Today My Forever Home came to Wednesfield, we had a little stand in the Just for Pets store on the Bentley Bridge estate and it was a really lovely couple of hours. We took our two remaining kittens who went down a storm as you can imagine, and our lovely staffy x pup Angel, who … Read more…

On Wednesday we really needed our kittens to have their first vaccinations done, and thought as the low-cost vets we’d been recommended were open until 7pm, we had plenty of time to get there… well we reckoned without the nice person who had destroyed the Just for Pets store sign on the Bentley Bridge Industrial … Read more…

There is nothing I love more than seeing a dog have a fabulous time running around off-lead – and boy does Welly enjoy his time over the fields, even if he is somewhat deluded… he’s convinced he’s going to beat Delilah every single day! I’ll let you see the reality for yourself in the short … Read more…

Over the next few weeks before we depart, I’d like you to get to know more about Welly, and why we’re making this mammoth trip together. He is a complete character, as are so many Staffordshire Bull Terriers, affectionately shortened to ‘staffies’. It makes sense to start with one of his morning quirks

At some stupid early hour this morning I posted a request on my local Freeworld group for items to sell at a car boot, and within just a few hours Karen had answered. Tonight Rich and I met her to collect a veritable feast of goodies, I haven’t had a chance to go through it … Read more…

This very pretty, very human (but NOT dog lol) friendly young boy took up residence on the drive of one of our supporter’s homes last week – is there anyone local to Mellish Road who knows him please? Or if you have friends in Walsall/surroundings, could you maybe share him please?
