An eventful afternoon..... driving home from Moron and by the old ruined house there was a dog running back and forth across the road, just as we drove past I saw a puppy at the side of the road.... so I made Dad pull over and went back to look, a lady was trying to get to the pup (she was parked infront of the ruined Venta Suarez) the mother dog would not let us close to the pup. Dad went home, as there was cold stuff for the freezer. The lady and I could not catch the dog, I managed t get the pup and put him into the old house and the mother followed.
The woman (Natalia) helps at the dog refuge in Marchena so she rang them and they agreed to take the dogs is we could catch them..... I rang Dad and asked him to bring the cat travelling boxes. He arrived with the boxes, luckily, he had not taken out the shopping from the car and there was a tin of cat food- We tried to catch the mother dog- she would not let us close to her. Eventually I grabbed at her and got her by the back of her neck and wrapped her in a blanket and we got her into the car.
We got to MArchena, she was so good in the car, not a problem at all. A man was there (in a factory unit) to meet us, by then the dog (we have called her Alana) was fine. The pup is albino, and we think completly blind, poor thing. She is a tubby thing. They said I was to think of a name, so as he was completely blind he is Alan!
I will go back to the refugio to help them, they have loads of gorgeous puppies and a few older dogs. There is a chihuahua type pup!

Awww poor things! Help at the refugio Pamela, but don't you think you have enough with two dogs and two cats? lol

I want to do something ´outside´ the home...... I am thinking it as fate.... or that I am blooming mad!! Probably the second! :lol:

Probably both but well done for rescuing them :D

I think it will be lovely for you to have 'something' outside of the home to do, and such a good cause too!
It will give you something different to talk to Jim about in the evenings. :) :)

What a lovely story, well done! :D
-
Sounds like a happy ending all round, Pamela :D

Mum dog was so good at protecting her baby, we just wonder how she got there as the pup was so big (very fat) there was no way the mum could have carried her in her mouth and the pup is blind we are sure, so no way she could really run fast behind mum.... I wonder if they were dumped?
I will take photos when I go back and post them here.

I dreamed about the pup last night, I wish we could keep him, but I know we can´t :( I will go there to help and then I can see him and all the others.

When we got Pip, there was a blind border collie for rescue, he was only about 12 weeks but we couldn't even consider him because they wouldn't let him go to a home with small children. We didn't see it as too much of a problem, he'd have Pip to play with and learn with but sometimes you just have to be sensible :(

I would have him like a shot, but with the pool it isn´t an option. there is a gate, and balastrauding (?), but our fat boy can squeeze through.
