Cassie, 1-2 year old Staffie Cross needs home!

Rescue Remedies · #1 (**permalink**) 19-01-2009, 04:50 PM

Cassie, like so many Staffie crosses that end up in pounds ... found stray. She is one of the lucky ones to receive a rescue place ... 3 on the list and she was the reprieved one. She is shining forth; embracing every opportunity and relishing every breath. We have grand designs for Cassie as she has such a smashing personality, she will soon be on her way ... to join her family once we find them! So the search is on and no stone will be unturned, as they say.

Cassie is in good health, has just been spayed and is beginning the vax process now. She is bouncy, but she has passion so what is she to do! She is difficult to photograph as she tends to be all over you like a rash. Next second she is offering you a branch or asking you to play ball. Well this is exercise time, in between long waiting times, in her kennels. She will need some basic training and teaching a few manners, but she is intelligent and oh so wants to please. Oh we do hope her home comes up soooon. Currently kennelled in Woldingham Surrey.

A couple of updates from one of our volunteer walkers:

Quote:

Took Cassie out for a 'jog' today. Once she got going she wasn't having any of this jogging and insisted I try running properly! With a lot of help from her I ran faster than I have tried before. Getting her ready to go was such a challenge! One very fiddly harness which of course she immediately wriggled and jiggled until it tangled. Then just as I was getting somewhere she rolls on her back - anyone who has met her will picture the scene! Repeat 3 times approx then off we go. No fear of cars , just interest so I was glad we went the quiet way. Chickens behind the fence - ok but escaped chicken wandering about in clear view was another matter. But I persuaded her it was more fun to move on. It was so lovely to see her back in her kennel but chilled. Later though she was back to her 4ft high 4-legged pogo when I went past.

and ...

Took Cassie out for a walk today with my son 14 and daughter 11. They both loved her even though she was strong on the lead. Very bouncy but not at all threatening. My son really took to her which was pleasing because he is wary of lots of dogs. Another one we would take home to foster if we could. This little girl needs to be out enjoying the world and part of a busy family.

Cassie has been living in foster and we have updated her advert and include some new photos:

History: Found Stray and rescued from a pound that puts Staffies to sleep without a chance.

Salient points: Young and vibrant. Needs active life with training and occupation. Good natured, just novice in approach to dogs.

Advert: Cassie is a beautiful Staffie cross though she isn't cross ... quite happy actually! She is a dog who would benefit from experience behind her not because she is uncontrolled, just because she has had such little input and needs reassurance and guidance. She is intelligent and ready to learn what is to be excepted of her. She'll soon be offering you her paw and doing your washing up!

Cassie is a medium sized dog with a very pleasing feel. She has this long white sock which looks so different, as though she has come out in a rush and forgot to put the other on (perhaps she did). If you are looking for a average size cross breed who will bring return on your love, care and guidance, Cassie will stay by your side for the rest of her life as that admired dog, who out shines all other contestants!

"Please note that this dog is currently in kennels and is also available for foster until a 'forever' home is found".

An update and some photos from Lynne who walked Cassie yesterday:

"Cassie, oh Cassie thought we'd try a joint walk, but your level of excitement coming out of the kennels was such and we took it slowly ... no you didn't, it was a struggle to contain her enthusiasm!

Out on her walk with Mac she did really well. Curious to meet, but we waited for her energy to settle ... and when it did, she greeted Mac really well and they walked along side each other for a fair way.

Cassie's enthusiasm then kicked in and she became the leader of the pack. Come you lot..keep up"!

Sarah, one of our volunteer dog walkers, is in love.......Cassie casts her spell again!

Cassie has come on so much and mixes so well with other dogs...Rod, Sarah's husband returning from his walk with Buster (staff) stated how well Cassie and Buster got on walking together. Buster was reactive to dogs last week! I don't know about spells, more like magic potions going in these's dogs food bowls!

Both are still looking for a foster home or forever home.

It wasn't a good day for Cassie. She came out of the kennels with gusto. She didn't seem to concentrate on us, the walk, the other dog Chancer very much. She was intent on eating lots of grass and doing her own thing. All the pictures of her were blurred or a mismatch. I didn't meet our Cassie today ... this was a down Cassie, poor love its tough, really tough, being in kennels for month on month! Cassie we'll write this day off and hope you have lots of special cuddles from your friends and walks during the week.

Cassie desperately needs a foster home or forever home of her own.

Cassie is having a little break from kennel life and has temporarily gone into foster. Here is an update from her whacky foster mum ...

Hello Auntie Lynne, Auntie Dee, Auntie Sharon and all my forum friends
it’s me Cassie, I have arrived at Secret Squirrels den for my week’s holiday. I’ve had a good bath and feeling much fresher after my journey. Uncle Eddie assisted and held my collar while Squizz washed and dried me. I have had some chicken and rice. Don’t worry about me the accommodations cool.

In the car Cassie just sits on the front seat, she’s a good travelling companion, window watches then lies down. She’s a breeze to bath as the photos show and eats very gently. She spent most of the day in the car so on her first walk she pulled a little on the lead. She has explored the house and has paced a lot but that’s to be expected. At this moment she is flat out asleep. I noticed that when I put the gas fire on after her bath she moved away quickly then went back to investigate. Eddie who is in the photos is nervous of all dogs, does it show, he has played with her and she loves to mouth his hands in playfulness. The garden is booby trapped and Cassie will be attached to a large clothes line so she can’t escape. I hope to walk and socialise Cassie around the towns and the country side, to meet as many people as possible and get her used to me.

First impression she is a lovely natured dog.
Sharon will help me upload the forums photos and I will add some onto the website.

Here is another update from Cassie's foster mum known as Secret Squirrel on our forum:

This man made a real fuss of me, apparantly the collie does not like Squirrels and chases them.
