ClazUK Posted June 3, 2008 Report Share Posted June 3, 2008 If he's still around on 6th July, I'll foster him (assuming he gets on with Guinness and Sky). I'd do it sooner but we have a long weekend in Cornwall and 2 family events before then. He caught my eye the first time round, I can't bear the thought of him in kennels at his age.

redditchlady Posted June 4, 2008 Report Share Posted June 4, 2008 Poor Brian. I can't help not even till 6th when Claz could have him as Mandy can't be spayed. It's not a risk we could take. Kazz xx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lazyhound Posted June 4, 2008 Report Share Posted June 4, 2008 OMG, wish I hadn't seen this. My heart goes out to these poor greys . They make the most wonderful pets. My new foster is arriving at the weekend, otherwise I would gladly take him in. This sort of thing is heart breaking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peachy Posted June 4, 2008 Report Share Posted June 4, 2008 I know what you all mean. I'd have here myself except Alfie would be far too bossy for him. I kept thinking of him during the night and wondering how he must feel about losing his lovely new home, being back in kennels and now being moved to the first kennels. I know Carol is doing her best by him but he needs a cosy bed in someone's living room. Each day is another day he misses out on Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rudi Posted June 4, 2008 Report Share Posted June 4, 2008 Is he still entire? Anyone know if he's lived with other entire males? Jo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happylittlegreensquirrel Posted June 4, 2008 Report Share Posted June 4, 2008 not promising anything but there is a chance that Grandma Squirrel may be able to help untill Claz is able to take him, this does depend on a few other things and it maybe 48 hours before I can say yes or no Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peachy Posted June 4, 2008 Report Share Posted June 4, 2008 Thanks everyone. I'm waiting to speak to Carol again so will update the thread again shortly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brenda Posted June 4, 2008 Report Share Posted June 4, 2008 As he is cat friendly I could definitely take him until Claz comes back from her hols. Assuming he is okay with 2 neutered males? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peachy Posted June 4, 2008 Report Share Posted June 4, 2008 From what Carol said to me yesterday, he's fine with other dogs, cats and small furries. I know he's been living with other dogs in his foster home and was fine with them. The answerphone is on at the kennels but I've left a message so will hopefully know more later Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ClazUK Posted June 4, 2008 Report Share Posted June 4, 2008 Kelly, I'm off back to work in a sec... email me if there's any news, yeah? I'm there until 7.30 Thanks to Sam/Grandma Squigg & Brenda for the stop-gap offers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happylittlegreensquirrel Posted June 4, 2008 Report Share Posted June 4, 2008 have spoken with Grandma Squiggs who is more than happy to take him ( I had not asked when I posted earlier :blush02 ) if he is already sorted then fantastic but the offer is there as required Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peachy Posted June 4, 2008 Report Share Posted June 4, 2008 Thank you for all your responses Carol has just called me back. I can give you a bit more information about Brian. He's vaccinated but not neutered. He has lived with unneutered males and is so laid back that no problems have come up. Portsmouth City Kennels are effectively the council pound and they get funding from the Council to keep the dogs for seven days. No more. They can't offer rescue back up as such, however will take him Brian back if there are problems (like they have now). They can't pay for large vets bills at all. Despite his lack of luck so far Brian is a happy boy and, although stiff on his legs, Carol said he can still find another gear when he's feeling cheeky. He's not as thin as he was and is much better for being in a home. When he was in kennels previously he had an open wound on his tail which has now healed and he also suffered with sores around his back legs Carol is happy to take calls directly from anyone interested in helping. The phone number is 02392 870337. There is an answerphone and anyone calling may need to leave a message. Please mention you saw Brian on Oldies Club Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
