THEY WILL NOT HELP ONLY OFFER PUT TO SLEEP &#8211; NOT FAIR WHEN A LIFE HAS NOT EVEN BEEN LIVED AT ALL.<br \/>\nDOLLY IS CONSIDERED TO BE:<br \/>\n1) Too expensive to treat<br \/>\n2) Too hard to re-home<\/p>\n<p>David has\u00a0claimed responsibility for her and set about getting her better and re-homing her in a suitable place.<\/p>\n<p>Dolly Has Seen a Vet &#8211; but seeks financial help or a rescue group that will help.<br \/>\nDolly weighed only 14kg, she should be around 23-27kg. She is around 18 months old. Dolly is given 3 injections and anti-biotic tablets to be given twice a day along with a special diet to build her weight back up slowly.<\/p>\n<p>David has now made himself homeless to care for Dolly because he already has a\u00a0dog, baby and girlfriend at home, and Dolly simply does not get on with my own dog Lulu.\u00a0\u00a0 HE IS SLEEPING ON HIS FRIENDS FLOOR TO CARE FOR HER.<br \/>\nDolly has a huge open\u00a0wound on her leg and needs urgent\u00a0surgery to her leg and, ear and head, this is due to take place next week. The vet has estimated it will cost between \u00a3350-\u00a3700, which is a big leap!<br \/>\nDavid has chipped Dolly already.<br \/>\nDolly can be re-homed and is already toilet trained, walks well on the lead and is learning to sit stay etc. She is not hyperactive when with people, and is easy to have around. It\u2019s just when she gets left alone or is with other dogs that she is a pain in the ass.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s funny that it was man who has hurt her and caused her physical and psychological pain and yet it is our attention she still craves&#8230;. would we be as forgiving as people?<\/p>\n<p>If you want to help Dolly, you can do so very easily:<\/p>\n<p>1) Send love and support.<\/p>\n<p>2) Invite as many people as you can to the Facebook group &#8216;Save Dolly&#8217; where you will also find regular updates<\/p>\n<p>3) Send money, (make cheques payable to the Victoria Park Village Fundraisers and send to 487 Roman Road, London, E3 5LX). Online payments can be made via Paypal &#8211; please email or see Dolly&#8217;s Facebook page for more info. All proceeds will go directly to Dolly&#8217;s bills and care and any excess will be left with the Victoria Park Village Fundraisers, whom collect money to give help and care to terminally ill children.<\/p>\n<p>4) Offer Dolly a new home &#8211; there are strict criteria and we are very lucky to now have the help of a wonderful bull breed specialist who will be conducting all home checks.<\/p>\n<p>5) Offer any suggestions for how we can raise more money to foot her bills &#8211; at present Vet Bills alone will be more than 1,000 pounds, let alone her food etc whilst we find her new home.<br \/>\nDAVID NEEDS YOUR HELP URGENTLY PLEASE CONTACT HIM DIRECTLY ON<br \/>\n07792530054<br \/>\nTel:\u00a0 0208 983 0805<br \/>\nFax: 0208 980 0707<br \/>\nwww.romanproperties.co.uk<br \/>\nor josie on 07852166883.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Tahoma; font-size: x-small;\"><span style=\"font-size: 10pt; font-family: Tahoma;\"> <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/sithean.com\/dawgdogs\/swap small.jpg\" border=\"0\" alt=\"\" hspace=\"10\" width=\"300\" height=\"122\" align=\"center\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>DOLLY (Only 18 months old)\u00a0FOUND EMACIATED STARVING AND IN NEED OF VET CARE NEEDS YOUR HELP &#8211; Please read urgent appeal below SWAP team have received this\u00a0very\u00a0urgent appeal for sweet &#8216;Dolly&#8217; who was found emaciated and starving\u00a0and is in need of urgent veterinary care and is also looking for a loving forever home in the &hellip; <a href=\"http:\/\/sithean.com\/dawgdogs\/urgent-appeal-from-south-west-animal-protection\/\" class=\"more-link\">Continue reading<span class=\"screen-reader-text\"> &#8220;Urgent appeal from South West Animal Protection&#8221;<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":8,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[4],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-263","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-appeals-from-other-rescues"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/sithean.com\/dawgdogs\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/263","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/sithean.com\/dawgdogs\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/sithean.com\/dawgdogs\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/sithean.com\/dawgdogs\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/8"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/sithean.com\/dawgdogs\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=263"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"http:\/\/sithean.com\/dawgdogs\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/263\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/sithean.com\/dawgdogs\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=263"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/sithean.com\/dawgdogs\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=263"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/sithean.com\/dawgdogs\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=263"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
