Perfect pair, Branca and Fudge, are two wonderful dogs but, sadly, their current owner is in a home receiving palliative care and all she wants is to see her beloved dogs in a new home. Branca was adopted from Setter Brittany and Pointer Rescue (SeBPRA) about 4 years ago and Fudge has been her buddy ever since. They have lived in a very loving household and been trained to a high standard, but they urgently need a new loving home together and will not be split up.
Branca is a gorgeous, 10 year old English setter (born 20/7/2011). She’s an absolute superstar, a registered PAT dog who’s visited lots of patients in care homes, always bringing a smile to their faces. She loves a cuddle at home and a trot on the beach too. She’s a very happy girl, great with everybody and a total sweetheart. She’s got some hip dysplasia which is managed with meds now she’s a bit older but otherwise in great shape and still enjoys her daily walks. Branca is the ‘unicorn’ rescue setter: she’s easy-going, not prey driven, walks well on her lead and happy with everybody and everything.
The very handsome Fudge is 9 years old (born 26.12.2012). He’s obsessed with cuddles. He loves to cosy up at home and will lick you to death if given the chance. This former Flyball dog also adores balls of course and will happily play fetch for as long as you’ll let him. He can be uneasy with strange dogs on walks and nervous of strangers entering the home; he will be very likely to bark loudly until he gets to know them and then he will absolutely love them. His owner has put in a lot of work; he now happily walks past dogs as long as they don’t crowd him, and he will play around dogs he knows well too. He is very sensitive and very clever and needs a gentle and understanding adopter to bring out the best in him. He really is a star and at 9, he’s still so much fun and has lots of adventures left in him. Fudge is a clever cookie, absolute adores any brain games and figures them out really quickly. He’s got good recall, especially if he’s playing with his ball.
Branca and Fudge have both lived with cats. They’re well-behaved in the house and love a good snooze after their walk. Their ideal home would be a rural home with somebody around most of the day as they are used to and love human company, perhaps a retired couple.
