This week Abby, our part time nurse, adopted a rabbit and 2 guinea pigs from the RSPCA.

The rabbit- named Roger- is only 8 months old. Abby fell in love with him straight away. He is very friendly and is currently living in the house (trained to a litter tray) bossing the cats and dogs. He will  eventually be living with Abby's other rabbit as a companion. Abby brought him to us for a full health check and castration. He is a very healthy rabbit and very adorable. 

The 2 guinea pigs which are suspected to be pregnant are not so friendly and live with Abby's other two guinea pigs, but I am sure with plenty of TLC from Abby they will soon be happy to be handled.

At the moment there are so many little furries like these looking for homes. As Abby found out when only looking for rabbit, she came home with three new pets. People are always talking about cats and dogs which are looking for homes, but they never consider the possibility that these little animals need homes.

If you would like to offer a loving home to a rabbit or a guinea pig or two please call the RSPCA volunteer on 01952 250129

We have named our dog training classes Sitting Pretty Dog Training School.

We are kicking off with our first class on the 6th Febuary 2007. It will be a bronze/puppy class aimed at teaching basic commands and obedience in line with the kennel club good citizen sheme. This class is now fully booked, but if you are interested in enrolling on to a training class please call us on 01952 201369. We do have forthcoming dates for training but they are filling up quickly.

Watch this space to see pictures of our first class progressing through their training.
