Last night we received this surprise message...

"My name is Nicki. I work at 100% Pure Honey in Washdyke. Work was kind enough to donate honey and lemon lozenges for me to use for fundraising.

I always see the good work you do saving all these precious dogs, and I can never afford to donate or help, so this was my chance. 😍 I'm a massive animal lover and have a tribe of cats and dogs!

I have managed to sell 200 bags and have raised $1000."

❤️ $1,000 WOW!! Amazing! Thank you so much for your kindness Nicki- this is a huge help for our dogs! 🐾🐾

❤️ Bossy (recent arrival) was looking lame/had a funny gait. X-rays today showed that she has moderate hip dysplasia (right side), and her growth plates were a little unusual (update - they are fine). The X-rays are going to a specialist to check them over.

On the bright side, she has been loving life with her foster family! She is enjoying all of the attention, space and freedom of the rural property. Plus, she's had no more urinary infections.

Bossy is just of many dogs that desperately needed a fresh chance. Thanks to all of our supporters for making our work possible.

💜 9 year old Fred (golden, recent arrival) and 11 year old Bella (Mini Poodle), had dentals today.

Fred needed a good scale and polish. Bella had 1 of her front incisors removed, plus a scale and polish.

Bella has been in our care for 13 months now. When she arrived, she was underweight at 4.3kg, now she is a healthy 7.2kg.

She arrived with chronic ear infections and a grade 5 heart murmur - sadly, this was previously untreated.

Bella is thriving in foster care. She gets excited to go on adventures (sometimes in the backpack) with the other dogs to the river, beach and parks. She is very attached to her foster Mum and will stay in our care for the rest of her days. 💛🐾
