This is a very important messagage. I have just worked with the Golden Retriever Rescue to get a puppy out of a very unsuitable home. The gentleman concerned has an older dog that is ok but the man had no idea how to look after a young puppy and thought that you had to kick and hit them to teach them a lesson. I wont go into the whole story but the pup is now safely in a foster home being reassessed.

My warning to you all is that the man has now told someone that he will be looking for a older pup about 6-8 months because that will be easier. He lives in West Sussex. I wont post a name here but if anyone is concerned you can e-mail me direct.

I can see the reasoning for your post

thanx for the warning

Just to let you know that this pup is fine. New homes are being assessed and he should shortly be with his new family.

This pup had been also deprived of food because he kept pooing and also the water taken up because he kept weeing, and did I want to buy a muzzle of him that he used when he went out to stop the pup chewing. The pup is 14 weeks.
