THESE EASTER
SURPRISES WON'T INCREASE THE WAIST LINE
We say a big
welcome to Lewis, Chump, and Sally the
greyhounds and Wilf an unwanted 9 year
old lurcher.
Alison hit the high
seas last week and true to form did not
come back empty handed, Lewis the 5 year
old blue and white greyhound and poor old
Wilf hitched a lift back.

Lewis stretches his
legs and Wilf meets his new owner - face
look familiar yep it's Donna just
rounding up her numbers !!!!!
Mal had been
waiting all week for his trip to fetch
Chump and Sally and having been cancelled
on Wednesday thankfully he was able to
get away on Saturday and was back just
when the really heavy rain started.
Chump, a white and
black 2 year old, has come to live with
Emily, Ross and their family at St.
Lawrence.

upon his arrival at Jersey airport
A while ago we did
a special appeal for a 10 year old bitch
called Sally whose owner was very ill and
had to go into hospice. Coupled with our
feature 'oldies' Trevor got in touch and
wanted to take little Sally on. We are so
thrilled that Sally now becomes the third
oldie to be homed in Jersey this year.

boarding the plane to start her new life
in Jersey
Our thanks to Sue
for bringing both dogs to the airport,
also lovely to see you Ian. It goes
without saying that Chris came up trumps,
or is that Chumps, for us once again.
SINCE WRITING THIS
ARTICLE WE ARE DEVASTATED TO TELL YOU
THAT ON MONDAY APRIL 5TH JUST FOUR DAYS
AFTER HIS ARRIVAL DONNA HAD TO LET WILF
GO. SHE HAD DISCOVERED A LUMP ON HIS NOSE
ON FRIDAY AND THE DIAGNOSIS WAS A
MALIGNANT TUMOUR WHICH HAD PUSHED ITS WAY
THROUGH THE BONE. IT ALSO LOOKED LIKE
THERE MAY HAVE BEEN SECONDARY TUMOURS.
THIS WAS AS A RESULT OF TOTAL NEGLECT,
THIS POOR BOY HAD WORKED ALL HIS LIFE AND
LIVED OUTSIDE. IT WAS OBVIOUS THAT NO
CARE WHATSOEVER HAD BEEN TAKEN TO ENSURE
HE WAS HEALTHY. DONNA PROMISED HIM HE
WOULD SEE THE BEACH SO BEFORE HE LEFT US
HE HAD THAT LUXURY. OUR HEARTS GO OUT TO
DONNA, BUT OUR THANKS THAT SHE GAVE HIM
FOUR HAPPY DAYS WHERE HE WAS WARM, HAD A
FULL BELLY AND ABOVE ALL WAS LOVED.
GOD BLESS YOU WILF

Donna with Wilf
WE DON'T ALWAYS
HAVE HAPPY ENDINGS IN WHAT WE DO BUT WE
HAVE TO KEEP TRYING
