some young professional people are thinking about a

as you avoid all the chewing and barking habits. Look

Of course some of the dogs are very sick when they
come in and indeed become palliative care doggies.
Gorgeous Star is one of these. Read her story P19. We
give her the best care we can but that is not like a family

ANGELIQUE AND BERT

PLEASE STOP AND http://youtu.be/RdKkU9wZDkE
READ THIS.

Dear Readers,

I have been sitting here trying to find the right words
to catch your attention to encourage you to adopt
Bert and Angelique..But what can I say?

That Bert and Angelique need a family,
please adopt them and give them what they

have waited for and deserve so much.

That Bert, dear old sweetie, is getting older and needs
a home now so he can have a few happy years with a
family who cares for him. Bert loves a cuddle and his big
brown eyes shine with love given extra attention. He
deserves his own family and to be special.

That Angelique, sensitive, gentle and so petite, has not
been well recently and although she has now recovered
she would love a bit of spoiling and tender care. She has
a bright, happy personality and is very affectionate.

What can I say that would encourage you to adopt Do you have cuddles to spare?
this loveable pair of very bonded doggies?
Give them a chance.
If I could only tell you how much they deserve their story
to have a happy ending. That they love and are so loving. Bert and Angelique are waiting…
If they had been adopted separately both would now be
in their forever homes, but their hearts would be broken... THEY ARE WAITING
FOR YOU!
BERT AND ANGELIQUE…
ANGELIQUE AND BERT If you are interested but not in the position adopt have
you ever thought about becoming a foster carer?
They are such a unique bonded pair yet it is this very For more details call Monika on 9486-3133

DOGGIERESCUE UNLEASHED AND DANGEROUS

Compiled by Roland Briefrel

“ For over thirty years I have campaigned in opposition to the live animal
export trade. My attitude is always quite simple: the moment the animals
leave our shores, we have no meaningful control over what happens to
them and how they are treated. Unfortunately, when it comes to our
Federal politicians, the ones who can actually change things, my
concerns have always fallen on deaf ears. A few have tried to intervene,
but then the animals exposed to this trade do not vote.” Roland

THE CRUEL LIVE EXPORT TRADE

Tens of thousands of sheep and around 1,000 cattle are reported to die each year on live export
ships (though these figures are 'self-reported' by the Master of the vessel and are in reality likely
to be higher). http://www.daff.gov.au/animal-plant-health/welfare/export-trade/mortalities

In the face of the cruelty above, there is always a kernel of hope, as with
Salvadore the dairy calf saved from slaughter, whose story is told below:

When he was very little,
Salvador's fate was grim. He
was born on a Chilean dairy farm,
where his mother was a dairy cow.
Because he would never produce
milk, he was set to be slaughtered
for 'veal'. Thankfully, Salvador's
luck changed. He was rescued
from the tiny crate in which he
had been kept — sick and alone —
and now lives with his loving
adopted family at Santuario
Igualdad Interespecie. And he
loves showing his affection for his
rescuers in the most adorable way.

WISHING ON A STAR!

This is a story of a very special little girl who deserves a ton of spoiling...

Star, a gorgeous Shih Tzu x, was left http://youtu.be/7C36pAoeStI
at a pound at 13 years of age.

When she came to DoggieRescue she
did not leave our vet clinic for many
weeks. Star came with purulent
infected ears and large mammary
tumours. She was very accepting of
staying in a clinic environment and she
was a favourite amongst the staff.

We did biopsies on the mammary
tumours and the histopathology
revealed she has an aggressive
mammary adenocarcinoma with
evidence of local infiltration. The vets
recommendation is to remove any
lumps found and it may be necessary
to consider a full mammary strip. That
is a very big ordeal for a 13yo girl! We
have just had her desexed and are
letting her recover before we plan the
next stages.

Star is such a sweet natured gentle girl
who does not act as if anything was
wrong with her. She is affectionate
with people and has a loving nature.
She is very social with other dogs and
calm around cats. She copes being left
alone for longer periods of time.

Sponsor:“In loving memory of our Elle!” from Bill & Joan Collins

CAN YOU MAKE STAR’S FINAL DAYS FULL OF LOVE?

We are looking for a compassionate person who wants to make Star’s last years, the best ones of her life and
to let her enjoy all the things she has never experienced before. She so deserves it! Please help us to give Star the
best medical treatment available and share this link so we can make it possible for her to experience the joy of a
loving family in her final days and to know what it feels like to be spoilt and to be special to someone.

The little 7 year old Terrier was abandoned by his previous family. They dumped him with no thoughts of his welfare
or even knowing that he would survive death row in a pound. He was just one of the many 1,000’s of pets whose life
became a lottery but he was lucky to be rescued by Doggie Rescue. Now called ‘PERCY’ he waited patiently to
meet a new family and in June he was adopted by Jacky & Bec. The little unwanted dog who had come to Doggie
Rescue so thin and scared is now happy and content, with a tail that never stops wagging. He has COME HOME…

“ Percy has really come out of his shell!
During the day time he likes to sleep
next to us wrapped in a blanket burrito
while we watch TV. He says hello by
jumping joyfully and rolling on his back
for a belly rub. He's the cleverest dog
I've ever met and mastered sit and wait

him an opportunity to find the family to
where he truly belonged.” Jacky Tang

IF ONLY WE COULD
CLONE THEM...

Reggie, Marshall, Moonlight & Pavlov are recent Chris & Wendy We are failed
adoptees by their loving foster parents— families with Reggie foster carers &
who have taken these needy dogs into their homes
proud of it!
to care for them temporarily until a permanent
home could be found and lost their hearts! Is there

any better way to adopt a new best friend?

Fostering a dog gives a lost, often frightened
dog, many of whom are stressed in a busy kennel
environment, time to let their true natures shine
through. The dogs who come from the pound are
assessed only from what we can see from their
reaction with other dogs/Kennel Hands/Volunteers
and the noise and busy environment of a kennel.
For the timid, shy dogs, the frail elderly dogs or
the nervous and somewhat fearful dogs, what you
see is not always the real nature of the dog. That
is where foster care is so important—being in a
loving home environment makes the dog feel safe,
relaxed and begin to trust. The difference in the
dog is sometimes absolutely amazing…..

Also by living in a foster home we learn so much
more about the dog’s individual personality—
whether they are housetrained, how they adapt
with children and other dogs ( and even cats and other small animals ) on a day to day basis. We learn their likes/
dislikes and what sort of home would suit their unique personalities. And yes, along the way, many foster parents
find that the dog is so much a part of their family that they can never part with them!

To all the failed foster parents out there, give yourselves a pat on the back and your new family member
a really big hug. At DoggieRescue we simply cannot find enough of VERY special people like YOU!!!!

We first fostered Reggie mid-April. The DR website and Monika
were super helpful in matching Reggie with us (apartment &
busy, full time work lifestyle) and he has definitely changed our
lives for the better. In less than 3 weeks (and someone else
querying about adopting him) we decided we loved him so much
we couldn't bear to let him go! Reggie has such a beautiful
affectionate nature and is energetic despite being an old boy. He
loves his walks and being the official mascot of Mum's hockey
team. All it takes is a little love, care and patience and your efforts
will be rewarded ten fold. If you have the time, space and means
to foster or adopt a rescue dog, we wholeheartedly recommend
it - you will not regret it. Reggie's parents - Chris and Wendy

Foster Care is the only time where a FAILURE is a truly wonderful SUCCESS

AUGUST 2015 DOGGIERESCUE.COM MAGAZINE 25

Foster carers are special, BIG hearted people who give not only their HOME but their TIME, LOVE and
PATIENCE to a dog who has lost everything in the world that is familiar. Elderly dogs seem to grow a
little younger, walk a little straighter, live a little longer, in the security and comfort that caring brings.

WHERE AM I NOW?

GOTCHA DAY 21ST JUNE 2014

HEINZ O’SHEA

“ I used to be a driver for DoggieRescue and it was
me who collected Heinz from the pound in January
2013. He was so scared he was rigid with fear and

had to be carried, he would not move.” Dale

Hello Readers,

To continue Heinz’s story...Over the following weeks,
with excellent care from the kennel hands, he came out
of his shell, but when Heinz was put in with other dogs
he couldn't get on with them and had to be penned on
his own. He was a favorite with everyone, I think they felt
sorry for him and gave him extra attention. The kennel
hands tried on numerous occasions to get him to go for
walks but he would not go. After many attempts I was
able to take him out but always had to carry him up the
drive and out onto the road where he would take a few
steps and then belly flop, and that was that. Months later
we finally made it up the hill — a real mile stone!

I was continually told by the girls at DoggieRescue that
I would have to adopt Heinz but at the time I had an old
sick dog (ex DR doggie Toby) and Heinz would have
been too much for him. After Toby passed it was pretty
much a foregone conclusion that I would take Heinz and
so in June 2014 he came home with me.

From day one he got on very well with our other little guy
(ex DR dog Brown Bear, a 12yr Mini Foxy x). They play
and wrestle until Bear has had enough and then he tells
Heinz off with a growl and Heinz knows to back off. He
still didn't want to walk around the streets in Sydney but
in September we moved to a Lifestyle Estate on a golf
course in the Hunter where the dogs are allowed to walk
on the course and Heinz hasn't looked back. He charges
off and loves to run but also walks well on his lead.

“ Heinz is super affectionate and wants to be near you all Heinz is a totally different dog these days. His tail was
the time. Adopting him was the best thing we did and we always down between his legs but now its up all the time.
love him to bits. He is a special part of our family. ” Dale He’s very friendly towards everyone he meets on his
walks and wants them to pat him. He's a big sook, thinks
he's a lap dog and likes nothing better than lying on top
of me on the lounge with his head tucked into my neck.

ANOTHER HAPPY ENDING STORY...

volunteering for cat rescues for years, starting at Peggy Brown's (Manly Warringah Pittwater

Kittycat-tidbit:cat talks – are you really listening?

MEOOOOW…
FEED ME!

Imp.3089: PEANUT
1-2yrs Tabby/Torti Female

Do you recognise your cat’s different vocalisations and do you notice if your cat does repeat the
same string of “meows” for certain needs?

How many different forms (pitch, cat-words/vowels in patterns, and intensity) do you notice?

And to whom is it directed?

Most people will be familiar with a cat’s standard meows/calls to humans for welcoming, seeking attention or food,
growls of discouragement etc. There is a range of other possible vocalisations, and we still have lots to learn,
though the most famous study which still holds true was by Mildred Moelk in the 1940s. With my own and friends’
cats I have noticed the following:

• The different greetings to me on arriving home – one of my cats has a convoluted 7 vowel/word
sentence when I have been late home from work or a long social engagement, I am guessing this
includes being reprimanded by her ;)

• The breath type of vocalisation rather than a meow-call, the cat pushing its breath through the mouth –
I am sure this is one of my cat’s ways of trying to get as close as possible to human communication, as
it can also meow when it chooses, and has been noticed by family and neighbours

• Short warning meows/calls to other cats – usually as in “get out of my way, coming through!” and
also a different call distinctly a warning when something dangerous is approaching – observed both
in female and male cats to our “tribe”

• Short and quiet, one or two vowel meows to birds – I have noticed several cats performing this
funny little welcoming but also warning to birds

• Baby-like-cries by one of my cats when he is about to be fed – he was rescued from a shelter/pound
so times must have been tough for him and still 2 years later he is so excited yet still anxious about
being fed
What have you heard that has been repeated by your cat?
