Firstly... Thank you again to everyone who joined in with the raffle and helped make it so successful, we raised an awful lot of money to build the shelter, some of which we will have to use to get the lot cleared completely and of course costs always go up but we are making great progress, it is amazing to finally see our dream coming true and qwe couldnt have done any of it without your generous help. so again i say thank you .
Arrivals and departures.....
We have made a couple of rehomings recently, firstly sweet little Sandy who has made a trip northward and is now a citizen of the USA and also puppy Mel was adopted by a Brazilian girl living here in Playa, she may be coming back for Negrita soon when she moves into her new house with a garden. Thed may soon be going to a new home to live with Ellie and Osa ..
We have had some new arrivals too (my camera is playing up but i will post pics soon )
We had another mom and babies arrive mid-week, the five new borns are huge and very healthy (as are both the other litters we have here) we also took in five new young pups this week two of which are a bit sick as they came from the pererra and are very underfed and weak.
Sushi is currently living at Maureens as Jez who was looking after her had to move to a no-pet apartment but hopefully she will be able to move back with us when the shelter is finished.
Ok i think thats about it for now i will get some pics up soon.\Thank you for your patience
Oh, Jez. I'm sorry.

Good News For Mutts!

I just heard on a radio news program that if you own a mutt, you're vet bills are about 1/2 what they would be if you own a pure bred. Mutts are much less likely to suffer from disease inherent to pure bred dogs that are a result of breed development (i.e. skin ailments, etc).

Another reason to adopt a mutt from Peanut Animal Shelter! Steve has given me a big fat no when it comes to adopting another dog. I've tried using my womanly charms as Andy suggested but that didn't work! So, now, I'm turning off the womanly charm until I get my way!!

I just want to thank everyone who has been able to help us so far raise so much towards getting the new shelter built, ...but we stiull have a little way to go yet, obviously "quotes" and "actual" are never quite the same which means although we are almost there on the shelter build we still need to raise a bit more to pay for the materials to construct the large runs for the dogs and also stuff like 3-4 tons of gravel for the walkways, money for lighting / electic and some kind of water purification system as bottled water for so many dogs is incredibly expensive !!!
We still have 6 pens available for sponsorship and if everyone who has so far sponsored a kennel could PM me so we can sort out plaques and logos asap i would appreciate it.
Sorry to keep holding my hand out

One of the small pups that came from the pererra on sat morning is at the vets for a blood transfusion as he is sooo poorly without this and a saline drip he wont make it, Bernie was non too pleased to be volounteered as the donor
My camera has well and truly died, but it has been busy for the last few months so sorry no pics til i can get a new one which will hopefully be very soon.
Andy

Oh so sad for the poor little pup! But yay to Bernie for his help!! If only he knew what good he was doing!!

I have an extra digital camera. An older model that has suffered a few drops...but still works. It is yours if you want it!

Also, how many characters can we put on the plaques. Someone in our group would like to put a saying and then list all of our names.

Likewise Baybe! It actually helps me out. I'm going through so much stuff to get rid of, I don't know what do with it all! I have a desktop computer that needs a home, wish I could send it to Mexico!
