Message from MrsB - Posters required!

Dear Blog Folks, I am involved in a small fund raiser on Sunday, 10th May, some of the profits from which will be going to Wiccaweys: http://www.wiccaweys.com/forum/index.php?topic=9036.0 What I would like to do is put up a display on the day showing off as many Wiccaweys dogs as possible ……… and for that I need your help. If people could put together a colourful one page A4 spread about their Wiccaweys dog(s) – I don’t mind whether it’s all photographs, or photographs and text, just so long as I can put together a great show of what Wiccaweys has achieved for so many dogs. If you would like to join in, please send me an e-mail to: margaret_botterill@hotmail.com with your poster attached – go on, you know you want to brag about your Wiccaweys dog. Please can you make sure that somewhere, on your poster, your dog’s name(s) is stylishly and visibly displayed too. I will not have time (nor artistic ability) to put together anyone else’s posters myself, so please be aware that anything you send to me will be printed out and used as it is. I will need all posters to be with my by Friday evening, 8th May as I will be spending the whole of the Saturday hammering my cooker producing lunch for the event. Thanks for helping. MrsB

Why?

This dear old lady is Edna. She was in a northern pound and Super-Bernie bought her down to us with the recent RDR dogs. Edna is a more mature lady, with the sweetest nature. So why has she obviously been starved? I whisked her straight to the vets on arrival because I was seriously worried about her. She weighed just over 11kg, and was dehydrated. Her back end is wobberly due to lack of muscle and general weakness due to lack of food. Her skin was hanging on a bag of bones. I could put my hands around her waist and link my fingers. I cried when I saw her.
But Edna is a trooper - she has the Wiccs Oldie Spirit in her. She knows what she wants and she wants to live!! She has made herself very at home. Paul looked at me this morning and said, "do you think our oldie has found us again??" We look at her and we see in her face all those proud old collies that have gone before her, the ones that found us in their later years.... Flossie, Brynn, Brigg and all the others..... I wonder.....

Pete / Paddy is home!!

Paddy is home safe and sound!!!

URGENT - LOST WICCAWEYS DOG - PETE IS MISSING - PETERBOROUGH, PE4

Pete, now called Paddy (as in Pete & Bingo) went missing at about 5pm this evening from Cuckoo's Hollow, MULTIMAP LOCATION LINK , in Werrington, between Welbourne and Lakeside, off Fulbridge Road in Peterborough. Pete/Paddy is a short coated black and white collie. He is neutered and microchipped to Wiccaweys.
His family are still out searching, and his dad is going out now to lay scent trails around the area Paddy went missing from after talking to us. If Paddy isn't found tonight, we suspect he will hole himself up for the night. We have advised they are at the area he disappeared from at dawn with very smelly food and Bingo to see if Paddy shows himself. If Paddy is still missing in the morning, we would all appreciate any help with the search from local folks. Paddy's dad Pete Jordon can be contacted on: 01733 571134 / 07742 592490 at anytime if you can help. Our number is: 07905 203254. Come home Paddy.

Reporting in

Mischa & Pups are doing well, thanks to all that are asking about them. More pics to follow soon, when we have time to breath. Other than that, I'm sick of it. Sick of idiots, sick of selfish people, sick of timewasters, sick of impatience and sick of life. Sick, sick, SICK!!!!! Lots of folks with terrible worries at the moment, especially amongst our volunteers and adopters, with poorly dogs and the threat of redunancies hanging over families heads. A sad and scarey time for all.

Whats been keeping us busy?

All these!!! Mischa was keeping secrets from everyone! Nine of them to be exact!!
