HAPPY 2017

NEW YEARS eve, is not one of my favourite evenings to celebrate.

Don't get me wrong, I would love to celebrate to say good bye to the year of 2016 lessons, and welcome the new year 2017 in, gladly with a glass of Champagne.

The fireworks are making it very hard to be happy and celebrate.

Today is our home back to normal, but it has been tough days, and evenings.

The house of 12 dogs, there have been chaos, with barking, howling and shaking.

It is not only by midnight, it is several days before and several days after.

I am thinking of the wild animals, and also Military with PTSD, well.....all people with PTSD. I cannot imagine what is going on in their minds.

One year, I celebrated New Year in Switzerland. At Midnight all the churches started to play with their churchbells, no fireworks. It was magic very soothing for the mind and soul.

Earlier today I saw in the Swedish newspaper, that many people became absurd with handling the firework, hurting other people, children and even making false 911 calls, only to throw fire work at the ambulance people when they arrived.

May we come to a Solution for next New Years Eve-2018, lets post solutions and not harsh words.

                       Happy New Year all Animal Lovers, lets become better this year 2017.

That's Amore!

Give Them A Great 2009

On the 28th December (for better or worse) I took into my/our care, 2 puppies. They had been abandened on the house construction site opposite our parco and a couple of children from our parco had found them.
Apparently they were from a litter of 5 all of whom were trying to be sold by a native - unsuccessfully - a couple of days before that. So these two were just dumped.

Yesturday I took them to Dr Dorothea Fritz's animal rescue and vets surgery to see if they could take them in. They couldn't and the rescue center is now closed for the whole of January. They did however give them a general health check, the results of which are:- General health appears good - their temperatures were normal. They are about 8 weeks old of unknown breed/s - expected to mature to between small and medium sized adults.
They received 'Frontline' anti-flea treatment and are also now having a course of worming tablets. They can be neutured from 3 months and begin their innoculation programme around the same time.

The dynamic duo are: A bitch who has been called 'Katie' - light brown fur with pale brown eyes.
A dog who has been called 'Teilo' - tricolour coloured fur with dark brown eyes. Now that they have been fed, watered and warmed, they are bright, alert, keen, and already making efforts on the house-training front.
Does anyone know of someone/a family who would like these two?
I know that this is a big ask but we cannot keep them; our circumstances don't allow it nor does the time frame for innoculations/pet passport quirements.
All the kit that they now have (bowls, food, bedding, dirt box and pads) will be going with them.

With many thanks. Becky Masters
