Squidgy Posted October 2, 2012 Share Posted October 2, 2012 (edited) I was just searching through the hawkesbury pound list and there is a beautiful young cavalier female in there only 1.5years old. Does anyone think there is a rescue that would take her? I know this pound doesnt desex before sale I would hate to see her becoming a "cavoodle" breeding machine... $230 is a bargain mill dog...it breaks my heart as I have read horror stories about people getting their farm dogs from shelters for cheap like this. I hope I do not get in trouble for this thread it is just a major concern to me http://www.hawkesbury.nsw.gov.au/services/animal-shelter/animal-shelter-gallery?sq_content_src=%2BdXJsPWh0dHAlM0ElMkYlMkZjb3VuY2lsLmhhd2tlc2J1cnkubnN3Lmdvdi5hdSUyRmFuaW1hbHNoZWx0ZXIlMkZpbmRleC5waHAlM0ZhbGJ1bSUzRGRvZ3MlMjZpbWFnZSUzRFBDQy03MjcuanBnJmFsbD0x Edited October 2, 2012 by thundercat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gretel Posted October 2, 2012 Share Posted October 2, 2012 I do know there is a Cavalier person who works at Hawkesbury pound so she will have her eye on her I'm sure :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nic.B Posted October 2, 2012 Share Posted October 2, 2012 She will be safe and sound Thundercat :) Cavies always find great new homes or rescue. HP is now desexing which is great news. Any adopted dog is desexed, rescue sign an agreement to ensure all dogs are desexed prior to rehome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loving my Oldies Posted October 2, 2012 Share Posted October 2, 2012 (edited) I popped into this thread knowing that the Poster would be given assurances that a Cavalier is totally safe. Edited because apparently Hawkesbury isn't desexing. Edited October 3, 2012 by Danny's Darling Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
julesluvscavs Posted October 2, 2012 Share Posted October 2, 2012 glad to hear they desex now then :) I was worried when I first read the first post. Im sure she will be find a new forever home quickly, they usually do! She's lovely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Squidgy Posted October 2, 2012 Author Share Posted October 2, 2012 What a relief :D and wow they desex now?? YAY!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Squidgy Posted October 3, 2012 Author Share Posted October 3, 2012 I just rang hawkesbury to see what procedures they take to find good homes, they told me they do not desex the dogs at all...... it is pretty much the first person to put their name down and come in with the cash. not so much in those words I just said it briefly. The cav girl will go undesexed lifetime registered , microchipped etc but not desexed She will most probly get a save with a rescue but they still need to change their policies that is disgusting that anyone can walk in with a sob story and walk out with a new puppy farm dog Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Squidgy Posted October 3, 2012 Author Share Posted October 3, 2012 (edited) They do not desex them prior to leaving. Hence why some animals are only $37.......and I posted this in the rescue thread and the people who put up the hawkesbury notices have pretty much confirmed that they do not desex, people are now trying to raise money to get her out of there and into rescue Edited October 3, 2012 by thundercat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
