Today the refuge was shut to the public as it was international workers’ day, so what better way to celebrate than by not working? Of course cleaning and feeding took place as usual but the dogs spent the afternoon asleep in some long-awaited sunshine.
This lack of activity gives me the chance to tell you about another of yesterday’s arrivals.
Meet Benson, everyone. He is a Coton de Tulear who was born in September 2010. His owner has been hospitalised, and Benson was left alone without food and water for 3 days until someone came to rescue him and bring him to us. Luckily for Benson, two of our lovely volunteers took him home to feed him up, so he is being well looked after while he is recovering from his ordeal.
Benson is a tiny dog. Okay, he is underweight right now, but he is never going to be much of a guard dog. Great as a lap warmer, though!
Benson is fine with other dogs and is house-trained. The perfect dog, if you don’t mind walking a ball of fluff on the end of a piece of string! He is likely to find a home very quickly, so if you are interested don’t hesitate to get in touch, either via our Facebook page www.facebook.com/SPA.CARCASSONNE or via the contacts page on my website http://www.dogrescuecarcassonne.co.uk/
Bless him, he looks very happy to have a safe place to rest his head. What an ordeal for him so fingers crossed that he will soon find someone to love him.
I am sure someone will have him very quickly 🙂
