  1. I spoke to the owner of the dog and the rescue was named by them ,and confirmed to another caller from a different rescue yesterday As our rescue was mentioned on another site regarding this Akita ?? yesterday ,I felt we had a right of reply , so I posted my thoughts and the name of the rescue involved , and as usual on the said site it turned into a slanging match and I got banned and the topic removed , so be careful of naming and shaming after all the bulletts are loaded and you are left to fire the gun , as usual with these cliques who dont have the courage of their convictions you stand alone .
  2. UPDATE 02/11/09 Well here is Ruby Tuesday 3 weeks into being in our care Ruby is in the middle of Spud and Dan they have allways been right by her side since she came in . RT is now 33 kilo and doing fine there have been one or two little worring times but thats all in the past now , RT was at the vets tonight and he is quite pleased with her progress Pete the vet thinks all is fine and she is heading in the right direction , well upart from the very unlady like odd oudours she seems quite proud of ,but hey we can live with that [ just ] Ruby now has her moments of play time with the lads ,her and Dan are partners in crime never far apart . Ruby impresses everyone she meets with her loving nature , she loves a good fuss and loves her snuggle time with mags or me in the evening .there is still a way to go for this girl but Im sure she will be a real darling and a real looker when she finaly fills out . Again I would like to thank everyone on behalf of Ruby Tuesday for their Emails ,phonecalls and well wishes and genuine support for this young dog in need
  3. Quick update Well Ruby Tuesday has been with us just short of a week now,she has gained a little weight and is a dream to have in foster with us . RT has been back at the vets on monday for some more tests as she showed a little bit of blood in her urine on sunday night . The tests all came back ok and one posible cause the vet thinks is she may be in season [nature can be quite cruel sometimes ] but as she is in such bad condition her body is acting qite strange to this ?. He has put her on a short case of antibiotics just in case .on behalf of ruby I must thank everyone for their comments , emails and phone calls asking after her .Today [tue] RT had enough energy to try to play with Dan a young lad we also have in with us but she got tiered after a few minutes ,but it was nice to see her enjoying life . jon
  4. Hi Laura thanks for the offer which is ever easier for you would be great with us .pm me for any details you need . Hi HLGS Thanks for the tip/recipe , one problem we have with RT is she seems to pass as much waste as food she is taking in quite quickly . By this I mean her stomach is so small [non existant ] she can hardly hold on to any goodness for long , she has put on a little weight so going in the right direction . This evening she now seems to have a odd bits of what seems to be very small bits of blood / clots in her urine ? , so off to the vets with a sample and RT first thing in the morning ,hopefuly its just an infection but as you know when they are this far down their immune systems are so low they get everything going . but all in all she is well with in herself and a temperament to die for . jon
  5. Hi Guys Yep I will try to keep her story and progress updated. Kate ans Missy thank you as soon as she is able to eat treats I will make sure she knows who thay are from . At the moment her food is monitored Ruby Tuesday is fed every three hours and seems quite happy within herself she is happy to just lay about or will try to plod along with spud and the couple of fosters we have in with us, as you can imagine her energy levels are quite low . jon

  8. to all involved . Murphy is where he belongs HOME , I just wish everyone involved in working so hard and saving this dog could have been there the moment I took murf home to Spencer ,I have seen some happy faces in my time but boy did Spencers face light up I saw Spencer and Murphy a couple of days later and yep Spencer was still grinning like a chesire cat .
  9. Hi Zicos mum I take on board what you say and yes for this to work things would need to change, but for me that would be for the better , owners changing their details on line would need to stop, for the reasons you have stated ,MC companys do keep records , it may sound strange but you already can trace a chip back to the implanter who implanted and they should realy keep records of the chips they implant , realy vets are not the people to contact over lost or stolen dogs your first port of call should be the chip company who hold the details . As for rescues who chip dogs to themselves [ourselves included ] that is something the rescues would have to look at themselves if this law was past . As an implanter myself through the rescue and our free M/C schemes we run localy I probably implant about 200 dogs/cats + every year and then dealing with lost dogs etc I know the system and how it works and how it could/should work as already stated the system is already there in place and imo just not used to its full potential. As for the fines and who collects them and where the money goes is a different thing as with any government it will be not where it is needed or will do the most good
  10. Ok I admit it would create a bit of work for some D W's etc but we have to start somewhere. At the moment you have pups/dogs being sold /given away in free add papers , pet shops ,dodgy internet sites all with no control etc, owners dumping dogs left right and center .If it was made ileagal to sell /part with or swap a domestic animal that was not micro chiped , surly this would stop some from jumping in and taking on an animal on a whim and others from sherking their responsibility towards animals when they get fed up of them . Im not saying it would stop the problem but it may go a little way to helping to eleviate it. jon
  11. Hi as one who has been campianing for years for pets to be M/C , for me the answer is simple you make it an on the spot fine if the dog is not M/C at least a £100 fine. Also if you find a M/C'd dog that the details are not upto date then the fine is owed by the last registered owner ,lets be honest if you new you could be fined a £100 you would make sure the paper work was sorted out when you passed a dog on or moved house etc . As for new pups All new pups must be microchiped to the breeder before they can be sold, that way dogs are tracable all thier lives , this not only protects the breeders as it would make it virtualy impossible for people to break thier contracts and just breed with the dogs where restrictions apply and register them with the KC. Or pass the dog on into rescue with out any paper work under a different name again braking the law, good breeders would not have anything to fear from this scheme as its very rare for thier dogs to tun up in rescue and if it did they could be informed straight away You wouldn't sell a car with out filling the paper work because of the come back so why should you be alowed to just pass on animals or dump them without taking the responsibility that goes with that .
