Chleo & Jay, 2 year old Fell Terriers

These two have been with us since 29th October, 2008 and are soul mates. We have had their ads posted individually for some time, but we feel very strongly that they should stay together. We are pulling out all the stops to achieve that aim. Here is their new joint ad and our plea for their forever home together ...

His and Her Story: Grew up together same age, but different litters. In with an adult family who thought buying 2 puppies would keep each other company whilst they worked 10-12 hours. Move of house prompted them coming into rescue at age of one. Fostered for a while, but kennelled since January.

Salient points: Both attractive Fell terriers ?Bedlington crosses. Chleo focuses on activity, task and excels in training. Jay focuses on people. Neither good at recall due to chase instinct, so retained on extenders. Jay needs supervised intros with dogs, soon relaxes, but needs intensive socialisation to develop his confidence further.

Advert: Jay is a beautiful wire-haired 'grey' Patterdale (Black Fell). Chleo a smaller frizzed coated grey and beige Fell Terrier. They have always lived together, born within days of each other, but from different litters. Both can be trusted around 'youngish' children, but no cats. Jay loves people and doesn't engage in toys, more people play! Yes he moults which may be a consideration for some. Jay has a gentle rather submissive temperament ... he gives his heart totally and didn't eat for days when a member of his family left home. Chleo is more activity based and would do well at Agility, more aloof with people, but still very loving.

There is great harmony between Jay and Chleo. How wonderful for someone looking for 2 dogs. They both need to be retained on leads as their chase instincts are keen and they have 'selective hearing' outside! Jay was run over, but had no injury other than grazing. This happened because of over-trusting them off lead. Jay is the one who wants to sit beside you, loves to see you arrive home, so excited and soaks in companionship. Chleo is ready to engage you in 'trick and treats' and will delight you with her balls games as she delights herself. Both are neutered, vacc'd and chipped. Currently kennelled in Gatwick W Sussex.
