01/07/19 – Enzo has been adopted! Hooray!

Enzo is a big, gentle Mastiff boy of 11 years, in the care of Rescue Remedies at boarding kennels in Guildford, Surrey. Sadly, his owner lost his home and so both found themselves homeless. With nowhere for Enzo, his owner spent a whole day at a vets, who tried to find Enzo an emergency rescue place. Rescue Remedies offered him place, saving his life.

One person who’s walked Enzo had this to say, “Lucky me had the gorgeous Enzo on my walking list today. It was the first time I’d met him and he was a little reserved when I entered his kennel but a couple of bits of sausage soon sorted our introduction. Enzo is very confused as to why he’s ended up in the scary place and every time a dog barked he jumped bless him.

“Enzo is the most darling gentle boy. He walks very well on lead and just like to slowly plod along taking in the sights and smells. There is still plenty of life in the old boy yet though and he went for a lovely long walk today albeit at a slightly slower pace.”

Another said, “Enzo is completely stunned to find himself in kennels, it’s not an environment he is used to and he’s a bit scared by the whole experience. Once I’d convinced him I was alright and we’d have a lovely time together we had a gentle plod around the island in the sunshine. I adore older dogs so an hour with Enzo was quite the treat. He’s big but gentle, doesn’t want to be bothered by other dogs, likes a slow potter and appreciates a bit of encouragement and reassurance.”

And another said, “Kennels are indeed a big shock for this gentle old soul but he is trying to make sense of it with our help. Our first walk together today and slowly did it. It took a wee while for Enzo to realise that I really wanted to be his friend but boy, what an honour when he came round to wanting to be close to me. I am used to big but gentle dogs and they really are very special to hang out with.

“As well as a plod in the sunshine I also took Enzo to the paddock for a pootle and that’s exactly what it was. He had no interest in playing with a ball but we just sat together in the sunshine. He made little puppy whimpers and wagged his tail like mad at his kennel mates when they got close by. A majestic soul who so deserves a comfy sofa to lounge on at his time of life.”
