Dorset Dog Rescue

This is Lucy aka Becky she came into us from Ireland with the worst mange we have seen. She had burns and the mites just would not die was awful and she was yelping in pain as she just couldnt reach all her itches. When Lilly shaved her to the skin to give her some relief the mites were running all over her body. It was a long process getting Becky better put Lilly Davies and Elizabeth Berger did and she went off to her new home.

This is Abraham... He is an older Golden Retriever Gentleman and is winning hearts where ever he goes... He is a lovely boy and is appreciating all the attention he is recieving now...
He has his fair share of problems though... His coat is very matted and stinky at the moment but we are working on it slowly... He has severe muscle wastage on his rear legs and can barely stand... He is toppling over when he is up for too long...
His teeth are ground down nearly to the gums...
It makes me so sad, Abrahams life could have been so very different... He doesn't even have the capability to shake when he's wet...

After a few weeks with DDR



Abraham had been with DDR and we made him all better then  days after this pic was taking he died off a brain tumour on 27th November 2009 RIP poor old Abes. And a huge thankyou to Christine Gillingham for making his last days special ones she is a special lady.

This is Sammy (previously Moses) who was found roaming round rural Ireland in a right old state. He could barely walk as he was so malnourished has no muscle in his body and back legs keep caving in. He weighed a measley 10 kg and was one of the weakest dogs I have had. We had to shave him as he stunk and was very greasy. And the most beautiful natured dog in the world.

Sammy now he has found his perfect home here at DDR with me Julie. He is now 17kg and looking amazing.


Sammy passed away on 21st January 2010

This is little Tramp who was thrown away in the bin at just 4 weeks old.
