why take staffy x puppies - and so young? They are not worth heaps of money ...and need a lot of looking after

Very strange- dear little things .I do hope the owner is OK .

Wow! One lucky dog

In the days before widespread microchips, the Petsearch newsletter had many stories of dogs being "on the lam" for many days and travelled considerable distances. The Anatolian Shepherd I found was from a few suburbs away and had crossed a six lane road.

Just saw a new post from Squishy Faced Rescue - they've remained in contact with council and are willing to assist but council said they have it under control, if the owner doesn't come forward they will desex and rehome them with their own rescue protocols. Apparently council is surprised by all the interest in these 2 and none for their other dogs. Sounds like owner still not found though.

That's good news - wonder what her next adventure will be ?

Oh dear - an impossible task, I would think. I didn't know rabies was a problem in India ..how worrying , with so many strays/ferals .

Update : Good news. It has since been reported that Athena has been returned to her owners.

She looks so damned proud of herself

I find the figures laughable considering a friend working for the rspca put more bodies in the incinerator in one day than quoted for a year's fatalies in greyhounds? Where is the fury for that? Even worse he discovered after already putting the majority in that a big one still had a pulse when picked up by the leg. Upon checking those still in the trolley every one over a certain weight all had a pulse. When he reported this, was told "Don't worry the Don't feel a thing, if we gave all the big ones a full dose we would go broke" He lost it and fled...was pretty hysterical by the time he came to see me. told me and said he can't go public as he had signed a document of non disclosure so gagged. I never told anyone at the time. Was too scared. No idea who did tell the papers but although printed and on the news nothing came of it.. Forget the year

these two were found at the Macleay island Bowls club on July 26th, locals have concerns for the owner as the dogs seem well cared for Read the comments in this FB post https://www.facebook.com/share/p/14GnMCR9J6P/

My terriers have loved tug toys.

Bones from the meat department in the grocery store works wonders. snaptube vidmate

I’m getting my sweet 8-week-old Staffordshire puppy next week. I’ll be staying home with him the first week, and then I’m considering bringing him to the office with me once a week. I’m a university student working twice a week. I plan to work from home one day and go to the office the other day. 9apps tutuapp

How nice At least she is chipped

As long as humanely done (which I am sure it is), then I see no problem. One zoo in Australia(won't mention name in case some numnut hears about it) used to take horses (not sure if they still do). They came to your property, shot the horse there and removed it. I can tell you that if you saw a horse killed instantly by an expert when it is happily and quietly munching on hay, most would understand that it is a much better way to go than any alternative i know of.

looks as if Liverpool Council has attempted to contact the owner LG https://www.facebook.com/share/p/1CdCTZuAy1/ and https://www.facebook.com/share/p/1C8bRgQ45Z/ Well done @AndyK for getting the info out there

I would be happy for my body to be fed to the local lions - Monarto Zoo - I hate the whole funeral ripoff business

While it may appear shocking - I think their request is very sensible.

I've just seen this AndyK. Did you find the owner? If you are on FB there are number great lost and found pet pages. I'm in the Logan ones but there would be at least one major one for the Calamvale area. The breed isn't super common so there would probably be a QLD breed page too.

I heard a story of a tourist asking (in an African safari park?), why didn't they feed the lions a vegan diet? The tour guide replied that it was because there weren't enough vegans available.
