Daisy has been with us for just about 5 months now. She is such a gorgeous lil thing. She has come out of her shell and plays all the time with our other dog Bó. She is no longer as nervous as she was, she will now approach people instead of hiding and running away. Her personality is beginning to shine through. She loves her sleep,the park, the water and her pets. She just wants to be near you always. She is so good on the lead and in the house, so placid! Which is great as it complments our other less placid slightly crazy hyper dog Bó The two girls are great company for each other and love chasing one another around the garden and sleeping by our feet.

Thank you so much for giving us the chance to adopt Daisy.

We will take good care of her and mind her always

He’s a little character afraid of nothing. We’ve even seen him swipe at Benjamin,
all 16 stone of him.

His only vice is Chicken. I’d say if you left him a full cooked chicken he’d
eat it all.

We reckon he may end up bigger than the terriers at the rate he’s growing….

Its Happy Ending Story Time!

 We would love to hear from you if you have adopted an animal from us and are willing to share their happy story. Just email us your pets story and a picture of them in their new home and we will publish it on our website.

Our email is info@animalfoundation.ie.

 Look forward to hearing from you

This is Murray who came to us from K.A .F a few months ago.  He has grown a bit since then and likes nothing better than to relax on his rug.

 Special thanks to Michele and Lisa at K.A.F.

 Best Regards
Tony and Mary

 We adopted Patience the cat earlier this month and he’s settling in really well. He’s certainly living up to his name and loves nothing more than getting lots of cuddles from our 3 boys. They’ve even given him his very own spot on the couch – a real honour, especially as I haven’t managed to secure one yet!

Thanks a million to you all at the foundation for your hard work and the time you put in. : )

Lilly and my other dog Dave have been best friends since we adopted Lilly from KAF last September. Lilly is a bundle of energy she is still a pup at 18 months but she brings out the pup in Dave who is 7. They do everything together, they love playing …chasing in the garden and giving each other kisses, play fighting and cuddling on the couch after a long day getting up to mischief. It only took Lilly a couple of months to adjust to being a pet, she was “wild” at first but nothing a small bit of training and encouragement couldn’t sort out We can’t imagine life without her and we know Dave would be lost without her, they are a match made in heaven, and we’ve never looked back since adopting her.

Thanks for giving us Lilly x x

“Jiggins” (renamed from Toby) came to us from the Foundation on 25th January 2011 and has brought nothing but happiness and joy to our family. He is just the sweetest dog and we’re all just mad about him. We truly couldn’t have asked for anything more when it comes to this great little fella.

Jiggins is extremely kind and gentle with the kids, even taking dog biscuits carefully from my 20 month old daughter’s hand.  My daughter, by the way now pretends she’s a dog, crawling after Jiggins and bringing him his toys and now tries to eat her own dinner face first with no hands….it’s a real hoot!.

He adores his nightly cuddle time sitting (and snoring) between my husband and I while getting hours of tummy rubs before bed. I think his favourite time of the day is bedtime, where I read stories to “all” of my babies.  He cuddles in with the kids and has a look of pure bliss about him with all of the attention.

With a bit of TLC and patience he’s getting really good on his lead and has picked up “sit” and “shake” with ease! He’s so affectionate and loving and he’s so happy and eager to please.  It’s been a real privilege watching this fella warm up, gain confidence and start wagging his tail! 

 A sincere thank you from the bottom of our hearts to the Kildare Animal Foundation for taking in and caring for our Jiggins and an extra special thank you to Ute from Ace Pet Services for making his ‘welcome home’ so easy and stress free for the little guy!

 He has truly made our happy house a happy home!
 
Kindest regards,
Ross, Dona, Jack and Lily-Clare Mills

Our story is about Troy. We came across this
 photo of him from this time last year in the snow.  We have him since
April/May 2009 I think everyone  from the shelter  would remember  Troy as he
was a handful at the best of times (hence the nickname we gave him,
Troyasauris) but he is so good now we love him & it wouldn’t  be the same
without him.

P.S. you can teach an old dog new tricks, Troy even sits an
plays now.

We adopted Rico in 2002, he’s still a much loved part of our family and king of the castle!
