Llwyncelyn Posted October 3, 2006 Share Posted October 3, 2006 I will not go into details but its horrendous and I need both constructive advice and help. That is why this posting and hopefully that Christine Animal reads us and sends me a pm and we can then exchange ideas and telephone numbers. Please believe me its horrific and just sickens me to my heart. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Llwyncelyn Posted October 3, 2006 Author Share Posted October 3, 2006 Please can someone tell me (I am a dunce in such matters) how to append a digital photograph to this mail so that everyone can see what man is capable of doing to those who we allegedly love. regards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lori Posted October 3, 2006 Share Posted October 3, 2006 Russethouse posted it on another thread. I just copied and pasted it here... Hope she doesn't mind.You have to upload the image first - try http://photobucket.com/sitemap.phpWhen you have uploaded it, edit to 50% (you get the option in photobucket) then copy the IMG code and paste here, but you only see if it has worked when you post, not in preview.Good Luck !

Christine Animal Posted October 3, 2006 Share Posted October 3, 2006 Here he is... [IMG]http://i13.photobucket.com/albums/a269/lavande/NeglecteddoginPercy.jpg[/IMG] I shall try to give you a call a bit later, once the postman has been (otherwise I won't hear anything!). You are in 50, which SPA did you contact? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lori Posted October 3, 2006 Share Posted October 3, 2006 He is ADORABLE ! Even if he is in bad shape. Could he have been lost? Abandoned? Is he friendly? Are you going to keep him? Will you be able to clean him up or are you going to take him somewhere? Poor thing. He looks so cute. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lori Posted October 3, 2006 Share Posted October 3, 2006 Forgot to mention Christine - Russethouse posted it in The Lighter Side on a fairly old, but renewed post called Trees on Poles Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Llwyncelyn Posted October 3, 2006 Author Share Posted October 3, 2006 Lori he belongs if that is the word to an elderly couple who live in an immaculate house but with the dog chained up outside in all winds and weather and when he or she goes to the loo the lady of the house again if that is the descriptive word comes out and throws water all over the area and the dog. I have been there and had a mouthful but gave one back and in no uncertain terms.If we can get it back then we will have it and look after it with our other dogs. Fact.However to get it back a problem but Christine and ourselves are working on it. rdgs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lori Posted October 3, 2006 Share Posted October 3, 2006 That is HORRIBLE ! Why does she have the dog if she doesn't want to care for him? Will she allow you to take him? It doesn't appear that she wants him. Will she allow you to clean him up, perhaps wash him and give him a trim so the mud doesn't have to much fur to stick to? Though this could require taking him to a groomer as the weather is colder now for outdoor bathing. Is this "woman" mean to you? Will she let you unleash the poor thing and play with him a bit?Surely this type of bad treatment is illegal here??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beryl Posted October 3, 2006 Share Posted October 3, 2006 Could you offer to make or provide a shelter for it? Perhaps it's the photo but it just looks to me like a wet shaggy dog rather than an undernourished/ mangey one.If you succeed in getting that dog, might they not just go out and get another?Education rather than confrontation may be the best route.

Christine Animal Posted October 3, 2006 Share Posted October 3, 2006 You are quite right Beryl. These situations are always delicate as if there is confrontation, the dogs often "disappear". Maybe here it is not deliberate cruelty, but ignorance and/or madness. I don't know much about it yet and am unfortunately not in the area to try any discussion with the owners, but we are going to try a "soft" approach.

Llwyncelyn Posted October 3, 2006 Author Share Posted October 3, 2006 Dear Beryl my wife and I have condemned each other for we have sat around and just watched this for some months. I have been there and the guy is a bit how can one say not with us so that might be the problem. However the house is immaticulate so that too might be the problem.Christine on our behalf is going to approach the owners for if we get it back then we will give it a good home and make sure its safe and secure. Also Christine hopefully and kindly will offer them a sum of money (from my wife and I) to take the dog off their hands. Let us see if that does the trick.Will keep you posted.

Lori Posted October 3, 2006 Share Posted October 3, 2006 Very good of you Llwyncelyn. I wish you the best on this one - the doggie too.Christine, you are a true animal lover. If ever I can help you in the Vaucluse (dept. 84), do let me know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harley Posted October 4, 2006 Share Posted October 4, 2006 Good luck you guys. Not an easy task ahead by the sound of it. Unless someone like you cares a whole awful lot, nothing is going to get better, it's not!Dr Seuss (The Lorax) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christine Animal Posted October 4, 2006 Share Posted October 4, 2006 Thanks Lori and Harley. We haven't got very far yet. I have spoken to the owners twice on friendly terms, but they say they want to keep the dog.A suivre... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Russethouse Posted October 26, 2006 Share Posted October 26, 2006 I thought about this today, is there anymore news ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Llwyncelyn Posted October 26, 2006 Author Share Posted October 26, 2006 Yes there is in that the dog has unfortunately disappeared. There have been sightings so I am told and I am also told that the dog is apparently safe and well. I cannot confirm or deny anything but will update the forum when I know.However my source is somewhat impeccable and I think I will rely upon the fact that the dog is safe and well. All I need now is a veil and a crystal ball and I might be able to tell you where the dog is but of course I do not know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christine Animal Posted October 26, 2006 Share Posted October 26, 2006 I know Lwyncelyn saw the Maire and I spoke to him on the phone while they were there to explain the situation. He said he was going to see the owner of the dog and I believe the SPA was called in too. So I hope things are now better for the dog.Edit : Sorry, posted at the same time as you !

Russethouse Posted October 26, 2006 Share Posted October 26, 2006 Thanks for the update, fingers crossed that the dog is now a little better off, it was wet, cold and windy here today and for some reason the poor dog came into my mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
