This section is especially for the non collie Waifs & Strays who find their way to Wiccaweys.
If you think you could provide a new loving home for one of these dogs,
please read the How To Adopt page before you call.

Fred has come to Wiccs from our Romanian rescue partners, Romanian Underdogs. Fred is a very friendly boy who has had a hard life, much of it spent behind bars in a Romanian dog shelter after being saved from a dog killing station when he was ill and hungry. Fred was looked over by the European rescues because he was deemed as being too old for rehoming.

Fred is such a happy boy who travels well and is the proud owner of a pet passport. He is good with other dogs. He is a bit like a labradoodle type in looks.

Porto has come to Wiccs from our Romanian rescue partners, Romanian Underdogs. Porto is a cheeky little chap who hit hard times, he was found hit by a car, and since then has spent most of his life in a Romanian dog shelter. When I first met him in Brasov, Romania last year, Porto's personality shone through. He was full of life and fun, but he was being looked over by the European rescues because he occasionally hops when he walks. We tucked him up in a new coat to help Porto survive the winters sub-zero temperatures until he was ready to travel.

Porto is full of fun and life. He is very cheeky and full of self importance in a nice way. He has a lovely stutt when he is walking. Porto travels well and is the proud owner of a pet passport.

Andy has come to Wiccs from our Romanian rescue partners, Romanian Underdogs. Andy is a wonderful boy who has had a pretty bleak life so far, much of it spent behind bars in a Romanian dog shelter after being saved from a dog killing station. When I first met him in Brasov, Romania last year, Andy was a joy to know. He lived on a chain attached to a wooden kennel in freezing temperatures, but he always had a waggy tail and a lovely greeting for everyone passing by. personality shone through. He was full of life and fun, but he was being looked over by the European rescues because he wasn't pretty enough and regarded as old. We tucked him up in a new coat to help Andy survive the winters sub-zero temperatures until he was ready to travel.

Andy is gorgeous!! You just want to munch him up! He such a happy little lad. He looks as if he is a Swedish Valhund cross. Andy travels well and is the proud owner of a pet passport.

Lenny B came to us from his home, via the Swindon Dog Warden.

What can we say about Lenny - well, he is hilarious!! We don't know what aftershave he wears, but all lady doggies find him irresistable and throw themselves at him!! He has definately got something!! He has a harem of floosies as long as his body that Lenny has pandering to his every whim!

Lenny is great with other dogs and just loves having a good time. He did come into rescue for some behavioural issues that we would be happy to discuss with a potential home, but overall Lenny is a Bassett - stubborn, cheeky, funny and knows what he wants from life - which is basically grub and a pretty dolly bird on his arm! DO NOT let that dour expression fool you - Leonard doesn't do cameras! They might steal his Austin Powers MoJo!

YEAH BABY!!!

This little lady is Rosie and she has come to Wiccaweys from Rochdale Dog Rescue who saved her on the day she was due to be PTS.

Dear Rosie has had a very tough life. She has been used as a breeding machine, which is blantantly obvious from her extremely saggy tummy and boobies. She doesn't really know about human contact and until she gets to know you she worries. Once she has had a good sniff of you, and if you are steady with your hand she will except a stroke and fuss. When she knows you more, she will climb on your knee, but sudden movements from strangers will panic her. Rosie had obviously never lived in a house before and this she will have to learn from scratch and any adopting home will have to bear this in mind. At the moment she will jump up on tables and work surfaces and run along them. Basically, she trashes the joint!

Rosie is excellent with other dogs and she is good with cats. Once in a car, she travels well.

Rosie needs a very patient and understanding adult only home, preferably with someone home all day, where she can be herself and be loved for being Rosie.

We absolutely love her to bits and only the very best, patient and right home will be considered.

Pics of Rosie now - she went to Chez Sarah for a haircut!!

"I feel good, dododoododo, I knew that I would, dododoododo!!.... "
