Not So Happy Ending ………. YET

♥beautiful Heavenne♥

Just as we thought that we finally found a home for Heavenne .

Heavenne is returned!

Its no fault of adopter. They badly wanted to keep Heavenne but they received strong objections from family members. We understand that in giving a dog a home if there is no support from your immediate family members, the adoption can be very stressful.

before

Heavenne is found to have medical problems. No wonder she is on the streets. To all pure breed owners, especially large breeds.if you are not willing to spend on your pets please do not adopt them. Pedigree with long hair will suffer being a stray!

Thanks to Mrs Lai for bringing Heavenne to the vet and sponsoring her medication.♥♥♥

Heavenne might have CHD canine Hip Dysplasia..and she has to be on animal glucosamine (sorry forgot the name of the medication) and it cost rm200plus for 3months!

*Heavenne has dry eyes problem too, probably been a stray for quite sometime.She too has a leg fracture. Painkillers to be given temporarily to stop her pain,& this needs to be observed for at least a month to confirm whether a surgery is needed.

Now we really have to look for a responsible owner who is willing to take care of her.for more info about Heavenne.please contact Vivienne 012 2521562 .

We have no choice but to be thick faced >_<

We have make several appeals for donation and contribution in so many occasions that we’re pretty much thick faced by now @_@

Today we like to appeal for donation of dogs and cats food ( yes.. cat too ). Our shelter may not house any cats but Aunty Kiew dutifully feed the stray cats near her place everyday. We’re currently running low on canned food.

Canned food is pretty much a privileged meal in the shed.. As we have limited amount of canned food, we mostly mixed it with rice and serve, or only serve it to the furrizens that we find having no appetite.. We would absolutely loved to feed them yummy food, but due to budget constraint, the furrizens main meal consist of kibbles ( many many thanks to everyone for donating the kibbles, it really help us save lots of $$ which in turn is used to cover the furrizen’s medical fee ) and rice with vege/meat/egg mixture.

But most importantly is of coz what the furrizens think.. so we did a quick survey with the furrizens..

“Canned Food.. like or not?” :D

Jacky Boy, a bundle of energy

Jacky Boy is now around 9 months old, and is really a bundle of energy!

When you take him for a walk, it is him that walked you, not the other way round.. And since most of us are no match for him, we will make sure the surrounding area has no other male dogs and let him run around. He will dash to one end of the shed, and then turn around the run to the other end..

~Run here, run there~

~Sniff here, Sniff there ~

~Rest a while to hydrate himself_

~Then it’s time to leash him and put him back into the cage~

*sigh* We don’t really have a choice but to cage him and let him run around once a day.. but since there are more than one male dog in the shed, they are most likely to get into fights. We can’t be around 24-7 to watch over them and stop the fights.. therefore we have no choice but to resort to confining the male dogs separately into cage.

Bubbly Bubbles is off to heaven

Bubbles, who’s a bundle of joy during the IOI adoption drive, has bid us farewell to join the departed furrizens in heaven.

Bubbles, whom i nicknamed Yawning Bubbles for the obvious reason will be missed tremendously by us. She was so loved by everyone of us who were at the adoption drive.

~Yawning Bubbles~

 

~Bubbles the sleeping beauty~

Bubbles, Rest In Peace…

The sign that left us devastated

The moment that we all have been dreading has finally show up one day in the form of a big notice board…

The place that we’re currently occupying to temporarily house the rescued strays and abandoned pets will be developed in the near future.

While we’re searching up and down for new place to relocate our shelter, we hope to get furrizens here rehomed. Please, if you or somebody you know is looking for a pet, why not get them to adopt instead. The furrizens here may not be of pedigree breed, but they deserve a loving home and family as well. And if you’re not sure if you’re ready for a pet, you can always choose to foster.. We love to have more people helping us to foster as this mean they will be more well taken care of and receive the care and attention they needed. With the shed being over-populated and us being short-handed, there’s only so much care and attention we can provide to the animals there.

Anyone know where can we rent or buy a piece of land for really really low price please do write to us. Or.. it would be an utter joy and delight for us if someone would lend/donate a small piece of land…please please.. We and the furrizens would be eternally grateful..

Ah Hah! …..

Can you see who he is?.

………….. its none other than our Jimmy White renamed

John John .

Mama could not catch up with him

He is so happy to see us.

Mama told John John that his patience for waiting for us to visit him pays.

Sorry John John we could not visit you as often as you wish .We are busy looking for good homes like yours for your other furrizens still in the shed.

Calling for volunteers

Hi all,

Currently our shelter is managing close to 100 dogs and puppies. Whilst we have Aunty Kiew and Uncle Wong doing a heroic job managing the shelter, and we’re also at the moment very lucky to have Richard who’s actually back to Msia for a holiday but after looking at how short-handed we are, committed his weekdays to helping Aunty Kiew and Uncle Wong at the shed. Not forgetting Mrs Lai whom also help out at the shed on weekday and keeping tab of the rehomed furrizen and help to cook massive amount of rice to feed the dogs.. in fact i believe her fridge are almost fully occupied with ingredients for the doggy food =) Lastly our dear Fan who is always on the lookout for potential adopter, doing house calls and also one of the bloggers for us =)

The rest of us who are working, we can only make time to help out on the weekend *sigh*

Therefore, we desperately need more volunteers who are able to really roll up their sleeves and help out in running the shelter. We need these volunteers especially on weekdays. ( I think Aunty Kiew and Uncle Wong deserver a break, don’t you =) )

Although the work is physical, the rewards are incalculable - the dogs will definitely appreciate it - you will know when they start treating

you like a star and follow you around trying to get your attention - definitely "satisfaction guaranteed"!!

Hahahaa… see what i mean when i said they will follow you like you’re a celebrity =)

Before you even step into the shed, you will receive an overwhelming welcome by the furrizens. They will huddle up together at the entrance and greet you noisily :D

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

and then they will escort you around the shed

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

And then when it’s time to say goodbye, they will send you off with lots of PAWS >_<

 

 

 

 

 

 

So if you are interested or know anyone who is interested in making a real difference to the lives of these dogs AND can spare 2-3 hours on weekdays - even

if it's a couple of weekdays a week - please please please.. write to us at missionshare5@gmail.com

Sweet November

*This post is dedicated to the best rescued dog ever – Mr. Sean Black*

The day we picked up Sean…

He was crossing a busy road when we saw him. He was wearing a long leash. I asked my boyfriend whether we could help this poor dog by removing his leash. So we quickly rushed home to get some dog kibbles to feed him. When I was trying to move closer to this black dog, oh my, have just  realized he is quite a big-boned dog. Surprisingly, he was friendly and playful. He came close and took the kibbles from my hand.

This is a big step.  When a stray / lost dog takes kibbles / food from my hand, indicates that the dog actually trust us. When he moved closer to us, I was trying to pat his back and neck. I was so nervous and afraid that he might bite me. I had bad experience with male dogs since I started the doggy rescue work. Male dogs in general are more aggressive than the females. Male dogs in the shelter tend to fight a lot. Even my 2 male dogs fought a lot when I just adopted them.

The big guy was so gentle and friendly. I decided to walk him around the neighbourhood and see whether he remember his way home. He was so excited and happily holding the leash in his mouth when I walk him. When I pat him on his back, I found out that he had gazillions of ticks and fleas. I mean gazillions!!!

The picture doesn’t justify the amount of ticks and fleas he had!!

I was wondering did the owner purposely abandon him or was he a lost dog? Looking at the number of ticks he had, we were very certain that this boy was treated poorly by his owner. We then decided to foster him for a night and bring him to do a blood test to check whether he was infected by tick fever. **Later we found out that he actually belongs to a gas shop owner. The children used to abuse him by kicking him or hitting him.**

 
The first night we foster him… He was puzzled why we left him alone in the kitchen…

 
We renamed him Sean Black as my bf’s good friend (Sean) is black.
We bathed him with Bayticol before sending him to the vet…

Happily hopping into my car &  off to the vet!

 
Never judge a book by its cover….
He looks ferocious but he is indeed very loyal and friendly

Initially, we couldn’t foster him as we have 3 dogs at home & the two male dogs will never get along with other males. So we decided to put him at the shelter while looking for adopter. Aunty Kiew was kind enough to take Sean in despite the shelter being over-populated with abandoned pups & dogs. Few weeks being in the shelter, he had really bad cough and running nose.

Shelter is never a good place for dogs as shelter is always too packed with dogs and pups, full of viruses and sickness. We as rescuers only house our rescued dogs in the shelter when we have no other choice. The vets are not willing to take in a dog which came from a shelter, with kennel cough (and suspected distemper), with ticks (suspected tick fever). So we housed him temporarily at a vacant house. We resorted to travel to the place twice a day to feed him and walk him.

A week after fostering him, Sean has recovered from his kennel cough. He has shiny coat & put on some weight. He was healthier and happier as compared to when I housed him in the dog shelter.

He waits for us to visit him everyday to feed him. walk him and spend some time to play with him.

He loves playing tug-a-war with me after the weekly shower

Guess what is he looking at?

He even has a pretty labrador girlfriend who stays next door! >_<

There are a number of callers asking for him. I have even rehomed him to Ipoh. However, the adopter has no patience with an adult dog. He wanted to return him just 2 days after adopting him. So a week after I sent him to Ipoh, I travelled to Ipoh to pick him up again.

More than 3 months fostering him….
This young chap, Ryan from Kuala Terengganu called and wanted to view Sean. They clicked right away. The next day Sean was off to Kuala Terangganu.

 
** Look at the sad girlfriend in the background! **

Sean decided to pack some tissue paper with him before departing.
I miss you Sean *sob sob*

Oh Sean! We surely miss you humongously! We hate to say byebye to you but we are happy that you found a good home. We are very certain that Sean will be a loyal watchdog and bring loads of Joy to Ryan’s family.
