Taco just found out she was going for a drive to Rock Harbour. Is anyone else having trouble trying to tell their dog and getting them to understand that gas is expensive?

The SPCA held their yard sale on Saturday and would like to thank all those volunteers who helped out and worked so hard to set up in the sweltering heat. Thank you to all those who donated and for those who stopped by and shopped, bought food and pop, we thank you.

Hello, I just wanted to send along a picture of Miss Ellen (Aka Eve) and Miss Gabby (Aka Sweet baby Jane). As you can see they are the best of friends. Ellen is still as social as ever and is a petite bundle of energy! I’m happy to report that Gabby has also come out of her shell and isn’t as afraid as people as she was once. It takes her some time, but she does venture out just to say hi to visitors and quickly makes her exit again!

Thanks!
Vicki Mahar

This is Tiny and she is a beautiful Pomeranian mix and has such a sweet and loving personality. Tiny is a young female and is still a baby at about 8 to 10 months old.

Tiny is in need of a miracle. She was born with a condition that causes a part of her eyelid to turn inwards so that her lashes rub against her eyes. As you can imagine it’s like having a grain of sand caught in you eye constantly, it’s very irritating to her and causes her some discomfort.The condition is in both eyes but her right eye is significantly worse. Tiny has cornea damage from the constant irritation to her eyes and there is a possibility that she may loose her sight by 3 years of age.

There is hope.

A specialist is coming to the province in September, each visit costs approximately $155.00 and Tiny would most likely need surgery to correct this problem. In order to receive the surgery Tiny would have to leave the province. This surgery is her only hope at keeping her vision. Although we believe she could still be a happy, well adjusted dog even if she lost her sight we cannot accept that she would be in constant pain.

IS THERE A MIRACLE FOR TINY? WE SURE HOPE SO!

The best thing that could happen for Tiny is to find a family who will be invested in helping her maintain her vision or be committed in removing the problem so that she lives her life comfortably. That’s what we are hoping for, and although we know it’s alot to ask we believe that to love and happiness this little girl would bring would far outweigh the monetary costs.

Failing that we are hoping for help from everyone! We really would like to give this girl a chance. Suggestions, donations, other groups that might be willing to help, every possible solution would be welcome.

Why so much trouble for one little dog? Well, you’d have to meet her to understand. She steals you heart in seconds and that heart aches to see her suffer. She’s so young, and loving and beautiful and could live a fantastic life, pain free. That’s the miracle we’re hoping for.

Together we can help Tiny get the help she needs.

This beautiful female came to the shelter with her kittens. She has been a devoted mama but would very much like to have someone take care of her now, with as much love as she has shown her kittens. Mandy is friendly, loving and very sweet, she deserves a chance to know love.

———————————————————–

Morley is one of Mandy’s kittens and the only boy she had. Morely is Mr. Go-Get-Em. Playful, curious and very, very quick!! He’s a beautiful kitten, just look at that face.
——————————————–

This is another of Mandy’s kittens. Mazie is just as beautiful as her brother Morley, in fact she’ll tell you she’s far prettier! Beauty and sweetness. That’s Mazie

This little girl is Bonnie and she is about eight months old. Bonnie is a sook! All she wants is attention all of the time. Due to her past experiences Bonnie is very jealous over her food, treats and attention, because of this we believe that she should not go to a home with small children or other dogs. We figure she’s part Diva and wants to be the center of attention.

————————————

Cooey is a one year old male mixed breed. Cooey is a warm and loving dog and loves to have you spend time and attention with you, he also enjoys playing in the brook by the shelter!

Meet Sunny!! Sunny was found in Lewin’s Cove and is looking for her family. Anyone know who Sunny is?

This past Wednesday, July 2, the Heritage Riders and Friends had a Poker Run for the SPCA. The two winners of the Run were Kris Shave and Mike Brennan who donated their winnings back to the SPCA. Kris presented shelter Volunteer Tina Baker with the proceeds totaling $230.00.

This little male terrier mix was found in the Lewin’s Cove area. He’s not very old and is not neutered, he’s very friendly and sweet and we are hoping to help him get back home. If you know this dog or have any information regarding him please contact the shelter at 891-8000.
