Short news 5

Dear friends, good news it seems  that our information about FBM was not correct and they are taking in  any kind of dogs, how lucky they are because they can do it, for example us we cannot take too many podencos or other breed of dogs , just because we cannot rehome them and if it will be only me and not thinking about the future , I  would take all the podencos here, but you know that they are quite difficult to rehome, so if we want to ensure the future of the shelter, we cannot take them in large numbers and if the rehoming of males and/or black galgos doesn´t increase , I am sure that sooner than later we will have problems.

The statistics from the first quarter of 2014 are absolutely incredible, we are in numbers never seen before.

Without words, the activity here is absolutely incredible, the whole day running up and down with the castrations, blood tests and all the rest , and do you want to know something , all this could not be possible without YOU.

Horses, horses, horses.

I like all the animals but obviously I like more some animals than the others, it can be just because they have suffered more at least from my point of view or I don’t know why but the truth is that I like galgos and horses really a lot so now that we have the facilities , we are seriously thinking about to rescue more horses and also other animals so our Scooby can become a real sanctuary for all of them , but we need money for doing that; we need a lot of money , we need to hire more people, we need to pay all the vet bills and they are not cheap.

At this moment we need to castrate 2 donkeys, 2 horses and 2 ponies, and also to microchip 6 of these animals, all that will cost around 800 to 900 euros and this is why I am asking you to help us.

I am asking you to help us with this invoice , but also we need to plan a long term strategy , we need to do fundraising among the horse people, among the donkey people and among the people who consider to donate for all these animals that they are not dogs or cats, we are looking to expand our team with all these people, many of you already know about the Scooby fever with dogs and cats and now we want more people to experience the scooby fever with all kind of animals, we have the space and the possibilities , we only need the money so among all of us let’s find it. Thank you very much, kisses bites and loving neighing. Fermín

The mysterious dog carrier

Unfortunately for  Scooby  we are sadly used to collect stray animals, although we still keep on being surprised about the morality of some people, like in the case of the mysterious dog carrier.

Last Saturday the local police in Medina del Campo came to bring us an abandoned dog , the funny thing was the way they found it:

Around 9.00h am a resident of Medina del Campo, reported to the police because he had found a dog at his home door within a carrier. The agents arrived and found that the animal did not have any identification system, but  the owners had left a half can of food with him.

It is outrageous that the owners are so cynical, leaving the poor dog with food, and also with a sign in the carrier where you can read " I love my pet". Is it awesome.

How people can do something like this? if they had problems with the animal at least  they could show their faces, well, there  are lots of questions , but better not thinking too much. We prefer to act as soon as possible, so the most important thing right now is finding a real family for this little dog. Again we need your help, and once again we thank you in advance.

News flash

Poor Campéon, a horse they brought to us last year.  The thing is that he has an infection in his reproductive part and he only feels relief after Dani applies several ointments on his privates and it really makes him feel a lot better, but he is hiding it most of the time, any way, we hope that from all this there won’t be a long lasting lovestory developing between Dani and Campéon;-)

 

Canela

Finally the day arrived, some people were interested in you, they loved the way you looked and how sweet you were and took the decision to adopt you. All of us were very happy for you that you could finally find the home you deserved. We were asking about you and how you were doing constantly, you didn’t like to be left alone in the house and you had a bad time because you thought you were going to be left again. But your owners came back every time and little by little you got over it but this fear of being left alone never left you.  For personal reasons these owners could no longer take care of you and decided to find you a home where you would have more attention and where you could enjoy the company of another dog to be able to play together, and you found it. Another change for you, and you didn’t understand very well why you had to pass from one person to the other, but you accepted because you saw they loved you there as well.

We all thought you were doing OK and that you were happy, and your new owners said that they were happy to have you and that you enjoyed being with your new brother but in a short period of time this all changed. Your current owners decided to get rid of your little brother by giving him to the first person that was interested and they decided to take you to the dogpound. Good thing that we found out what they were trying to do and we put a stop to it, how could they do this to you?

We do not understand. What kind of people decide to give a good life to a dog and then later leave it in the dogpound?  The most logical thing would have been to call us to see if we could help in solving the problem, why did they not do that? Aren’t they ashamed of themselves? They say they cannot have any dogs because they are going to move to an apartment and they just get rid of them like that... like it was nothing ..

Dear CANELA, again you are looking for a home and we will keep on looking for one for you where they will love you forever and ever, we promise and it is our duty to find you these people that will never let you go or leave you, sorry for failing you and for making you suffer, we thought we had done the right thing. We hope we will find you that person soon, enough has happened. YOU DESERVE IT!
