I am so sorry Andrea. R.I.P. bubs. xxx

Sorted. :)

Although I do not know him personally, I am sending well wishes and hoping he is ok.

He is gorgeous. And I love his name too, it has a lovely meaning.

Sorry to hear you are going through this. A seperation can be a very difficult time, not only for the humans involved but for the dogs too. I'd be keeping them together, especially if they have formed a strong bond. Why cause them anymore stress?

Fantastic news Anne. So happy for you both.

I agree, you sound like a very sweet and caring owner, good on you. As others have mentioned, as times passes and you get to know him more and gain more experience, you'll become more confident. I know it's easier said than done sometimes, but *try* not to worry so much. Enjoy him and enjoy puppyhood. :) It goes way too fast and before you know it, they're all grown up. All the best, though I am sure you'll do just fine. :)

So sorry LM. R.I.P. Flossie. xxx

I am so sorry Pipersal. Hugs and condolences. R.I.P. Magnum. xxx

Lucky you went past when you did.

I just gave it a go too and got through ok.

Sorry yes Hugo has gone to his forever home in Sydney, at Belrose they have 2 other Cockers, Cathy (Cocker lady) in SA found the couple who have taken him, he has settled in really well and they just love him, so a happy ending for Hugo. Maree CPR Fantastic news! Great work.

Mine snacked on cold carrots through the day (it was stinking hot here today) and had cold chicken wings and home baked dog biscuits for dinner tonight, (tuna, cheese and garlic bones, honey and oat hearts, cabanossi paws and peanut butter dogs). :)

She's gorgeous Maree. I am guessing poodle blend. She looks alot like a poodle we grew up with as kids. :)

My first thought when I saw his pic was bully x whippet. Gorgeous looking boy. :)

I was just reading this. Poor bub. Some people are just sick. A huge and to the kind lady who took him to the vet and the many kind facebookers who have pitched in towards his veterinary care. The dog who wouldn't die A dog found shot in the head and face with a pellet gun, stuffed in a garbage bag and left to die is recovering from his injuries at an animal clinic in Texas. And it's thanks, in part, to a Facebook campaign launched to help pay for his veterinary bills. The bag containing the 3-year-old male mixed breed was discovered tied to a fence in Conroe, Texas, earlier this month. When local residents opened the bag, the dog emerged, took a few steps and collapsed, according to the Montgomery County Police Reporter. The dog was covered in blood, said neighbor Tami Augustyn, leading her to believe he was a "bait dog"—or a dog used by fight dogs for practice. Augustyn rushed the dog to an emergency animal clinic, where he was treated for multiple bird-shot pellets to the face, eyes, mouth, neck and shoulders, and hypothermia from being left outside overnight. The pooch was stabilized, but according to Dr. Ron Hendrick, a vet at the Animal Emergency Clinic of Conroe, pellets remain in both eyes and it's unclear whether the dog—nicknamed Buck—was left permanently blind. A Facebook page, Buck Needs Bucks for his Buckshot Injuries, launched last week by Augustyn to help pay for the dog's estimated $5,000 in medical bills, has attracted nearly 7,000 "likes" and, according to its creator, already more than enough donations to pay for his treatment. "The last 24 hours has been overwhelming for me," Augustyn wrote on the page. "I have gone from not knowing if I would have enough money to pay for Buck’s emergency bill to having an unbelievable amount of money to provide THE BEST care possible for Buck’s recovery. I have thought long and hard about this today and how I should handle this. The conclusion is that I will be opening a separate bank account for Buck and all donations will channel thru that account and be used for Buck’s recovery and necessities." With the help of Facebook, Buck's story quickly sparked international interest. ("The dog who wouldn't die," the U.K.'s Daily Mail proclaimed.) Buck is now walking, Augustyn says, and an appointment with an opthamologist scheduled for Wednesday will determine what can be done about his vision. Police in Montgomery County say they are investigating the incident, and Augustyn says she has been in contact with law enforcement officials about donating a reward for information leading to the arrest of the person responsible. Sadly, cases like Buck's are not uncommon, particularly in Texas. In July, a small dog was discovered tortured in what the Dallas Morning News described as "one of the worst cases of animal cruelty ever reported in the county." The pug mix—nicknamed Hope by her rescuers—was found near Weatherford, Texas, dehydrated, with her mouth sealed shut with electrical tape, tongue protruding and five large cuts that took more than 100 stitches to close. Hope was later adopted by the family on whose ranch she was first spotted wandering. And Hendrick told the paper he sees animals "wounded as badly as Buck about once a month." http://au.news.yahoo.com/world/a/-/world/15789036/dog-who-wouldnt-die/

I agree. Sadly it won't bring your beautiful Buddy back, but it needs to be done to prevent this tragedy from happening again. No dog or their family deserves to go through what you are going through Caz. It's just so wrong.

Thinking of you Caz.

She's very pretty. Crossing everything you find her a carer/home soon.

OMG, that is so sad. I am so sorry. R.I.P. little one xxx

I am so sorry for your loss. Thinking of you and your family at this sad time. R.I.P. Inka. xxx

OMG Caz, I am so so sorry. I am sitting here in tears and feel sick to the stomach. I can't begin to imagine how you are feeling. What a horrible way for Buddy to leave this world. My thoughts are with you, Leah and doggies. xxx R.I.P. gorgeous Buddy. xxx

I see all of the dogs on that kill list made it out. Great ( ) *if* they went to genuine rescue, but a real concern if they ended up with PR.

The same info in the opening post was posted on the blacktown pound thread yesterday except in the BP thread, it says to contact the pound, not Melanie or pound rounds... Post 61. http://www.dolforums.com.au/topic/244980-blacktown-pound-week-beginning-31122012/page__st__60
