We always knew that there would be some Tia dogs that would need our help when we moved.
Here is Melvaig, he is coming up 7yrs old and has been in a home for the past 18 months. He is not happy with the new baby and is looking for a foster home asap.
No cats or small fluffies but he is okay with other greyhounds.
Update….Melvaig is now in a foster home with a greyhound girl and what can I say, ” he is besotted “
He would really like to go and live with a greyhound girl.
He is in foster in West Yorkshire, please message the rehoming page if you are interested in our lovely gentleman…
The writing was on the wall soon after he came up the drive back at Moorside. Came last in both his trials in Ireland and ended up here so long ago, we had to dig out the file to find his name.
Tarzan had sponsor dog written all over him. We cannot remember even risking him in a rehome. Still he has been blissfully happy all these years and the staff love him.
It was Tarzan’s birthday a couple of years ago…i cant believe he is 11 years old.
Six and a half years he has been at Tia. Still absolutely nuts with other breeds but an absolute gentleman who loves his life at Tia. Please click on the video….
We are looking for a volunteer to look after the sponsor scheme. You must have a good understanding of excel and word to be able to manage the database, process new sponsors & renewals etc. You should be able to communicate with the fundraiser and the farm for updates on the sponsor animals
If you think this may be of interest, then please email me to discuss further
A massive thank you to Animal Friends Pet Insurance for their kind donation of £5000 towards our fundraising for building a new kennel block at Easter Hardmuir Farm.
UPDATE…he hadn’t been right for a while and had started to lose weight. Just a week after the dogs move to Scotland we lost him, he had a tumour on his spleen and had fluid in his chest and around his heart. Just a couple months shy of his twelfth birthday….he was never any bother our Simon. If he’d ended up anywhere else he would have been pts years ago. Thanks to all his sponsors for allowing him to have been happy…very happy.
Simon would be an out of court settlement waiting to happen, so it is far better that he lives here He is the sole remaining resident of the scabby five that came a few years ago and likes the joint so much, he elected to stay
A terrible waste but not worth the risk. Even worse than Jones, his DNA is hardwired to remove any animal from the planet whose lineage doesn’t go back 4000 years.
It was the end of March when this special boy fell ill. We knew he had Cushing’s but after a week in the vets we found out that it was the worst type. Adrenal. He has being doing really good up until yesterday when he stopped eating again. Best steak mince is the only thing he will eat at the moment. I don’t think he has long. My beautiful, gentle Terence. One of the Sheffield 13, Mr Mole and Bungles brother. We have lost so many horses and dogs lately, they certainly do not live long enough…
Brothers and sisters, I bid you beware, of giving your heart, to a dog to tear….
