Last night DRC had a Christmas fundraiser and as all the funds will make their way to the SPA, I think it is okay to share the news with SPA supporters too! Karen and “Team Balestide” hosted 50 guests, all of whom enjoyed an evening of food, dancing and merriment. Of course there was a raffle and we had a guest appearance from Leika, who has been to the poodle parlour and is all white and fluffy!
Thanks so much to Karen and her team. We all had a lovely evening whilst raising money for an excellent cause. It was lovely to spend time away from the SPA but in the company of so many like-minded people!
At the SPA today, yesterday’s arrival, Slack, was reclaimed. Her owner was not too happy, as apparently the dog was outside her own house and she did not want to spend the money getting the dog identified so close to Christmas. Well, there are two solutions to this problem. One, get your dog identified beforehand (identification is obligatory, after all). Or two, do not leave your dog to roam all day. Oh, and of course there is number three; leave your dog at the SPA where she will be sterilised and not have unwanted litter after unwanted litter (which is the inevitable fate of a female who is left to stray). Hey ho.
We had an adoption too, which is always good news. Lovely Balou left with a family who has three children and two cats! Balou was abandoned at the end of September, so he has not had too long to wait compared to some other dogs, but I am sure he agrees that it was quite long enough!
We are open tomorrow afternoon, so why not come along and join us for a walk or maybe meet the dog or cat of your dreams.There will be some cakes for sale and gifts for the dog or cat in your life, too. And of course don’t forget that there is the market at Cavanac too!
Oh, and finally, I thought you would like to see this photo of Bowie, who has just set his paws on English soil for the first time. He has been an angel to travel with, sleeping most of the way. He missed his one and only chance to see Paris; maybe he is just waiting to get into his kilt!
Leika has been to the poodle parlour!
Balou – ADOPTED
Bowie – well on his way
We are open tomorrow from 14-17H00
