   Hello,   
      
   I'm desperately searching for a good home within the UK for a Collie cross   
   bitch aged approximately 3 years.   
      
   She came in to rescue kennels in Devon as a dog that had been mistreated in   
   the past. Very nervous, clingy and frightened of loud noises.   
      
   She has been rehomed twice with no success because although she is coming   
   out of herself she will show her teeth if placed in an awkward position of   
   if a well built person approaches her with hands out towards her face. She   
   has not bitten, but I would certainly not place her in a home with young   
   children - just in case.   
      
   The kennels decided that the risk of homing to a third home was too great so   
   they were going to put her down. As the kennel manager I intervened and have   
   taken her home to privately rehome myself. Unfortuantely my tennancy does   
   not allow dogs, otherwise I would take her on myself.   
      
   If anyone knows of a good home, anywhere within the UK then please contact   
   me soon. My number is: 01626 334389. Anyone interested would be welcome to   
   come to my home to see her, or I could deliver her.   
      
   I guess you are all decent animal people on here, so I don't have to stress   
   just how important it is that you take her on for life. Don't take her out   
   of sympathy and please do understand that it will take time and training to   
   to bring her properly out of herself.   
      
   Sincerely,   
   P Richardson   
   Devon, UK.
