💙Tubby Custard💙
It’s the news we’ve all been waiting for… our little Tubby superstar is now available for adoption 🥰
Just look at the difference two weeks with us has made to the little lad who arrived so scared & bewildered 🥹 Form an orderly queue..
As a mark of respect for a true animal lover & advocate for bull breeds, we will be quiet today as we reflect on the life & hard work of Paul O'Grady, with his love of dogs and his sense of humour. Such a sad loss,may he rest in eternal peace. Hope the pack is waiting OTRB 🌈♥️🐾
Sometimes in rescue, there are some dogs that need a little more care and attention behind the scenes.
One of these dogs is our little Ninja 🐾 He just wanted to pop onto the account to say hello and that he’s still in our care and being looked after by us..... 1/2
Goodnight me pals, tomorrows another day and who knows me new family might see me.
Pleeze keep sharing me, I do need a special home but I’m so very worth it 😁
Fanks as always, Albert 👅❤️

As you can imagine we are all heartbroken at SSC,the only reason we save our Seniors is to ensure they have a better life. We give all our energy and time to make sure they have the best and never ever suffer. We really can't believe how sad this outcome has been for Roxy 😞😢🌈
So if I could just ask for a big push for our Bruce today that would he amazing! We can't believe how little interest there has been in him 😔
So let's make today Bruce's day and let's get him out there for the world to see please 🙏

ICYMI This is Bronson 🥰
He arrived at our Stoke Kennels on Wednesday & is slowly settling in although he is still quite stressed from being dumped by his family at the vets,being sent to the pound and then coming to us. So time will be needed to help him unpack his baggage 🤗❤
💔 I’m still here guys, still doing my time 💔
I’ve been here for nine months now, my aunties love me lots and take good care of me but it’s not the same as having a home of my own.
There’s got to be a loving family with a comfy sofa out there for me, right? 🤞🏻
Albert xoxox
Some sad news 😢
Yesterday, we said goodbye to Grandad Kai 💔 he had his sardines,went for a little potter through his favourite woods, then fell asleep peacefully at the vets with both of us by his side. A very sad decision but we knew in our hearts that the time was right 💔🌈
I'm feeling sad, I'm still in kennels and still waiting for my forever home, please will you help me find it? Thank you 😊 Lots of love n staffy hugs, Poppy aka cutie patootie 😍😍😍

Good morning Staffy Lovers,I have some sad news to share with you today..
Our dear sweet Gentleman Jack left us yesterday to be reunited with his owner OTRB 🌈😢He let his frosty mum Joy know that the time was right. He was pain free & left us with dignity knowing he was loved ❤
Sunday strolls with our boy Zeus!
He’s taken to the stroller so well. It’s wonderful to be able to get a little walk in and then pop him in here so he can still take all the sights and sounds in.
We think he looks very content in his race car red wagon ❤️🐶🏎️
Who agrees? 😍
