blackmagic Posted June 9, 2009 Report Share Posted June 9, 2009 I was asked to fax a letter to her solicitor in which I agree to take in Bruce. I have done so today. There is currently an appeal circulating for a home in the ROI for Bruce. Has there been any response to your offer? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Melp Posted June 9, 2009 Report Share Posted June 9, 2009 How are they able to rehome him? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kats n greys Posted June 9, 2009 Report Share Posted June 9, 2009 I understand that they are looking to re-home him in Eire , hence Sarah being involved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReikiAnge Posted June 9, 2009 Report Share Posted June 9, 2009 How are they able to rehome him? Sarah posted a quote from and link to Roger's site, above: http://www.therefuge.org.uk/forums/index.p...st&p=842261 Everything crossed Bruce will be ok.

Rumpole Posted June 9, 2009 Report Share Posted June 9, 2009 i think melp means because its illegal to rehome under the dda as well as to own. so though there is no ban on export someone would have to break the law as he would be being rehomed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blackmagic Posted June 9, 2009 Report Share Posted June 9, 2009 If anybody had contact with Sarah could they give her prod? Somebody on DP is trying to help Bruce get a rescue place before it is too late - 29 June. The owner has a bebo page where she has said she has been talking with someone in Dublin but, as he is a restricted breed in Dublin, she doesn't want him to go there and is desperate. The position seems to be as confused as ever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EGAR Posted June 9, 2009 Report Share Posted June 9, 2009 As I was asked to do I faxed a letter with my consent and offer to take Bruce over a week ago to her solicitor, the fax number I got was 028/91818499. The fax went trhough ok. NO contact has been made by them whatsoever and frankly, I am getting a wee bit miffed now. BTW, the breed ban in Dublin is only for COUNCIL housing not for the city in general. My initial offer to take him stems from over TWO MONTHS.

Melp Posted June 9, 2009 Report Share Posted June 9, 2009 It still doesn't make sense though. Even if there was an amendment and Bruce were exempted properly [which he's not] it is not possible to rehome a registered dog. He would have to stay with his owner. This is what I don't get, how can anyone offer to take him when it's not legal to rehome him? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EGAR Posted June 9, 2009 Report Share Posted June 9, 2009 I don't know, I am not involved at that end as I have enough on my plate, I offered to take him if he can be brought legally into the ROI. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tegk68 Posted June 9, 2009 Report Share Posted June 9, 2009 I don't understand This seems so desperately sad. To come this far and then possibly fall at the last hurdle Thank you EGAR for your offer of help Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kola Posted June 10, 2009 Report Share Posted June 10, 2009 I've posted sarah's offer to take Bruce on the Bebo page/group for Bruce and asked the owner or the solicitor to contact EGAR. Maybe someone on there will have contact with the owner, amanda x Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kola Posted June 10, 2009 Report Share Posted June 10, 2009 Sarah, i've pm'ed you a mobile telephone number for Bruce's owner, not sure if it is current (she was on it a few months back). Amanda Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EGAR Posted June 10, 2009 Report Share Posted June 10, 2009 No contact has been made. She says on her Bebo page that my website and my email are "fake" and that she never received the fax which I sent to her solicitor at her request. There isn't much more I can do..

tegk68 Posted June 10, 2009 Report Share Posted June 10, 2009 Well bless you for trying Egar Seems like a simple and good solution was offered, why oh why is it now so complicated. I hope the decisions being made by others recently don't ultimately condemn this dog to his death, that would be unbearable . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
