PWD, Pointer and Alentejo x desparatly seeking new homes
Hi
My family and I are moving back to the UK at the begining of March. I have been living here for five years and during this time we have rescued many dogs.
I have put adverts up everywhere for our dogs but they still remain at home. I would love to take them with us but just cannot afford it and I do not have the time, as this move has had to happen very quickly because a member of my family is very ill.
I have three dogs for rehoming.
Oscar is a pure portuguese waterdog, longhaired, not castrated, around 22 months old. He is fantasic with our three children (who are 3,2, and1).He is very typical in his traits, very high energy, intelligent, loving and loyal. He is awonderfully friendly dog who needs a good home and someone to love him and give him the attention he wants and needs
Bronco is an English Pointer (though crossed very slightly). He is around three years old. We rescued him from a place in Lagos where he had spent all of his life. He is castrated. Great with children but can be a bit grumpy around very young children who pull at his ears. Loves to lie by the fire relaxing and will stick to you like glue while your out and about. He is the most loyal of them all to our family. He is a cherised loved family pet who will be sadly missed. Can be energetic but seems to know that there is atime and a place for these things. Gets on with other animals after a setteling in period but is lovely with other dogs. He is brown and white markings. He really cannot go back to any kkind of sanctuary. He will not fair very well. He will get depressed and very very sad.
Badger is an Alentejo x. A very large dog of less than one year. He is very playful (owing to his age). He is an outside dog, though does not live permantly on a chain. He is a great guard dog. because of his size. We also rescued him from a very miserable life on the street where he would have died had we not taken him. No sancturies will take him because of his size. All he wants from his new home. Is a warm dry bed, a daily meal and someone to occasionaly give him a pat and some attention. In return he will protect your family, house and be a faithful friend.
If you could offer anyone of these wonderful family pets a new and loving hoome in this desparate situation then please contact us. Our phone number is 927231713
I have lots of photos of all of them I can email.

Suppose that would be helpful to know. We are in Monchique though we are desparate so if someone was sure they would take one of them just by the photos we would happily transport them. We took our pig to the Alentejo the other week.

Re: PWD, Pointer and Alentejo x desparatly seeking new homes
We already have 2 PWD's, both re-homed and happy. I am not sure how we would cope with 3! How is he with other male dogs? (Other than yours) We also have a German Sheppard who is top dog!
Shame you got rid of the pig, could have helped there!

Re: PWD, Pointer and Alentejo x desparatly seeking new homes
zanzina - I have emailed you with the photos of the dogs and little it of extra info on Oscar the PWD. Thanks for you help
Mike- Hi, Oscar is good with other dogs. Bronco is top dog in our house (always has been). Oscar has never tried to challenge him for it. He can be a bit frightened at first around them and tends to hide from them. He has never started a fight but I do have to admit he can be very cheeky and can wind the others up. If a fight ever breaks out its him that is trying to get away. I only know this from seeing him with our Alentejo x who does not like Oscar one bit. He is not dominant at all but can been very demanding for attention from humans. Its all pretty typical traits of a PWD. HE loves the ladys now though (bit of a testosterone teenager at the moment)

Good! Now the others need to get lucky. I think the forum allows you to put at least one picture of each, why don't you do that?

Bronco the Pointer went to his new home in Faro yesterday. He has gone to a Greyhound breeder who wanted a male to keep his female German Pointer company. Thanks to everyone. Just one more to go
