Fao Veebird Re Barking Dog

[linedancer3]

I have just read your story about that poor dog and felt I had to contact you. I work as a volunteer for my local RSPCA branch and hear stories like this all the time. You need to report this to the RSPCA cruelty line ASAP. That is no life for a dog, its disgraceful. The number to ring is 0300 1234 999. It is a very busy line so please keep trying. If you dont like doing this get someone to do it for you! I will if necessary! Hope this is useful, I know its a difficult situation but that dog needs help!

I was going to ring the RSPCA this morning linedancer but the owner of the dog spoke to me first thing. He has said I can walk the dog anytime so I am going to take it from there for the moment. She will get at least an hour running free in the fields and this way I can keep a close eye on things. He maintains she is 'not on her own'. Don't think the dog knows that! If they go away and leave her again or if she is still in this shed come cold weather I will have to act and I will. Thanks for the inside info.

So pleased Veebird. Would they let you have the dog at your home whilst they are out. It might be a compromise? See how the walks go and then perhaps you could suggest it.

Thank you Lofty Lottie. I have had the dog in my garden but I do have two cats so they have to be inside. Although it was raining today she had a really good run and thoroughly enjoyed it. It was great to see her and I feel much happier. Things can only get better for her I will see to it. There are still some things need doing such as her run needs cleaning every day but I will do that now. So thanks everybody, I've been in a bit of a state this week!

Glad you've managed to sort something out which makes you feel a bit better about it! See how it goes till the bad weather . Hope it all works out well but help is out there if you need it.
