Tangled Yorkie

The weekend's rescue was a tiny Yorkie.  Tangled, matted, filthy.   Couldn't see his face for hair, his coat a mess of knots.   Very thin, his backbone sticking out - and when I checked him over - there was a leg missing.   It made me shiver to start with - but then I realised it was an old injury, the leg had been surgically removed and the scar was healed.  Poor little chap though - he's in a real state.   After he'd had a meal (he wolfed it down) and a drink,  we cut his fringe - so at least he can see now.  Is someone looking for a Yorkie who's been out on the lam for a long time?    He hasn't got in this state in a couple of days.   Or has he been dumped?  He's a sweetie so don't know how anyone could do that.

The dog attack fella is settling down with us but very feisty with other dogs. He's a bit of a Jekyll and Hyde character - friendly with us - and over the top snarls and bared teeth if another dog comes near.   Wonder if that's what happened and someone got in the way?  

Loads of smashing dogs for adoption on our website - and cats too.

    Thanks everyone for your good words - the happy endings keep us going.  Heartbreak is always round the corner though for these poor dogs.   We have some sweet little dogs in - how did they get to be strays?   That's what beats me.
    Funding?   We don't have any.  It's all wing and a prayer stuff and people bring food in and volunteers help us.   We need food desperately at the moment - so many big hungry dogs!
