Belle – Dumped in a pound at 12 – another dental needed

This poor old girl.  We went into a pound today to get photos of some of the dogs waiting in there for their owners to come for them, or for new homes to find them.

It was really upsetting for our 2 volunteers – as they aren’t used to seeing so many unwanted and unloved dogs – it is never easy.

A note from Maddi’s new family

Maddi (Bella) is doing great and coping with Casper admirably for such a young girl. There have been definite signs of bonding since last week with plenty of mouth licking going on both ways, especially if i’ve had Casper out and she hasn’t seen him for a while.

The pound is full – yet another 4 lives saved

Another visit to the pound – so many lost and lonely faces – we managed to save 4 again today.

 

In just this week alone, Rain Rescue have saved the lives of 8 dogs – 7 of them were in a dog pound facing possible destruction – only 1 was handed in by the owner.

 

In just last week – we saved 6 dogs lives.  Amazing for a tiny rescue centre, running on such low funds.  We can’t yet even pay any staff. Continue reading

Sweet Tasha – finally goes home

Our lovely little Angel was seen by a lovely lady and somehow, Tasha managed to tell her, that she was the dog for her, and she was.

 

Tasha was thrown out with the bathwater from her previous owner.  She had a damaged leg, which Rain Rescue are going to get sorted and pay to have fixed. We are looking for donations to help us pay the bill of around £450.

Sweet little Tasha is loved once more……

Sweet little Tasha – who we got out of a dog pound.  Just a little dinky girl who never stops smiling.

Tasha has been with Rain now for just over a month and we all love her to bits – everyone gives her lots of cuddles. Especially because when she came to us, she would roll over and cower when people came near her – begging not to be hurt – as she must have been many times before. When we chased through her chip details, we found out that her previous owner had taken her to the vets for a leg injury – and never taken her back.   Continue reading

Maisie finds her forever home at last….

A trip up to the pound a few weeks ago, we had got 2 kennels free.  Whilst walking along, we saw a little scraggy old girl – who seemed scared but oblivious to the noise as she was obviously deaf.  A pound is no place for an old dog – its bad enough for the youngsters – but pitiful for the old ones. We knew Clive would foster another old girl if we took her out – so we managed to get 4 on the van that day. Continue reading

Cilla finds a new family to love her……

This girl is such a special lady, who is so gentle and kind, she is such a happy girl, that just wants to please. Cilla visited a nursing home last week, to see if they would like to adopt her. A member of staff fell in love with Cilla, and decided… Continue reading
