Saffy's fosterers went on holiday and left Saffy in Dee's hands while they were away. They are back and reunited. Here is their update ...

"Well Dee's little angel is back in Hampton with us and we have missed her soooo much. She was very excited to see us but also very sad to say goodbye to Dee. Thank you so much Dee for taking her back while we were away, we know it wasn't ideal for you but we hope that the love and cuddles Saffy shared with you during the three weeks have made you smile and we know her funny little ways have made you laugh. Big hugs from us both and of course Saffy xxx

When we arrived at Dees, Saffy was full of it and spent the whole time running around doing her whirling dervish impression. Dee said when you get her home she is going to collapse and sleep so you should have a quiet evening……….ummmmmm. We opened the front door of our house, Saffy was first in. She did a tour of the house and the garden to check everything was as it should be and then it was playtime. Play, play, play, quick stop for dinner and then play again. Snow drifts and scalped tennis balls everywhere!!! Eventually, at 10.30 we said, that's it Saffy we need to go to bed. She didn't seem too keen but gave in and we tucked her up in her bed. Within 2 minutes she had big red droopy eyes and another minute later she was snoring!!! She didn't wake up until 11.00am the next morning!!! Guess she was just a little tired!!!

Tuesday was the first day back at work for us all and Saffy and Julie found it very tiring. This was the scene at 5.30pm………both of them, on Saffy's bed, snoring away.



Saffy settles very quickly and is happy as long as she is safe and loved………which she is, always. We are so pleased to have her back in our home and we have missed her very much but what we have experienced with Saffy, the love, the cuddles, the laughter, the fun and the companionship should be being experienced by her forever family. Please don't overlook this very special little girl. She is adorable, a dream to be with and has so much to give her special family.

Someone please give Saffy a chance, she needs her own permanent loving home and she so deserves it. She won't let you down and we know you won't regret it".

It's official ... Saffy's fosterers are fun! Here is their Christmas update on Saffy ...

"Saffy's Christmas

Christmas Eve - we hung an ornament on the tree to let Santa know that Saffy has been a good girl. We were sure she would have been on his "Nice" list but Saffy didn't want to take any chances.



Little did Saffy know Santa had already dropped off her presents and asked us to wrap them for her. As there were so many we decided that a sack would be the best thing, wrapping would have taken hours!!!!



Christmas Day - we woke Saffy early and at first she wasn't very impressed, until she spotted her Santa sack and then she sprung to life.



From then on it was mayhem followed by carnage but boy did she have fun. Bless her, she didn't know what to play with first!









Saffy kept going until she was exhausted and then just crashed out until tea time when she enjoyed her Christmas dinner of chicken and all the trimmings (diet cancelled for one day).

Boxing day - Saffy had been invited to spend Boxing Day with family so off we went. Toys, bed, food and bowls packed we made our way over to Richmond. Once there it didn't take Saffy long to find the garden which is huge and as you will see from the pics more like a jungle!!!! That was it, Saffy was out in the garden playing hide and seek with Julie's nephew Tyler. Of course Saffy spotted Tyler hiding in the bushes straight away but pretended not to see him and carried on "looking" for him for a while.

It took us ages to convince Saffy that she should come inside and "mingle" with the rest of the family!!!





When we had our dinner Saffy quietly took herself off to her bed and stayed there until we had finished. Everyone was really impressed.

Saffy was a dream, brilliant with the kids (both over the age of 10), respectful of their home and her manners were impeccable. Bless her, we were so proud of her. Paige and Tyler wanted her to stay.

By the time we arrived home that evening Saffy was shattered and yet again just crashed on her bed.

In between Christmas and New Year she is having a little rest although we have had several visitors.......and Grannie is coming tomorrow......better get some sleep now Saffy you have another busy day tomorrow xxxxx

Thank you Saffy for a brilliant Christmas, we will never forget it and we hope it is one that you will remember forever xxxx"

Saffy hope she find a forever home of her own in 2012!

A Saffy update from her fosterer ...

“It's Saffy proof!!!!

Saffy is still doing well. Life has settled down for her now after a very busy Christmas and New Year and she has managed to get through the majority of the toys she had from Santa. On one of our walks last Thursday we found a small leather football abandoned at the side of the road. Saffy decided she liked the look of it so we carried it home and gave it a good wash. Normally she destroys her footballs in a matter of minutes, at the very least puncturing them, but 6 days later and it's still intact!!!! She has pounced on it, rolled on it, put all her force behind puncturing it, tried ripping bits off the leather but it is still in the perfect condition that we found it!! You can't begin to imagine how annoyed she gets with it. She spends hours trying to break this ball!!!! Turns out it's a handball not a football and unbelievable as it sounds it's Saffy proof!!!! She is so in love with this ball (a bit of a love:hate thing going on here) that at night we put it in her toy box and when we tell her to go to bed she goes and gets the ball out of the box and takes it to bed with her. It's kept her amused for hours.



This little angel has been feeling the cold a little recently, although the house is warm she gets cold when she goes out for her walks and this seems to make her a little uncomfortable so we bought her a coat. By the look on her face we don't think she's too keen on it”.
