Teckels is a charitable animal welfare centre, which was established in 2003 after the Gloucester based rescue kennels and cattery merged with another long established animal rescue centre based in Swindon. The people from Swindon Animal Sanctuary campaigned hard and collected for many years for animal rescue, but the amounts of monies raised were never enough for them to establish a centre of their own and so it was decided that they would merge with Teckels and use the funds to support an active animal rescue centre, who were in desperate need of funding, as close to Swindon as they could. These funds have helped enable Teckels to rescue and re-home thousands of animals during the past five years from both the Gloucestershire and the Swindon area.

Two 8yr old rough coated lurchers at Teckels Gloucester Pedro and Blue are a couple of cheeky chaps that have been waiting for a home for ages and are getting a bit sick of kennels. I've been seeing them and walking them regularly since xmas and these boys are truly gorgeous. You might have seen them at the Gap show on Sunday on their big day out... traveled beautifully in the car and pretty well behaved all things considered. Pedro can normally be a little arsey with other dogs (purely due to his noisy neighbours at the rescue) but he was a star and a little in awe of so many pointy dogs. Neither of them has much in the way of recall but i reckon they could both do it as they will sit to command (for sosidge!). I love them both to bits and am seriously thinking of looking after these dirty gents myself but i promised Teckels i'd put them up anyway. Teckels would dearly love to home these two together but may consider other options. Here's what Teckels have to say about them. Pedro Pedro is a real cuddely boy that loves nothing more than fuss and attention. He is a great dog to take for a walk, as he is great on the lead and very calm. He is a typical lurcher that loves to race around for ten minutes, and then enjoys having a rest on a nice cozy sofa. As long as he is with people Pedro is happy. He is a bit of a sensitive boy and doesn't like loud noises, such as fireworks. Pedro is looking for someone that is as lovely and affectionate as himself. Unfortunately, Pedro doesn't like cats and is not always great with other dogs. Blue This stunning boy came to us after his owner could no longer care for him. He is a very affectionate dog that can get a little overexcited at times. Blue just adores people and children and would love to be part of a family where he can get all the fuss that he wants. Blue is lovely to take for a walk as he is nice and calm, he has had some basic obedience training and is just a real pleasure to be around. Racing around the paddock blue still seems like a puppy and being somewhere with enough space for him to burn off some energy would be ideal. Unfortunately, Blue can’t go with cats and is not always great with other dogs. www.teckels.orgOpening Hours Mondays and Wednesdays Closed Tuesdays, Thursdays, Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays Open Between 1 and 4 Address Teckels Animal Sanctuary Bristol Rd, Whitminster, Gloucester, Gloucestershire GL2 7LU Telephone 01452 740300
