Scruffy has come to us due to owner being too unwell to care for him and herself. The elderly owner collapsed in the street with emphasyma and spiritwind rushed immediately to get the dog. This was a mega emergency and she dropped everything to go and rescue him.

He lacks Basic commands eg; sit, come, stay, heel.
i will work with him to try and get them together.

Scruffy is very fidgety in the car so will need a harness
that connects to seatbelt.

His is a very lively puppy, playful and kinda barks to
get you to play.

He will let you know if he needs to go out for his ones n twos.

owner has told me also that he cant be left for long periods of time, as he ones n twos everywhere and rolls in it.
he will only sleep in the bed with you, was told he sleeps above your head (will find out and let you know more)
Scruffy will eat wet or dryed food.

He has seperation anxiety. Pees and poos everywhere and this will have to$ be worked on. He will have to go to puppy classes with his new slave.

OMG he is such a cutie..... that all works out well for him

well done spirtwind for rushing to rescue this little one he looks a sweetheart but i know how much hard work he will be not just in his training but at that age they r in to all sorts of mischief!

Awwww, Sounds like Scruffy will need lots of work, which i have no doubt he will get, I am sure he will be a proper little gentleman by the time it comes for his forever home. x

I have read all that is posted for this littel chap and very much would like to adopt him. i am currently unemployed so can give him my full attention and the training he needs. he is such a cutie !!!1

If you are interested you will need to fill out the adoption form if you haven't done so already.

If not you can find it here http://www.yorkieandtoybreedrescue.co.uk/adopt.html

Sorry if I'm telling you something you already know

Update i got about 3 hours sleep last night
Oscar and sruffy where moving about to see who could get close enough to me in bed
so in the end i layed in the middle of the bed and held one on each side of me that seem to work.
Scruffy was alittle unsettled and wimpered alittle i'm sure things will settle over the next few days.
i have been working with him on basic comands ( been using chicken becuz his old owner gave him loads of dog treats in the day so normal dog treats wasnt working)

I have taken him out on the lead along with Oscar and that seems to help and is getting better each time we have been out.
The reason i have been taking him out (or just in the garden) just to get him to understand more that is where he needs to go bathroom.
so far i have only had one mishap from him.

Even tho Scruffy is still very much a pup he is a very cute boy and will make a great dog with the right love and traning.
well thats it for now
for those who want to adopt be sure to fill in the paper work and get it sent off

just remember you can put in for more than one at a time and the one who makes your requirement will be contacted.

Good Luck all
more soon

Oscar and Scruffy playing with a stuffed toy

what a happy little face he has, i'm sure he'll find his new slave soon.

What an absolutely sweetie. Hopefully his separation anxiety can be worked on since he is so young. I would love to adopt this chap if I could, but I will have to wait a few months yet. No doubt he will have countless people fighting over him before then!

your doing a great job...well done

carole

Please remember that whilst were are all able to fall in love at first sight with some of these little Scruffy and the other new dogs have only just come into our care. He is currently undergoing his assessment period with his foster carer. This is for two weeks where he will be assessed to see if he has any issues, likes and dislikes.

Please be advised that a dogs personality can change during this time. You are very welcome to send in application forms for any of our dogs but non are looked at until the dogs assessment period is coming to an end

Thank you for the heads-up. I'm aware of the process though and don't mind how long it takes to find the dog that's most suited. It will be worth the wait.

Sounds like you are doing a great job spiritswind. Will look forward to hearing how scruffy develops, it's amazing how dogs start to learn what is expected, and he so young. He will be a lovely dog with a few of his issues sorted out. Good on yer

Before he goes any where if this little man has any 'doodles' they will have to come off .
Could you let Carole know if he has any please & also names of any vets in/near you so we can call to arrange some rescue rates for it
Thank you for doing the mercy dash.

P.S.
Any way we can change his name please. He really is too good looking to be a 'Scruffy'
Spiritwind as his carer you get that job

yorkiegirl..Before he goes any where if this little man has any 'doodles' they will have to come off

Now thats a new word for them.......


By the way Sue your supposed to be resting...

Or has Amber : smothered you in so many kisses .....she has wakened you..

Hi all

Hes getting alot better on the lead now, slowly doing sitting on command
he seems to be settling alot better.
i do have more pics but i'll do them later. albeing well the internet stays working lol


And Sue your ment to be resting love tut tut

He is lovely looking, and i just love the video of the two of them playing, they look so happy with their waggy tails. And yes with the person behind on the Wii Fit

You doing a great job, and well done for the emergency dash for him, bet your kids are loving having these two around.

yeah, scruffy should be renamed ' SMILER '

Many thanks to spiritswind1975 for doing such a fantastic job with young Scruffy,I totally agree with ellejay about the video, Whats a Wii Fit by the way? (Just joking)... He must be a really adaptable young man to settledown so quickly, shame about the 'doodles' OUCH!
Have just filled in an adoption form for him, but would be happy for him to go to any happy forever family.

Smiler or Buffy are better names

i could just see scruffy running amok with mine.
couldn't ask son yesterday. now got to wait for
him to get home today.just love to see dogs running
around and having fun. the park is 2mins. walking
distance from me.

Thank you for the update, spiritswind. Looks like he's having fun. Hope he doesn't lose the spring in his step when he finds out he's waving goodbye to his 'doodles'. Bless him.

Scruffy has come along way since i picked him up on wed
Hes great on the lead, sits 9 out of 10 when asked.
He now Barks or sits by the door to go out to do his bussness, if he needs to go out in the night he licks your face (as he sleeps at the bottom of the bed he wont sleep in his own bed).

i have been able to leave him on his own for an hour with out any mishaps (i put him in the kitchen well cutting the grass).

Scruffy along with Oscar have both be great with the kids in the street when they have come round to play with my Girl, they lay there and soak up all the fusses that they have been given.

well thats all i can think of at this moment in time another update soon
