Arrival Story: We have only had George for nearly 9 years, he is 18 years old now. We got him from the R.S.P.C.A at Sombersby. He was there for over 8 months as there was a court case that was taken out by them on his former owner.
We dont know why his former owner hurt him. He had a machette put though the side of his face. He also has part of his tongue missing and no teeth, as he was on keept on a chain and chewing on it for so long worn them down to nothing.
We did not know what type of dog he would be, but he was and is the most gentlest and loving dog you could ask for.
At the time of getting him we had 3 other dogs and he was perfect with them. Also a grandaughter came into our life who is nearly 4 now and she would cuddle him and lay down with him and he would not move an inch even when she climb all over him. When we got him he was called George, it was not a name we would of picked but to us now he seems to look like one.....He really is not a good looking dog, that was another reason he was there so long, but his personality made up for it ten fold
Bio: These days he just sleeps and eats, and waddles around the house.... He has arthritis and not the best eye sight and nearly deaf. We found out 5 months ago he has cancer of the nose, but he is still eating and happy , so we just take one day at a time with him. We often say we would love his former owner to see him now and say to him......look this is a dog you tried to kill. At least we were able to love and give him the best life he could ever get

Being here at The Bridge is the next best place to be. I would much much much be with my Familt but this is not to be, for awhile...
I watch and hear what is going on with my family all the time, but yesterday was one of those days when I saw my Mums blood " boil "
See Mum has a real " soft spot " for the R.S.P.C.A, as that is where Daisy, Snoopy and I came from. Even Mums very first doggie when she was little girl came from there, she was a Kelpie......named Lassie..
My human sister Sally works at ourR.S.P.C.A. charity shop, and Mum was there having a chat with the presidant and a few other ladies.
WILL one of the ladies who is elderly and goes away for hoildays, has ALWAYS left her cat.... ( yes I know this is a doggie site but it concerns both ....) at the boarding facility at the RSPCA.
Will when she went to book in her cat in she was told how sorry they were BUT there was NO room.
ALL... YES ALL........ the boarding places were taken up with adult cats & kittens........ that were homeless and looking for new homes.......
WILL did I see my mums face turn red........
They said they have had an inflax of cats & kittens, and they have never had to use the boarding facility before for the homeless.
Why mum was SOOOOO very angry & upset, is WHY don't people get their animals sprayed.
There are so many cats & dogs that are not done .... this is so stupid.
She knows in her heart that some of the cats/kittens will get homes but there will be others that will not, thought no fault of their own.....will have to make a journey that would be before they should be making one........
Around where we live we have a Cat Care organization that helps with desexing as will as other organization that sometimes you dont even need to pay..... just when you have some money or give a donation to their animal charity shop....... (This is for the both cats & dogs)....
Maybe one day people might get the idea it is not " lovely " to have JUST ONE LITTER.
She knows it wont happen ....but she thinks the greatest news would be that, even if ONE shelter had to closed it doors not becauce they had TOOOOO many animals .....that they had NO animals that needed a second chance. That would be so wonderful.........but I am sure that would never happen in her life time....BUT it would be wonderful ! ! ! ! !
One of the things I always need to know was
" WHY ",
Why he had a machete put though his face.
We asked it was always only enough information to just to made me look further to find an answer.
When I wrote in George's diary on the day he had enough of this life and need to go to a place that would make him so much better.....I wrote that I need closure .....at the time I thought I would never have it but ....... now I have it........
When you dont want something any more you try to find a solution..
Will I can say this was the most horrible soultion.
George had the machete put thought his face because........
for no other reason than........
" He was not wanted any more "
The good thing that came out of it, he escaped from this " person " and was found and given a second chance....to live a full life.
The love he returned to his family was so great it was unbelieveable as for what he had gone though.....That love was returned to him with all the passion & love we could give him.
He was never treated " different " to the other " furs " of the family, they were , and are all equal......if there was a time that one had "special needs" then that would be address, but all of them are equal in our eyes......
I think that is what makes a " happy " household when you have many legs running around...
I was given a name once just after we got George, I just love it .....
Mother of Many Paws...
It just fits so will........
My sweet Angel, there is not a day that goes by that a tear does not fall , but now I feel they will not be so often.
A few days ago my mum saw a new gift on my page.
A lovely green emerald
This one was from a doggie that put their name as
" Anonymous "
Will mum was trying to think who would do it
arrr yes it was.........
no.. it was from ........
no... not that doggie ........
it was from ........
In the end mum really could not work who this wonderful person might be....
All we can say....Mum & me is a big
Thank you, you are so kind
This gift and all the gifts that I have receive are just thoughtful and I just love them all.......
