Day 74 of our 100 Days with 100 Dogs series arrives and once again we're beyond capacity and shouldn't take in any more dogs. We urgently need adopters for the dogs already in our care and funds to pay for their upkeep and the 30 dogs that are permanent residents.
Naturally, that lasted as long as it took for the next GSD to need our help. There is some good news with a few more dogs off to their forever homes, but still fewer than those coming in. In practical terms, we should close the gates and try and maintain our resources as best we can for the 120+ dogs until the situation improves, but that's not why we were founded. How could we say no to this little girl when she needed us?
And with your continued support, we hope that we won't have to say no - especially as often we're a last-stop call from a rescue that puts the dogs down to create space.
This regal lady is Princess and she's 11 and a half years young. Her owner left the country and felt they faced no alternative but to leave her in the property alone.
Although not underweight she is malnourished. Her diet consisted of cheap tinned food which is basically cereal and so now has an upset tummy. She's had 2 litters of puppies.
Princess has the sweetest nature but she's feeling a little bewildered at the moment. We'll give her some time and properly assess her to see what comes next.
We are constantly fundraising so that we can help dogs like Princess. If you care about German Shepherds please consider supporting us. If you work or own a business that can help then please get in touch. Every little helps if enough people are pulling together - there are even schemes like Amazon Smile, Easyfundraising and Give as you Live to earn donations when you shop online that cost you nothing.
We've recently created the Friends of GSD Welfare group and for as little as £3 per month, you gain membership to our exclusive group and access to some incredible content. We need you. Please help. ❤
