Abandoned puppies looking for new homes
As usual it's been busy, busy, busy. Where do all the dogs come from? We've had four puppies brought in this week - as well as all the other waifs and strays. It seems especially heartless to throw a pup out when the weather is so cold doesn't it. One is a staffi, pure bred by the look of her, another a brindle x bred - very sweet, and a beautiful cream Andrex puppy, so cuddly and the last is ........ a very tiny ??? don't know exactly what breed as yet - she's the real baby of the bunch. Lots more dogs brought in - a smart terrier I've called Flashman - he's just desperate for a new home....
See what I mean? How does he stay so clean - that's a puzzle - it's muddy in the fields, but this little chap must skip through the puddles. We've had another emaciated German Shepherd brought in - why does this happen to this breed more than any other? Yesterday we had a smart little Jack Russell brought in by the dog wardens - and before that another staffi....... so many hungry mouths to feed - I'm so grateful to the people who bring food in - we couldn't do any of this without their help.
The three legged Yorkie went home to his owners in the end. He'd got in such a state while he was lost and they'd been looking all over for him. This is a pic of him when he first came in - they were very pleased to get him back again.
And the dog that was on Death Row because he'd bitten someone was eventually given a reprieve and went back to his family. Every dog has one bite and in the end the authorities agreed. It was very suspenseful here because he'd settled down and we'd become fond of him and his owners kept ringing up and sounding distraught because they wanted him back. We were told they had promised to muzzle him when they walked him in the future - just in case.
Hope it's fine tomorrow - we've had dogs that have been in for ages - and they're all lovely characters - so hoping that people will come to see them. Sigmund has been here for a long time and he's a smashing chap, very stripey, quite big and a lovely goofy nature. His size puts people off I think. So many people want a small dog - Sigmund has a bit of greyhound in him so the legs are long - I love him to bits and want him to get a super home. Hope it will be soon.
