ninahartland Posted June 25, 2012 Share Posted June 25, 2012 As topic says this pound is desperate for coats of all sizes. The dogs out there only have concrete floor or wire racks for a bed and its so cold at night Blankets and bedding will be no good (dont ask !!! ) but if the local ladies that have offered to help can put coats on the dogs, wash them when needed and generally keep an eye on whether they have them on or not at least it will go a long way to keeping these poor dogs warm. There will probably be another transport run in about 3/4 weeks but if we can get any coats sent up in meantime the dogs will love you for it ! Pm me for address............

Great idea Panto....I did see that in general and thought it was brilliant as they can be picked up for next to nothing at op shops. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest lavendergirl Posted July 3, 2012 Share Posted July 3, 2012 Hopefully the pound now has enough coats? I think it is good to put the call out directly for people to send items straight to where they are needed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
