Magic came into rescue in 2009. Magic is a special dog.
He had a poor start to life and quickly developed a tail chasing habit. This caused quite a serious injury to his tail and he had to have part of it amputated. Unfortunately, the owners didn't take enough care of him and didn't take him back for a check up at the vets. A serious infection took hold and soon after going into rescue, he had to have a further section of tail removed.

He spent a few weeks with a well known behaviourist on Exmoor. She managed to train him out of his tail chasing habit.
He went out to a home but sadly Magic came back into rescue. He apparently bit the vet and his 'mum' became concerned that he might bite her children (even though he'd been wonderful with them all the time he was with them). Magic did have a terrible history of going to the vet and having horrible things happen to him so we know it's a very specific situation that gets him stressed.
How can anyone resist this face
Thirsty work all this walking
