so many inconsistencies , you wonder if they are as good as they make out

I have just been informed that the DHOT has been swamped with donations of food and money. And now in the space of a week the Shelter has enough food to keep them going for 12months, so exellent news! Congratulations to all who donated! 3 cheers to YOU! Cheers Hogz

I give up! Whatever! Hogz A correct direct quote you saw with your own eyes or a correct direct quote that you heard from someone else? (And this is being generous and assuming the media have it correct to start with- after all, they do have a reputation of over-exaggeration and obscenely poor fact checking ;) )

That is a correct direct quote from the local news on Tasmanian TV. Purhaps you need to complain to them when you get your facts straight? Getting back to reality.....There HAS been quite a few donations made, including 200kgs of dry food from the Tuckerbox dogfood company so thankyou to them and all others who have donated. For those who have emailed me asking, no I dont have any ties with the shelter, just a dog lover from Queensland trying to help. and those emails of support....support the shelter, Im tefflon coated . Cheers Hogz "I questioned it because it didn't sound correct. As far as I've been able to find out, DHT never said they'd run out by Friday and that part was entirely incorrect. I think DHT do awesome work and I'm always happy to help them, I just think people need to check facts before posting appeals. If anything, statements like "The Dogs Home will run out of food on X day" calls into question their management skills and even the welfare of the animals in their care by suggesting those animals will shortly starve without immediate intervention by the public "

Bored were we Clyde??? Laying the blame for the shelters struggles on them??? Not possible, they donate everytime they go into wollies. and the bins there are very full. The National News says they are in desperate need of food, (but that MUST be a publicity stunt....H's A.) but Aztec Gold doesnt know about it so feels the need to take the attention away from the original heart felt request and turn it around to make it all about them. Oh , and then u turn up. Its this simple, if you dont want to help, dont!

dogshomesoftas.com.au then click Dogs for adoption, then donate by paypal. Cheers Hogz

Then I wonder why it takes someone from Queensland to try to raise funds for a shelter in Tasmania. However after reading these posts I no longer wonder... For any one else that may care about about these dogs, I will post the link to the shelter shortly, it also has Paypal if others wish to help them out. Please add "Food Donation" to the deposit . Cheers Hogz

Sorry, I thought it was more important to obtain some donations top feed these dogs than to justify the need for the funds by a welfare shelter that relies on public support. I think your sarcasm is in poor taste personally. Hogz I found this post on their site http://dogshomesoftas.com.au/2011/07/yum-yum-food-in-my-tum/ but nothing about them running out of food by Friday. A bit of drama makes a story more interesting, I suppose. The "dogs will starve on Friday" angle certainly demands a bit more attention than the official "We're running quite short".

I believe it was all over YOUR news last night. Hogz

It has come to my attention that the Dogs Home Of Tasmania is extremly strapped for funds to feed the dogs they have that need rehoming. I am trying to get hold of their address and or an account number, I ask that everyone thinks about making a small donation to help purchase food for these poor dogs. I believe that the food supply will last till THIS FRIDAY!!!! I know everyone is doing it hard atm but would you be able to spare ONE DOLLAR (or more...) I figure if eveyone puts in a dollar we will be able to help these poor dogs through winter. This is a small organisation that does not have the resorces of the RSPCA ,but do try the best they can with what they have. If I can get hold of their details I will post them here. Cheers Hogz (QLD)

You know me.....always starting something.......LOL Cheers Hogz

Buggar! didnt think of that.... Hogz

Whos off to Rosewood on Friday?? Hogz.

Hi Ari.g There will be pics posted on the QBC website. Cheers Hogz PS. Boxers Birthday will be next on the 26 of Feb.

What a great day! thanks to all who turned up, it was GREAT to see so many Boxers in one place wasnt it? and not one fight all morning which is pretty good with so many dogs off leash in one spot. Just goes to show how well socialised the Boxer is. Thanks to those that helped out also. Glad we got off the island when we did...I couldnt believe the traffic heading over there! Cheers and thanks for your company. Hogz
