Remember Quin?
Back to Quin's Quest
This came in the Guide
Dogs newsletter. Apparently Quin's first placement didn't
work out so...
"Another term at
school completed, and bingo, we found Desmond.
We took two dogs
along for Desmond to try, but once he'd tried Quin, he told
us straight away; "He's the one for me." And when we went to
visit them last week, we could see why. Quin has not only
changed Desmond's life, but he's given the whole family
their independence back. Desmond goes to work, visits
friends, and his wife Sam can go out and do her thing too,
without having to worry about leaving Desmond alone. Desmond
and Sam are foster parents, and they said of Quin "Some of
our children have had a pretty rubbish start in life, but
Quin's great with them, really therapeutic, and really helps
to build their confidence." What an absolute star. And it
just goes to show that there's someone out there for
everyone!

What's more, Quin has met
Peanut the Chihuahua!
Quin's always loved other
pets, but we think he’s really met his match this time! The whole
time we were there, Peanut was running circles around Quin, licking
him, desperate to play. Desmond told us they're inseparable, but
Peanut's still top dog, despite his little size! We think they make
a very handsome couple!" |

Meanwhile, back in Little Eversden
with Gillian and Tony, Nelson is clearly seeing himself as rather
special. Here he is on 23rd April 2012. Hasn't he grown?

His puppy training is going according to plan. If you spot him out
and about, have a chat.
Nelson prepares to follow Quin, Irwin, and
Buckie into a life of service. How satisfying it must be for Gillian
and Tony to know they have contributed to the transformation of a
life. (DF) |
