Things at EGLR HQ are as busy as ever, dogs are still coming in thick and fast. On the up side, rehoming is holding up. We have rehomed a couple of our long stayers (Casper & Amber) and all but 1 of Amber's pups, and we have definately saved the best puppy for last, Lily is a little sweetheart.
We are in urgent need of more volunteers, as the rescue is getting busier we are struggling to keep up. We have plenty of opportunities, even if you can only spare an hour here and there. We are crying out for someone to help us with our sponsor dog scheme. this helps us raise vital funds for the rescue, which at the moment are desperately needed. We are seeing more and more dogs coming in to our care who have been kept in horrific circumstances, which has meant a sharp increase in our vet bills (which were already fairly depressing!).
We also need more foster homes; with more and more dogs coming in we are having to use kennels to get them to safety which is also costing us money. So, if you have the time and space in your home to help keep these dogs safe and loved, or for more information on any other volunteering opportunities please give Pip a call NOW!!
We rely entirely on volunteers for everything we do so even if you can only spare a few hours to transport some dogs or organise a fundraiser in your area please give us a call.

Calling all long haired lurcher owners |
|
Hi all,
We have recently been contacted by and artist who is looking for rough coat / long haired lurchers. She wants to paint these dogs for an exhibition in March and will donate one of the pieces to EGLR to auction to raise funds. So, if you live in the London / Hertfordshire area and fancy seeing your dog's picture adorning a gallery wall please get in contact with the artist www.katewyatt.co.uk |

A New year message from Pip |
|
Every Christmas its the same; all rescues struggle with too many dogs, not enough homes, dogs being put down in stray pounds and no space to get them in. But this Christmas was definitely the worst I have known in our 21 years.

Little Miss Sparkly's New Year Wish |
|
We just wanted to give you an update on Little Miss Sparkley. She is settling in well to her new foster home, she has been having short walks and is very good on the lead.
Like Pip says, she is just adorable; and loves nothing more than a fuss and a cuddle. She is at her most content chilling out on the sofa next to the radiator. She craves fuss and follows me around the house, I woke up the other night to find her snuggled up on the end of my bed. I didnt have the heart to move her she looked so cute. She doesnt like being left alone so I think her new owners will need to have lots of time to share with her.
She told me after she finished opening her Christmas presents, all she wished for this Christmas was a new forever home and she hoped she would get one soon. Can you help us make Miss Sparkly's Christmas wish come true?

Hi all,
This week has been just as manic as last with dogs coming in thick and fast. Please keep an eye on our adoption pages to see what we have coming in. We are trying to keep the adoption pages as up to date as possible but if there are no suitable dogs on there please call us. We may have your perfect dog but haven't managed to get them on the web yet.
Thank you all so much for your kind donations of indoor kennels and food. We now have 5 indoor kennels (hurrah) but unfortunately have no where to put any more! We do still need food though (hint hint) the pesky dogs just keep eating it!!!
