I have researched the word but it doesn’t seem to fit. Although the kennels are now in Scotland the work in Yorkshire hasn’t stopped, the day to day routine with the animals hasn’t stopped. It doesn’t seem to make any difference where me and Bob sleep the work of the charity is exactly the same.
For example; getting a lot of dogs off the allotment with the help of Manda from Northern Greyhound Rescue, (although there are still a lot of dogs on there that they won’t part with ). Getting Angus the rough coated lurcher up here from Hull as no other “local” rescues would take him. Getting the 2 whippets off the allotment into a “local” foster home in Leeds within 24 hours of them being taken there.
Getting Rita’s dogs back to her last week in Chorley. I did an eight hundred mile round trip. So no I guess I’m not actually “local” to anything…except my dogs and if they ever need my help? I’m on my way.
This is Zuko when he got back home. He had never been in kennels, Rita got him direct from Ireland as a useless pup. Over seven years he has lived in a home, never experiencing kennels. The transporter from Silsden nearly killed him & Bandit when he fetched them up. He had been at Tia for two months and he had a lovely comfortable journey back home…it’s called a decent sized travel cage and bedding….
I have to admit I was sad when I saw the signs for Yorkshire Dales and the M62….but this cheered me up no end. And obviously the fact that my mate has made a full recovery…Deb

Update on Mr Mole….all his tests have come back clear. No clue what he did. He has lost a bit of weight though so we are trying to get that back on. He is a worry my boy from the day I had to drag him out of that hell hole to even now. It was the absolute worst place I have ever been…It will haunt me forever. It was I think at that point that I realised people will never stop abusing these precious souls.
Thank you for all your donations which amounted to just short of £1500…which has covered his vet bill and a bit extra for his food shopping. Beef is his favourite, closely followed by ham and chicken.
Thanks to Moray Coast vets and Chris at Donaldson’s. Even though he isn’t our vet anymore he still cares about all the Tia animals that he has treat over the years…Deb

This young lad travelled all the way up from Hull today with Jess & Millie and a Lot of sardines.
He is 10 months old and needs a firm owner who can teach him how to be a model citizen. He was in a good home but they had 4 small people and couldn’t devote the time he needs. They were advised to kill him by a well known organisation…
So he is here, in a state of shock, in a kennel. He will be mortified for a while but he will be fine.
I’m not calling him Zeus…any ideas for a new name?
Home needed ASAP.
