Vickie is an 11 year young fox terrier who lived happily with her owner, spoilt and loved. Unfortunately she ended up in a French shelter after the person passed away. Vickie has found the constant loud barking and the absence of comfort – despite the volunteers’ kindness – hard to deal with. She has just arrived in temporary foster in Norfolk and we would love to find a foster home or of course an adoptive family for her.
She is full of life, playful and affectionate, and although she needs a comfy basket or sofa corner, she is not ready for complete retirement, so her new owners have be prepared for plenty of play sessions and walks! Vickie could live with a calm, level headed dog.
This is the delightful Bracke, currently in London foster. Bracken is from Spain, another stray left in the perrera. She is about 4 years old, she has had a tough life too.
At first she would flatten every time you approached, any raised voice, or sudden noise would either send her running or flatten to the ground in a submissive position. She starts her morning by jumping on you and giving licks and little nibbles to your fingers. She likes a morning biscuit – she jumps up at you like she has springs in her paws.
She is learning to walk on lead, she is still frightened by the sounds of traffic, loud people, and unusual noises. But once in the park or quieter area – she will relax and be at ease. She wants love from people, but is still afraid – but she is getting better and realising people do not want to hurt her. All she wants is love and cuddles. She loves meeting dogs, and is comfortable in their company. She is not for the great outdoors, prefers to stay on the nice paved path, she was not bothered by squirrels running across her path. Just wants all the creature comforts of a nice urban life. She will follow you pretty much everywhere. She likes to be on your lap and getting cuddles. In fact, if she could do that all the time she would be happy. She has a good appetite, but she will not bother you during your meal – but expects a treat or two. She likes to play bitey face with the other dogs, but has shown no interest in toys or a ball. She arrived with an eye infection and skin problems, the eye infection has cleared up, but she has medicated shampoo and her skin is improving. Bracken will need a home that is calm and prepared to take things slow. You also would not be a family that does marathons or enjoys being knee deep in mud! But she does love to roll in fox’s mess, so the terrier is in there ….
She is about 4 years old. Vaccinated & neutered. No cats or small furries. Children: 10+ Interested in Bracken? Please download & complete TerrierSOSQuestionnaireMay2015

This is Maya – a wonderful fox terrier that has had a very tough life. She was straying on the streets of Spain when a very kind soul picked her up and asked for help. We were contacted and knew her life had to change!
She had been used as a breeding machine – she had been left in a terrible condition – severe ear infection, mastitis, the start of pyometra, mammary tumours, horrific teeth, covered in fleas and the list went on. She has had several operations, and lots of TLC and she is now ready to travel to the UK.
Maya is approx 11 years old, she is deaf (as a consequence of the untreated ear infection). She is dog and people friendly and just needs a home that will love her to bits. She also had several lumps removed from the base of her tail – some lumps have reappeared on her back legs – these are being removed – but she may have them return.
She is a super adorable girl and absolutely gorgeous.
We would like to introduce the newest member of the Terrier SOS family – Teddy Ben – named in honour of Ted Nicholson. What we know about Teddy – he was a stray picked up in Spain – he is a big fox terrier (approx 12 kilos) – he is young 1-2 years old, and quite the character – and true to form an escape artist… he will be coming to the UK shortly.
