Since it opened in 1999, hundreds of dogs have passed through the kennels doors and have gone on to wonderful new homes and families. On this page you will see some of those lucky dogs in their forever homes, and hear how they've settled in and how they've enriched their new families' lives.

Update on wee Tess, from her family.xx

Ena
We will get family photo to you at the weekend.
We are all absolutely besotted with our new member of the family. She is such a beautiful and gentle little lady. This morning when I was leaving at 630am I wasn't sure how she would be, but I shouldn't have worried. I was watched by the little sleepy head who was cosy in her basket. Then my we friend came out with her tail wagging and gave me a great send off to work. She was at ravenscraig today and put a paw in the sea. Too cold!! Beach was great though.

I'm off to my new home this morning, I nearly ended up in Dunfermline but although wee Alfie is fine with dogs at the kennels he gets jealous if Ena & Frank take another dog home !

I have been " chosen " now for about two weeks but had to wait until I had been spayed, However mum came up with my big " sis and brother " to see me so I wouldn't be too strange when I went home.

Mum was the one who came for me this morning, but she is going to send a "family " photo in when everyone is together. I was looking at the camera then wee Alfie came in with a ball, I love playing with toys now x.

So the rest of my life starts here. Love Tess xx

Floyd Goldendoodle x >>
Posted: 1st February 2014

Look who came to visit wee !!! Floyd one of the Goldendoodle puppies. He is getting big but such a sweetheart. My brother Zak was also here when I arrived, all we needed was for Brodie our other brother, but he didn't come. Me and Zak had super fun rolling around play fighting, and I emptied the water dish oops, it was good fun though we ended up being really wet, but had such fun. Hopefully we'll meet again. Love Zak xx.

Ps. There is a wee video of us on as well thanks to Scott for putting it on.

Hi Ena and Frank,

Another wee pic for u to show I’m fine. I like looking out the windows front and back. Liz says the living room is a mess as I’ve taken out about a dozen toys to play with but I’ve not learned to tidy up yet. Steve bought me a new coat yesterday from the Doghouse just like Megan’s so now I have two.

Love Baxter

Baxter thank you so much for the update, so pleased to see you are settling in well with your folks and big sis Megan.

Wee Alfie has been looking for you, but have told him how you too now have a lovely home.xxx

Willow ( was Daisy) & Tiggs( was Tigger) >>
Posted: 28th January 2014

What a lovely surprise this afternoon, Tiggs and Willow brought mum Rachel for a visit.It was so nice to see them all, and to see the difference that Willow has made to Tiggs. Anytime Tiggs came before with his mum he would just sit beside her and not move. Today he was so different and it was good to see how settled they are together. xx

Rio >>
Posted: 28th January 2014

Hi Ena,

Sorry that I missed your call yesterday, I hope that you are well.

Rio is great. He is a typical young man. He loves running loose about the field and especially amongst the bushes and trees, recall is very good but I really should do more lead work with him. He is not keen on wet and windy days and sometimes has to be encouraged to come on a walk. When it is dry is would spend all day out and about given half a chance.

He is very enthusiastic and finds fun in everything, he can be a little over excited at times when we get visitors but settles quickly. He loves toys especially ropes but is very hard on them and can destroy a supposedly "tough" toy in a couple of minutes (see attached). He however doesn't chew / damage anything else only his toys.

In the house, while not playing, Rio likes to cuddle up and keep warm, he can often be found stretched out along side our hall radiator but his preference is usually on the settee, on somebody's lap, or just curled up on his own.

I keep meaning to pop in with him for a visit but life has been hectic over the last 3 months with my dad in hospital and son ill.

We love Rio he has real character and is an important member of the family,have attached a photo of him with a new toy, tried to get one of him running free but he never stops long enough.

Cheers,

Derek.

Thanks for the update Derek he looks stunning, would love to see you sometime.Hope your dad and son are on the mend now !!

Posted: 27th January 2014

Hi Ena , Frank and friends at Second Chance. It's me Megan, thought I would send you a few pics of me at my new home. It has been a couple of weeks now and I have settled in just fine. I have two new pals as you can see. Meg the black lab stays with me, and Olly the JRT is my aunty's dog. There is another one called Cindy but not got a photo of her yet. Had my first walk off lead this weekend and really enjoyed running through every big muddy puddle I could find, loved chasing Meg through the woods. Will send you an update later on with some more pics of us out and about
Love to you all
Megan xx

Lovely Isla >>
Posted: 25th January 2014

Well who would believe it, six years ago tomorrow, wee took a wee heavily pregnant girl into the kennels her name was Bonnie, Frank and I left the kennels that night at 9-45. I awoke at 12-45 early next morning and said to Frank I'm going up to the kennels to make sure Bonnie is okay, he said hang on i'm coming too so we got our dogs back in the van and headed off. We arrived to find Bonnie had just given birth to a puppy, so we made her as comfortable as we could and she went on to have her puppies.

Isla was the only golden one she was like a wee fur ball. Hasn't she grown into such a beautiful girl, her folks have always brought her back once or twice a year to see us, they just adore her. Sorry you missed your sausage pet we were just so busy, make up for it next time xxxx

We see your big brother Alfie sometimes too, it's funny you were all so different Alfie looks more like a Shepherd xx

Ena has found a photo of me when I was going to my new home as a puppy awwwwwww xx

So Happy Birthday for the 27th January to all Bonnie's pups. xxx
