Pets at Home invited DAWGdogs to the open day of their new store at
Branksome today to promote the Rescue and we would like to thank them for
this opportunity.
Helen would also like to thank Angela, Claire, Kasey and Simba (one of the DAWGdogs) for their help today.
Simba was an absolute star wagging his tail at all the people who stopped to talk to him
and ask Kasey about his skin problem.
He gave it his best and charmed many people into giving him treats.
We raised £83.53 towards Simba’s skin reconstruction which is to start
in October after his holiday in Wales with his foster Mum and Dad and canine friend Buddy.
Simba has a nasty skin scar which hasn’t healed properly
after he was knocked down by a car two years ago.
This started to bleed after he came into the rescue and he was seen by Kasey’s vet
Mr Spencer of Spring Corner Vets who specialises in skin reconstruction.
Even though some of the wound has healed this skin is tight and without surgery will not heal completely.
Mr Spencer is interested in this type of work and has kindly agreed to do the operations at a reduced price,
but this will still run into several hundred pounds depending on how many operations are needed.
We are starting a Simba appeal to help with the costs of this treatment
and if you would like to contribute this can be done via Paypal on our website or by contacting the Rescue.
We would like to thank Claire who raised an additional £31.97
collecting at Pets at Home on her own on Sunday.
We at the Rescue would like to wish Angela and Colin a Happy Anniversary for today and thank Angela for coming along today even though she had a meal to cook for several people.
We would also like to thank Mr Glover the manager at Pets at Home for the food that he donated to the Rescue.
