Bryn is currently undergoing a 14 day assessment and will be available for re-homing from 01/05/16. Applications are welcome during the assessment period.
Please put in an application in the first instance if you are interested in Bryn. Approved applications will be home checked.
Details of our adoption procedures and adoption application form are here http://www.fourpawsanimalrescue.org.uk/adoption_procedures.html.
Bryn came to us from a loving home when his owner, due to ill health, sadly could no longer look after him. He only arrived with us today but has already started to relax and make himself at home in the house and garden.

He loves to meet other dogs and people when out for a walk, and walks nicely on a lead although of course he would rather be running! He will need a forever home where he will be given training as well as love as he is still young and has some typical naughty whippet habits such as ‘counter surfing’ for food!
Bryn seems to be a gentle, sweet boy and we will update his thread regularly as we get to know him.

:-* :-* :-* :-* I see you've found your fav place to have a nap ;), you look soooo relaxed already booootiul boy :-*
-
I met this gorgeous boy yesterday and he magnificent, I see he has made him self at home very quickly very chillaxed clever boy :) :) :) :) :)
-
This fellas a little beauty! We met him yesterday...woulda loved to have given him a fuss. Only Dexter wasn't so keen! ;)
-
Bryn is a total sweetheart, though a little bit naughty at times. He's absolutely obsessed with food at the moment and hangs around the kitchen like a demon. You simply can't leave any food in reach or it will be gone quick as a flash! He is rather frisky with Dylan sometimes, and doesn't seem to understand when Dylan tells him off, however we're taking him to be neutered on Thursday, so that might calm him down a bit. Whenever we go out for walks people fall in love with his gentle face and sweet temperament and he gets lots of fuss - which he loves. :luv:
Here are a few photos of this gorgeous boy chilling in his foster home.

The boys are tired after this morning's walk!

Do you have any food? I'm faint with hunger!
-
Bless him, he's gorgeous!
-
:-* :-* :-* :-*Bryn, you're too innocent looking, with that gorjuss face & nature you are going to get away with anything ;) angel.gif :-*
-
He sounds like a typical whippety he is gorgeous :) :) :) :) :) :)
-
Wish lovely Bryn luck today as he has a trip to the vets. Chicken & rice for tea, Bryn - something to look forward to!
-
:-* :-* :-* :-* Bryn you may feel a "bit strange" when you wake up but chicken/rice is luffly plus put on your "sorry for myself" face & milk it for all your worth ;) :-* :-* :-* :-*
-
Poor Bryn! When he went to the vet today they found his temperature was up and think he has a gastric infection, so lots of chicken and rice but no castration for another week.
-
Aw Bryn, a bit of a reprieve but chicken & rice anyway, I hope you're infection will clear up very soon. :-*
-
Poor Bryn still has a bad stomach, so he hasn't been castrated yet and is on antibiotics (and chicken and rice!) Not all bad news for this boy though. He has rehoming interest and hopefully won't have to wait long for his forever home.

Who could resist that face?
-
Bryn is finding these evenings a bit chilly for his liking!

Fingers crossed for the homecheck tomorrow!
-
I love it when the sight hounds curl up like that it looks so cute :) :) :)
-
Stella, this might sound a bit random, but some dogs are sensitive to chicken. Would it be worth trying him on something like white fish & plain mashed potato to see if that helps. Also ProKolin if you have any x

Thanks Fran. Funnily enough my friend's spaniel has recently been diagnosed as sensitive to chicken (she gave us a big bag of dog food that he can't eat - Dylan will love it!) so we're going to try Bryn on fish & rice instead. If he's still not right we'll try fish & potato. Poor love is hungry all the time too so it's a constant battle to stop him eating things he shouldn't! He's on antibiotics until tomorrow & has had a course of Promax paste so fingers crossed he'll soon be ok!
-
Bryn had a lovely walk in the bluebell woods of Fforest fawr yesterday - he's not so impressed with today's rain however!

-
He's looking really well Stella, lovely shiny coat :)
-
No we were there today I wish we had bumped into you to see Bryn and lovely Dylan.
-
Finally Bryn's stomach is well enough for him to have his 'little boy operation'. Honestly Bryn you'll be better off without them! Extra cuddles tonight :-*
-
That's really good news, glad he's feeling better x
-
The boy is home, safe & sound. He made a lot of human friends at the vets - one lady was so smitten she wanted to adopt him! Bless him - he does love a cuddle! He's now feeling a little sorry for himself but will no doubt be back to full, bouncy fitness tomorrow.

:-* I'm not surprised the lady loved him, I hope he'll feel more perky tomorrow. :-*

-
Bryn you are such an elegant boy gorgeous :) :) :)
-
He walks really nicely on the lead, but can't wait to be able to run and chase again when his stitches come out:

He likes to relax on the sofa
(http://i1288.photobucket.com/albums/b500/Stella_Dunstone/Bryn/2016-05-04%2021.34.13_zpsez4e3f6z.jpg) (http://s1288.photobucket.com/user/Stella_Dunstone/media/Bryn/2016-05-04%2021.34.13_zpsez4e3f6z.jpg.html)
and snuggles up to Dylan when he's asleep
(http://i1288.photobucket.com/albums/b500/Stella_Dunstone/Bryn/2016-05-04%2018.53.04_zpsr96hf1jj.jpg) (http://s1288.photobucket.com/user/Stella_Dunstone/media/Bryn/2016-05-04%2018.53.04_zpsr96hf1jj.jpg.html)
He still has some issues with a sensitive stomach that we're trying to solve, but he's a sweet natured, loving boy who adores all people and other dogs and really deserves a happy forever home, preferably with a breed aware family.
