Leema Posted April 26, 2011 Share Posted April 26, 2011 Steve, I messaged your last night. I can take one adult dog and can drive anywhere within Adelaide metro and south country (Victor Harbor/Yankalilla) for transport. I messaged you my number as I don't want to put it publicly on DOL - however you can contact at [email protected] or, if you visit http://leemakennels.com/contact.shtml my number is on there. I can also store one unregistered car for a month or two if it can be transported here. I am in Happy Valley Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curlybert Posted April 26, 2011 Share Posted April 26, 2011 2 fed and happy elkies curled up in Piper's borrowed crate, sound asleep.MANY thanks to KHM for picking them up for me, and to Piper for the crate loan! This is great news! Do hope all the pickups/deliveries and other activities are going smoothly today. It's a fabulous effort by so many DOLers - good on you all, and Steve for your coordination efforts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ker Posted April 26, 2011 Share Posted April 26, 2011 I also just want to thank Julie/Steve for her massive coordination efforts. This hasn't been easy (and it's still going on) and I don't think anyone realises what a huge job this is. However, things are well on their way to being sorted.

cassie Posted April 27, 2011 Share Posted April 27, 2011 Are there anymore dogs or pups that need fostering? If so please PM me or post in here, I will check back regularly. Glad to hear all is going well so far Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve Posted April 27, 2011 Author Share Posted April 27, 2011 O.K. Within reason this is where we are at. All of the dogs had to be removed by 9.30 this morning so Liberty rescue and Sharpei Rescue P/L have simply grabbed them and gotten them out and we will now have to move them around from their premises etc. There are some un expected challenges specifically with the dogs but we will sort it out. We have been able to negotiate another week to get the furniture and cars out - at a considerable cost.We will need a car trailer with a hoist, a storage location, a furniture removalist. We have one hero legal person who has agreed to help us pro bono but we will need to help Vic with lodgement expenses and fees to get it sorted. Thats before we start looking at vetting, feeding , transport etc for the dogs. So Im now asking for anyone who is in a position to make a donation to help us out with this to consider giving us a hand as pacers is a small charity and we dont have large stashes of cash to draw on. Right now we need around $5000 to get done what is needed short term to do what is needed. So perhaps if 100 people could donate $50 each to help cover this - that would be awesome. Stay tuned because Ill start to say when for volunteers for packing, moving cars etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kajtek Posted April 27, 2011 Share Posted April 27, 2011 (edited) All done Julie :-) (I've thinking when pay comes in but it seemed more urgent now.) Thank you to all wonderful helpers Edited April 27, 2011 by HonBun Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
casowner Posted April 27, 2011 Share Posted April 27, 2011 I have a train carriage that can be used for storage but we are at Inglewood (near Modbury), we are not back until late Saturday night and due to heaps of commitments can not help move anything but if the stuff can be brought up after this I am happy for it to be put in the carriage. We have a 10x5 cage trailer and a car trailer that may be able to be borrowed when we return, however I haven't asked my partner about those yet unless they are needed as they are both new and are his.

Guest DBT Posted April 27, 2011 Share Posted April 27, 2011 Hi all, we now have 4 Elkhounds washed & settled into the kennels. I am putting out the call now as i have to have at least TWO relocated to more permanent care by the end of FRIDAY 29th. All four would be great, but at least two. I can be contacted on 0488 669 992 or 08 8569 2492 and am located at Mannum. I can possibly help with transport. As we are a rescue that takes genuine time up poundies, our kennels are needed again for pound dogs asap Thankyou Tammy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

casowner Posted April 27, 2011 Share Posted April 27, 2011 The cars can be taken up too but will not have cover (you can put tarps on), the location is at our new house site but we live next door. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cassie Posted April 27, 2011 Share Posted April 27, 2011 Do we know how long the dogs will need fostering for? I can possibly take one short term, but if at all possible would like an indication of how long it will be, I am so sorry if this sounds rude I am not meaning to be....

piper Posted April 27, 2011 Share Posted April 27, 2011 2 fed and happy elkies curled up in Piper's borrowed crate, sound asleep.MANY thanks to KHM for picking them up for me, and to Piper for the crate loan! You are more than welcome!! It seems the least I can do. With a pregnant dog, I can't take a dog on, I don't have many spare dollars and with work donation of time is not easy. So giving the use of a crate is nothing really compared to what others are doing. I would love to do more to help if I could. Awesome effort everyone involved!!

Shelby Posted April 27, 2011 Share Posted April 27, 2011 Great effort everyone Sorry I am not closer to help out but have made a donation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leema Posted April 27, 2011 Share Posted April 27, 2011 I believe that all dogs are in a foster situation at the moment (i.e. there is no dogs at risk of being 'taken away' by the council or other groups). Some dogs, like those being held by DBT, are in temporary care searching for more long-term care. I have an elkhound here, doing well, very tolerant of the terrier chaos, and very happy to be having a nap in her crate at the moment. A lovely temperament. I went for the short drive with Miss Squish and the other elkies we picked up were similarly lovely, as well. Lovely dogs all around and hopefully a more permanent solution can be found for all of them. Meanwhile, they're safe and sound. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jsk Posted April 27, 2011 Share Posted April 27, 2011 Wish I was coser to help with fostering. I love Elkies, and would love to get one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sayly Posted April 27, 2011 Share Posted April 27, 2011 My offer of transport still stands. Happy to drive to Mannum or Strath/Victor way too. Sounds desperate so I can donate a little now but will put more in with my next pay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
