We would like to another big thank you to Doris Banham for taking these guys on!!

Pongo a German Shepherd brought into us via the Leigh & Wigan Dog Wardens on the 25/07/2016 unfortunately his ID chip had no details on and no has come forward during his 7 days with us.

Jack a Jack Russell brought into us again via the Leigh & Wigan Dog Wardens on the 28/07/2016 Jack was ID chipped but we’ve had no luck getting in touch with the registered owner, and no one has stepped forward to claim him.

Robbie initially came into our care whilst his owner went into hospital until it was determined that his owner would no longer be able to care for him full time so they asked for him to be rehomed.

Doris Banham have once again kindly offered to take all three dogs on and to look for their forever homes!

Once again we would like to say a massive thank you to Sharon, Trudie, Lorna & Co at Doris Banham for their continued help it’s greatly appreciated!

GOOD LUCK PONGO, JACK AND ROBBIE!!

On the 24/07/2016 this little Shih Tzu was brought into via the out of hours Animal Wardens for Bolton Council. When he arrived he was heavily matted with an infected cut on his head.

He wasn’t ID chipped and no one has come forward to claim him. During his 7 days we’ve clipped him and treated him for the infected cut. He has made fantastic progress during that time.

And on the 01/08/2016 ‘Benedict’ the name we gave him went up for adoption and has found a new home.

We will look forward to staying in touch with his new owners and monitoring his progress.

We would like to wish Benedict and his new family all the best for the future!

Remember me???

We would like to say a massive thank you to Doris Banham for taking on Bruno on he came to us on 10/07/2016 through Leigh & Wigan Dog Wardens he was ID chipped but unfortunately he was registered to his previous owner who had rehomed him.

Sharon leaving with Bruno

We shall look forward to keeping in touch with Trudie, Sharon and Co at Doris Banham to keep an eye on his progress.

We would like to take this opportunity to say a massive thank you Doris Banham for their help over the past few months and will look forward to working with them in the future.

GOOD LUCK BRUNO!!!

Just a reminder that we are offering FREE MICROCHIPPING today between 12 and 5pm

We would like to say another huge thank you to Doris Banham Rescue for taking on these two guys!

Sharon from Doris Banham with Lou

Lou was brought into us originally through St Helens dog wardens on 20/06/2016 Lou was ID chipped but unfortunately we weren’t able to get in touch with registered people on her micro chip. After her 7 days Lou went up for adoption on 27/06/2016 unfortunately during that time no one has offered Lou a home, so we’ve contacted Trudie of Doris Banham Rescue and she has kindly offered Lou a place with them.

Sharon from Doris Banham with Sid

Sid was brought to us originally through Leigh & Wigan dog wardens on 01/07/2016 Sid unfortunately wasn’t ID chipped and no one come forward to claim him. After the seven days Sid went up for adoption on 08/07/2016 and was adopted on 14/07/2016 but unfortunately had to be returned due a behavioural problem. So Doris Banham have offered him a place along with Lou.

Once again a massive thank you to Doris Banham for taking these guys on! We shall look forward to keeping in touch Sharon, Trudie and Co to see their progress.

Here’s an update on Tallulah a Dogue de Bordeaux adopted from ourselves.

She was brought into us due to her owner not being well enough to care for her anymore.

The very next day Jackie and Liv decided to give her a home and have been very kind as to stay in touch with us on a regular basis!

Its great to see Tallulah thriving in such a loving caring home!

We couldn’t of wished for a better home for Tallulah and will look forward to staying in touch will Jackie and Liv!

Everyone here at Leigh Cats and Dogs Home would like to wish Jackie, Liv and Tallulah all the best for the future!

We have had a couple of people get in touch concerned that the signs to the Home from the main road have been disappearing. Just to clear things up…..

Wigan Council have decided that the Home no longer fits the criteria required to have a Brown ‘Tourist’ sign directing people to us so they have covered them up. From what we can gather this is simply because we don’t have a Cafe! (although we do have a nice coffee machine!)

It is just these that have been removed and all other signage is still there and we are still here and open as usual and look forward to seeing you in the future!

Remember me???

Here’s an update on Smooch the mastiff who was brought into us via the St Helens dog wardens on 24th June. Unfortunately Smooch was not ID chipped and nobody came forward to claim him.

After his 7 day period he was assessed by the vet and then neutered. Smooch was then rehomed on 7th July to a family that live on a farm!

His new owners have kindly kept in touch with us and given us regular updates on his progress and also sent us a few pictures.

It’s great to see Smooch settling into his new life so quickly!

We look forward to staying in touch with his new family and seeing his progress!

We would like to say a massive thank you to Greyhound Gap for taking on this girl.

Delilah came to us originally as a stray through the Bolton Dog Wardens on 11/4/16 she was adopted from ourselves but unfortunately yesterday she had to be returned to us due a behavioural problem.

So we’ve got in touch with Lisa of Greyhound Gap who has kindly offered to take Delilah on.

Michael from Greyhound Gap collecting Delilah from ourselves.

We will look forward to staying in touch with Lisa and co to see Delilahs progress.

Once again a massive thank you to Greyhound Gap!

on Saturday 23rd July 12.00-5.00pm.
