Thank You from Mia

To everybody that donated money and unwanted gifts for raffles and tombolas to raise money for me!

I was very hungry, sore and depressed when I arrived at Yorkshire Rose Dog Rescue. The day after I arrived I got kennel cough which then turned into a chest infection and they thought I wouldn't make it ..... but with antibiotics, good food and lots of TLC - I did !!
I was on 8 small meals per day consisting of fresh chicken, pasta & rice. That was a bit expensive apparently but now I'm still on some chicken but mainly on boooring dog food........!
I have developed from the timid skinny bag of bones hiding in a dog bed - to a cheeky monkey and a bit of a handful !
I now have a posh fleece jumper (donated by a lovely kind lady called Kim at http://www.thesmartdogcompany.co.uk/)  to keep me warm at night and while in the car   - and a posh matching lead and collar of my very own .... I've never had anything nice before.
I am going for a day's stay at the local veterinary surgeons for something called spaying and vaccinations - I think it's some sort of spa day so I hope I can get my nails done!!!!

Anyway - thank you to everyone who helped with donations - it has gone directly to assist with my (rather large) food bill, got me some new clothes and will also help pay the bill at the spa!!

Thank you so much

PS Sorry about the poor photos but I'm a bit bouncy these days and find it difficult to stay still !!

Update on Mia

Mia is doing really well.  She is recovering from kennel cough which turned into a nasty chest infection.

Harry and Kath are doing a fabulous job and it just goes to prove what a difference a good diet and TLC can make!

Look at her now!

In Memory of Beau

Lovely Beau was a gorgeous collie who was rescued from the pound in March 2011 with kennel cough. Beau was very underweight but fought his way back to fitness and was then diagnosed with parvo which he also beat.  He was adopted by a lovely couple in Leeds called Lisa and Julian. Sadly just 2 days before Christmas Beau was diagnosed with cancer and had to be put to sleep. His owners are devastated. This lovely dog fought against so many obstacles that came his way and was a joy to know. 
Thank you Lisa and Julian for giving him the best months of his life

RIP Beau
