Today we welcomed in our 700th Hound and he brought his brother to be the 701st!

In total so far this year that’s 25 hounds to join BRNGB, so please join us in welcoming Bolo and Bruce. Named after their owner’s favourite film “Enter the Dragon”.

Bolo and Bruce are under assessment and are not ready to be adopted. Any enquiries regarding them will go unanswered.

Bruce and Bolo are very much bonded siblings, and are 6 years old.  They have been welcomed into the home by their foster siblings, some being BRNGB Hounds. 

Both suffer terribly from skin and allergies. They have arrived with a lot of medication for their skin, which we know from past hounds can be a long term battle. They will be taken for a vet check soon and a review of all their medications and see if anything needs tweaking.

They will need frequent and regular bathing to get their skin under control.

Both are entire and will be neutered when they are deemed fit.

Bruce, the Tri boy, has been labelled the “trouble maker” and is mischievous, not missing a trick. He will happily eat any sock, or item of underwear, having to have surgery in the past.

He has had a tumour removed from his leg previously and we’re pleased to hear that he was given the all clear.

Bolo, the red and white boy, apparently likes to greet you in the morning rolling around and having a chat!

They have settled in really well and are happily nosey around the garden, testing out the furniture inside and out and being very good boys. 

They are both very much bonded, and get distressed when separated. They will of course stay together.

They do need a few bits and pieces so a wish list is below. We have added some veggie treats as we’re not sure about their allergies at the moment. If you would rather donate to their vet care the link to do so is also below, as well as a link to this month’s fundraiser (all funds raised go towards hounds like Bolo and Bruce).

We will update their journey as it progresses.

Thank you as always to their transporters, and of course for your support 

Their wish  list, donation link, and hamper link as well as photos and a video of these stunning lads can be found here
