Remember Podenco Rene? Happy in his forever home
Remember our poor podenco boy Rene whose adoption offers kept falling through one after the other by pure bad luck, and how just when he was getting pretty sad and feeling totally invisible he fell on his paws with forever Mum Deborah Ashton back in December?Well here’s a little album of our cheeky Spaniard’s first months in the UK for all his fans to enjoy and to see how happy he is: zooming round the garden, out on field walks, hobnobbing at doggy day care and getting busy with the ironing – or is that practising surfing for his holidays!! And I have to include his and Deborah’s first-meeting photo again as last but not least as it says it all: these two just love each other. Greetings from Rene to all his friends and in particular his special people, godparents and kennels Mums. As ever it was a team effort to keep him safe all that time from when we first rescued him from the pound.
