weather

We hope you all had a good xmas. Mom could not post a lot because here we have torrential rain and  flooding. We don't like rain very much and tend to hang around the sofa and armchair all day long.  Pebbles hates it.  The elctricity has been coming and going and most of xmas day there was no power at all. Shops in town have water knee deep aand there is a foot of mud outside of the local post office. Walls have collapsed and blocked roads and still the rain is falling. The big brown lab and his female friend were waiting for dad the day after xmas. They did not get fed on xmas day because dad closed the bakery. It was his first day off since he started. He took extra food for them. The black dog seems to have moved on. People were revolted and frightened by his terrible appearance. They shooed him away if he came near. He was treated like a lepper. If you want to help one us like this then you have to grab the dog there and then because we are always on the move. Dad is asking around after him, but nobody up to now knows where he came from or went to. We all shuddered to think how lucky we are to have found this refuge. We hope we can all stay here in peace. We want the two oldies to come and live with us too. Please help facilitate this. Mom is trying to borrow a video camera so she can post a video of us all and our home. Of course, I will be the star performer!

Janice,

I sent Best Friends Animal Sanctuary in Utah, USA an e-mail regarding your situation. They responded with the e-mail below. Maybe they can help......

-Corinne

Thank you for contacting Best Friends Animal Society.

As you can imagine, we receive many cross-posted messages each day at Best Friends. So often, enough time has passed that the situation has been resolved or a critical deadline has been missed. That's why we recommend that if you are in a position to do so, that you ask the shelter, rescuer or caregiver involved with the animals of concern to contact Best Friends directly so that we can get the specifics regarding the situation and offer what help we have available.

Our main email address is animalhelp@bestfriends.org. Email is the best way to reach us, but those without a computer can call (435) 644-3965 ext 4800.

I thank you for your concern about the situation.

Sincerely,

Oh my god.....someone donated $1,000.00, see people do care. I just wanted to let you know that I also e-mailed the WSPA & IFAW about your plight. Not sure if one of these organizations sent the money or another animal lover...either way....that is so great! I just wish I could do more....
