ReikiAnge Posted November 2, 2007 Report Share Posted November 2, 2007 Lady is not an Oldies Club dog but we have been asked to list her on the oldies site. Lady is a beautiful twelve year old female, black Labrador Retriever cross who is being rehomed from Croft Rescue Kennels, Bridgend, South Wales. She is in urgent need of a loving new home. The kennels describe Lady as very sweet, affectionate and quite energetic for her age. Lady was picked up as a stray and was not claimed by her owners. She has been spayed and had a mammary strip and has put on weight since she has been in kennels so would need a little help shifting this in her new home According to the kennels, Lady mixes very well with dogs and people. It is not known how she is with children as she has not been with any since being at the kennels. She loves to play with her tennis ball A volunteer is happy to help with transport from Bridgend if a loving and suitable new home can be found for Lady. Please contact Wendy on 07779 520 097 asap if you are interested in offering Lady a home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoT Posted November 2, 2007 Report Share Posted November 2, 2007 She's beautiful, bless her. Do we have any idea just how urgent this is Ange? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Going to the dogs Posted November 2, 2007 Report Share Posted November 2, 2007 It's very urgent! Lady is in a very over-crowded pound. Dogs are going in at the rate of knots at the moment. Lady has been there several months and she is taking up much-needed room. There has been no interest in her because of her age. But she's great with other dogs and has no faults that anyone has found. The pound won't or can't pass on dogs to rescues (exept me) because their van is off the road - and has been since the floods. I could persuade them not to do the inevitable if I was certain to have a place. I can't bring her here because I already have 15 dogs in the house including another pts from that pound who arrived a month ago. This is becoming a terrible situation for pounds and rescues. According to the local statistics, November is the worst month for picking up strays and taking hand-ins. So things can only got worse. Lady is such a sweetie. Just wants to play with a tennis ball. Please consider giving her a home. I'll arrange transport anywhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jax39 Posted November 2, 2007 Report Share Posted November 2, 2007 Can she go into foster? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Going to the dogs Posted November 2, 2007 Report Share Posted November 2, 2007 She could but the pound wouldn't be able to offer back-up and neither would I. I could help with any medical expenses but having 15 of my own, I'm already making a vet rich. Do you have a foster home in mind? I've just phoned the pound and have told them that efforts are being made to get her into a home and so she is safe for the weekend at least. It would be nice to get her out before the fireworks start though, though the pound is a way away from habitation Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blackmagic Posted November 2, 2007 Report Share Posted November 2, 2007 You say the kennels won't pass her to a rescue but can you take her out and pass to a rescue? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
