Lancashire Heeler Rescue Success Stories
Toby and Mitzie
Hello there.
Here is Toby and Mitzie - we both came from Enid lord. Toby was bought in 2002 and is now 7 he is a happy playful dog and very loving. Toby could not be shown because he has crooked teeth...
Mitzie was rescued in 2008, thanks to Enid, when her owner died and she has settled in and is now 12 years old and is very loving and plays with Toby and tries to boss him about....
We just want to put on record our thanks to Enid lord for 2 smashing Heelers and hope she gets better.
Please fell free to use the email.
Many thanks.
Mark and Pam Procter..
Max
I am a very privileged owner of one of Enid Lords rescue dogs. 
He is a handsome, strong minded little fellow with an endless source of amusing tricks which never fail to amuse and entertain us.
As a college nurse, part of my remit is to teach health promotion to students with learning difficulties. Max joins in these sessions with relish, charging through the college grounds with the lads and lassies smiling happily and wagging his tail non- stop. He can either act 9 weeks old or 90 years old depending what mood he's in.
If he doesn’t want to get out of bed which is very rare! He pretends to be asleep!
The post- man thought he was a German shepherd with the racket he makes when the mail arrives. He is the best sulker I have ever seen if nobody wants to go for a walk!
I have told him he will have to go to anger management classes if he keeps drawing hiself up to his full height and shouting at red setters and boxers when we are out. He loves to go clay pigeon shooting with us, and has been known to startle the odd pheasant out of the hedgerows on his travels.
He enjoys coming to crown green bowling with me because he gets spoilt rotten by the other bowlers. Max is four years old now and was originally a christmas present from my son. The pictures show him as a puppy and today.
I cant remember what life was like without the little feller because he took over ours.
Enid does a sterling job of rescuing and rehoming these dogs, and I would recommend Lancashire Heelers to anyone who can manage a little dog with the heart of a lion and thinks its human!
Just be warned - they steal your heart!

George
George was rescued last summer. He and his new owner are very happy, George has a heeler friend to play with every day and has become so well known in the village that several people have asked about his background and are seriously thinking of rescuing a dog themselves.
Mrs Lord was so helpful and has made an old lady and her new dog very happy.
Thank you Gabrielle Thomson ( - also the happy owner of Foxtyme Lady Hamilton who is known as Mini at home)

I'd like to thank Mrs Lord for all the work that she does for Heeler Rescue and how she helped us.
We have had Heelers since 1990 and lost Arthur in February 2006, after a number of complicated illnesses. I found Mrs Lord number completely by accident via a US web page. Our little Heeler bitch was missing her mate and Mrs Lord made it possible for us to give Bracken a home.
Bracken had been living in Newcastle and needed to be rehomed for a number of reasons, not least that he wasn't very fond of little children.
We picked Bracken up in Preston on 9 April 2006. He was very quiet in his travelling box on the back seat as we brought him home to Essex.
He fitted in immediately, a bit bossy with the little bitch but they have sorted it all out. We contacted his previous owner and have maintained regular contact and become good telephone friends, finding that we had quite a lot in common, and hope to meet in the coming months.
I've attached some pictures of Bracken during his first few days with us to show how quickly he settled in and one of his yesterday in the snow.
He is very amusing and has some eandearing ways and expressions. He likes watching television when not out in the garden chasing birds and playing with his mate. He and my son are now also great mates.
Thank you Mrs Lord for all your hard work.
