know they will get there. The ladies have been left for three hours alone and have been fine. Their foster people returned home to cuddles. Norma is still very puppy like and playful and will steal your belongings if bored. You may need to be mindful as what you leave about. Boredom for youngsters is difficult so stimulation is key throughout the day. They are often quite happy when energy is burned off to sleep on and off throughout the day. These girls remain a favourite with everyone they meet yet on arrival they were initially scared of strangers. They now welcome visitors in their usual sweet way. Hetty and Norma are won over with a treat and kindness and now are ready to find the forever love they never had.
We thank people for their patience and kind words of support. Our charity exists with no staff so time is always very precious and we are work extremely late hours to maintain our small rescue. We are now seeing an increase in stray dogs, cruelty and shocking abandonment. We remain here for the dogs with no voice and an uncertain future. We are working hard to accommodate many neglected dogs. Support and kindness towards our voluntary organisation is greatly appreciated. Due to the sheer volume of stray dogs now needing help our charity is running behind with admin. Our main priority is for the daily exercise and welfare of the dogs in our care.
Good Life dog Rescue is run with passionate volunteers. Our efforts are made to raise funds to support stray dogs in need in Yorkshire. We are dedicated to the welfare of abandoned dogs and help many find the good life and a brighter future. Support is everything to us please adopt a rescue dog and consider the homeless dogs in Yorkshire. We help many homeless hounds and fly a flag high for the larger breeds who are often overlooked. These stray dogs have no voice and are often the last to find a loving home. If you feel you are the home for any of our dogs then please be in touch. We welcome phone calls every day. Please leave a contact number so we are able to return your call. More details about the home you can offer is essential for adoption of the rescue dogs. We work hard to match humans and hounds so a happy life can be had together for both.
