Anyone who read yesterday’s blog will know that Omer and Maggie were due to leave the SPA today, and sure enough they did. This means that all the pups from the Simpsons litter are now happily homed, and best of all, none of them had to spend any time alone at the SPA.
Of course pups are all lovely, but each time a new litter arrives, our hearts sink. Not because we don’t adore puppies, who doesn’t?! But we know it means that our older pups and adult dogs risk having even longer to wait for a new home. We cannot impress on people enough the importance of sterilising your dogs. If the dog population continues to grow, so will the number of dogs in refuges. Plus the SPA is no place for pups, who need lots of love and socialisation, especially in the early months.
Of course sometimes puppies and other, older dogs are lucky enough to go into foster, and we will have news of one such dog very soon. Plus, of course, if you are still after a puppy but missed out on this litter, please don’t forget about little Neymar, who is waiting for a home at the SPA.
Tomorrow looks like being a busy day, and we hope that at least one of the planned visits results in an adoption!
