    My friend Rob called me today heartbroken as due to family circumstances he has to urgently rehome his 5 month old lab/husky cross bitch Laurel - they live near Bromsgrove although I've offered her a short term home if necessary (BEDFORD). I really can't cope with a 4th dog as much I'd love to take her full time

    There are a few pictures on her facebook page

    She's a lovely pup and responds well to training - please pass my number to anyone who is interested 07852 100480
    thanks
    Carole

    Such a shame Carole. If you don't get any direct replies could you try BRX looks like she could fit well there. I don't know them personally but they always seem to try really hard to match dogs and owners and don't give up. Keeping my fingers crossed for her x

    Just giving this a bump. More people that are aware more chance of a new home for her.
    Perhaps after short term 'foster' care with yourself she could return to her family. Looking at the facebook page, she's obviously loved very much.
    Best of luck helping the family.

    Such sad news...could one of the Moderators pin this until a new home has been found?? Don't want the thread lost in amongst everything else.

    Good Luck & i hope a new home is found ;)

    thanks everyone - she's arriving tonight and as long as my pack are ok with her she'll stay until we find the best place for her. Unfortunately returning to the family won't be an option. I will post more up to date pictures when I get a chance.

    Right I need to dust off my puppy minding brain, I seem to remember 5 month olds are quite lively! ;D

    I would share it to my doggy friends on FB but there isn't anything about rehoming on the page.
    Looks like a lovely dog :'(

    Jacqui - it's just all come up today - I'll post something on barney's page you can share around once we have her here along with a recent set of pictures.

    One of my friends is interested - she has been talking about a lab pup for a while so fingers crossed that will work but her partner is set on a pure bred so it may depend on whether we can get him "just to look"...

    it's rather complicated but the good news is that Laurel doesn't need a new home after all (we hope) thanks for the support from all of you it's been a stressful week for that family. x

    Sounds like a fair bit of upheaval going on there but thankfully not rehoming upheaval x
