Once Loved Dog Rescue

Giving hope to UK pound dogs

Guinevere (Gwen)

Guinevere Aka Gwen is a beautiful little staffie girl who was living on borrowed time at the pound. As you can see, she is painfully thin but she was found in an emaciated state. Gwen has been in emergency boarding kennels and will be arriving at her foster home this week. We are looking forward to meeting this gorgeous girl and watching her blossom into a healthy and happy dog. Please check back for updates. Gwen will not be looking for a forever home until she has spent some time in her foster home. As soon as she is available for re-homing, her details will be posted in our ‘Dogs needing new homes’ section.

Gwen has now arrived in her foster home. We think she is absolutely gorgeous!


Update from Gwen and her foster carer:

Snuggled up in a blanket after walkies and tea

I had a lovely first night in my foster home. So much nicer than kennels! Went for a little walk this morning. I was feeling a bit yuck last night but my foster mummy is very clever and she knew to give me rice this morning for my breakfast. I was hungry and I ate it all up! Then we played with a Kong. I love Kongs!! I’m a very happy girl this morning! xxxx

Sunshine and freedom!

All good here, hungry puppy and keeping food down, touch wood! Another walk has revealed she’s quite energetic, interested in everything and strong for a little un! Bit of training on ignoring dogs, bikes, people required, but she’s good at focusing when you have a treat, so should help a lot! Looking forward to a weekend of walkies and snuggles! X

Phew, I feel sooooo much better today! Woke up raring to go, played with my Kong a bit so my foster mum would know I was ready. She came downstairs but looking rather scruffy and definitely not ready to go out! She mumbled something about it being ‘quarter to four’, whatever that is. I had a quick trot around the garden and then came in and chewed my Kong for a bit. I decided foster mum wasn’t fit to be seen with in public so let her have another nap before going out. It was worth waiting cos we had a great walk! Went up a big hill, through loads of mud (yey!) and stopped at the top to watch the birds. Apparently we passed some dogs on the way back but I didn’t see them, I was too busy looking at the treats in foster mum’s hand! Got loads of treats, guess I must have been very good! Now, where’s that sofa…

19th January 2012 An update from me, Lady G!! well, where to start?! Having loads of fun here! Been on lots of walkies and I’m getting lots of treats for trotting along nicely! I get a bit excited when I see things sometimes, but I’ve improved lots already according to my foster mum. I’m even allowed on a magic lead that gets bigger and smaller now, so I can gallop around and sniff as much as I like on the quiet grassy bits. But I always go back to walk next to my person, cos I get a treat every time I do, so easy, can you believe it?! I’m getting lots of grub so maybe one day i’ll have enough of my own insulation so I don’t have to wear my coat. Although I look so cute in it, I might just wear it anyway! I do love my walkies, but I’ve decided my Kong is my bestest favouritist thing ever! I can chase it and chew it and I let the humans join in loads, they don’t have Kongs of their own, poor things.

Sleepy Gwen

Cosy in her new red coat!

January 27th 2012 Latest news from me: Boy oh boy it’s the weekend! I’m full of beans and raring to go, been learning to walk nicely all week and ready to put my new skills to the test with a long ramble tomorrow! Lots of snuggles here, now I know these people care about me and will treat me nicely I love cuddling up to them, it’s all warm and nice. My tail is getting better and my fur is becoming fluffier by the day, which really helps keep me warm in the chilly mornings, brrrrr! I really love to play and I’m teaching the humans lots of new tricks. I’m working on my high five, one day I hope to be as good as my foster brother Arthur, I’ve seen his video on YouTube! Xx
