We visited the home yesterday, and boy weren't we in for a surprise! We seen Angel on the day she arrived at the home, sad eyes and a bag of bones..It upset me seeing her, but today I had to take a second glance when we walked past her kennel! She is thriving, her she has some fat on her which is brilliant and those sad eyes now have a sparkle again. It was so lovely to see her looking 100% better than she did on day one. Well done CDH, looking forward to seeing her on her own forever sofa soon x

I got to walk lovely Angel this morning, I too saw this beautiful girl when she came in and it brought a tear (of joy) to my eye this morning seeing the transformation in her in such a short time, she's looking absolutely amazing! She was a little reticent at first walking out the gate and down the lane with me, we had to keep stopping for her to look back a few times but once we built up some pace she was more than happy to follow and enjoy her walk. She's such a sensitive soul, goodness knows what she's been through and yet she has such a wonderful, trusting nature, looking to her walker for reassurance and a positive word, you Just want to keep praising this girl and building up her confidence. She was more than happy to return to the home after our wet but lovely walk, let me towel dry her and she even posed for a pic or two in the foyer for a member of staff to take a pic of her looking so good. She will make a loyal and loving companion to the right person.

I finally got to meet Miss Angel today! My goodness she was worth the wait. She is looking incredible now, sooo much better than the first pics of her. It really does bring tears to your eyes, to see her soo full of love and life You can still see her ribs a little when she walks her wiggly walk, but she is looking soo much healthier. She just needs to tone it up now (Which is what I say to myself everyday...I havent managed it yet ) She has the most gorgeous glossy fur, and such a beautiful colour too. I honestly did not recognise her when she came out. We only had a shortish walk (about 25-35mins) Which included many snuggles, and me talking to her like a baby....which I know she appreciated She is soooo gorgeous, how someone could have mistreated this girl is completely beyond me! She has the most amazing and infectious smile. She wanted to sniff every dog she saw, and would not budge until they went last her! I am completely besotted...as I knew I would be from the first pic I ever saw of her! If only my circumstances were different...I would take this girl on myself in a heartbeat, and without question! I got incredibly snap happy with this lady... im soo in loveeee! Investigating.... Gorrrrgeous girl Enjoying a back scratch... Angel says please ignore her drool...she was rather warm

Angel was so much more confident running out for her morning walk with me today, she seemed excited and keen to go and only stopped to look back at the gate one time, which is a vast improvement on the other day. Even though she was excited and keen for walkies she is great walking on the slip lead, no pulling and just wants to enjoy and take everything in around her. She was great passing other, more noisy dogs, on the lane and although showed some positive signs of wanting to say hello, nothing negative to say about her behaviour at all. I didn't attempt any photos today as I know they wouldn't be a patch on yours (Jellitot)lol, love seeing them keep them coming, you are a natural

I had a fantastic walk with the beautiful Angel today. The staff and vols have done so much for her and it shows. She has truly come on in leaps and bounds and is enjoying going out for her walks. She holds her tail aloft with pride as she scuttles off down the lane on her walk. She is happy to be out and good around traffic and everything really. She did jump a little when a very loud lorry came from behind us, but to be honest, so did I. She has been transformed into an absolute beauty. You need to see her to really appreciate her.

Guess who got walkies with this gorgeous lady again todayyyy! ....Yeah thats right meeee! She is an absolute miracle, she is looking soo much better everytime I see her Today she had alot more energy, she had a 50min walk out with me. That being said, she did not pull me once! Miss Angel is becoming a big beautiful lady I stopped with her at the picnic bench, where she had some water...and a biscuit treat! The same treat she snubbed last time I walked her, she did an amazing sit for today! I did even know she could do sit, and I didnt even ask! This girl is incredible She took the biscuit treat beautifully. I adore this girl, she is soo happy go lucky. She wants to say hello to everyone! She was fascinated by people bikeriding, im sure she fancies a go herself! (teehee!) Someone snap this lovely lady up...you wont regret it!

What a beautiful lady Angel has become. She has blossomed since being at CDH. She now has a spring in her step and is a happy little lady! Angel walks very well on the lead and is simply happy to be out and about. She needs a home where she can settle in and settle down to a proper forever home life.

I cannot believe that this little lady has not been snapped up yet. Don't let this lovely little lady get away! Go see her, walk her, and take her home!

I walked Angel for the first time yesterday and what a lovely dog she has blossomed into She walked beautifully until we crossed over the road at the lights and then seemed a little hesitant but with some reassurance and lots of sniffs she decided to walk on a bit further! We stopped at the picnic table and she was so patient with me whilst I had a drink, she didn't want one herself but was happy to sit and have some smooths, and she has a fantastic smile www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=10152233463176946&l=6d9dd04c7a

I havn't walked this lovely girl in a while so I couldn't wait to see her today, we've had many lovely walks together in the past but I have to say today wasn't the best. She was great leaving the home, along the lane and then I decided to take her up passed the road works as I intended to walk along the trail but it was very noisy and think it just spooked her a bit, so she didn't want to go any further. So we promptly turned around and made our way back along the quieter side of the road, from then on she Just seemed a bit distracted and showing me she was wanting to return, and it was very warm so maybe she was Just having one of those days which we all have from time to time. Definitely my fault AND those noisy workmen, next time we'll aim for a much quietr more enjoyable walk Angel

Angel is absolutely gorgeous, and a walking miracle thinking back to how she arrived. Claire and I gave her some time in the garden with Boomer and she had an absolute ball! Although Angel barks a bit while she is in her kennel, when she's out she's very calm and laid back!

We had a lovely time with both Angel and Boomer today, a lovely parallel walk then chill out in the garden whilst Ricki n I did some tidying up in the garden. These two pooches are fabulous together and so great to see. Angel is a real gem and such a lovely personality.

Angel has such a saucy gorgeous looking face - she's transformed in such a short while - saying that, I really thought she'd be on her forever sofa by now - she seems to have it all going for her - maybe this weekend - fingers and paws crossed! Love her foxy red & glossy black coat!! She's an autumn dog, her time for a new home is very very soon!!
