ash1 Posted September 13, 2013 Share Posted September 13, 2013 If she needs a spot and can hitch a lift to goulburn she can spend her retirement with us. Didn't see your post when I was typing, you are obviously much closer, if it doesn't pan out, perhaps I could look at being backup? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Are You Serious Jo Posted September 13, 2013 Share Posted September 13, 2013 She probably has some molars, most of the time when people say they have no teeth they mean incisors. I really hope she finds the right home for the rest of her days, it's heartbreaking to see these oldies finish their days in a pound Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Winterpaws Posted September 13, 2013 Share Posted September 13, 2013 I wonder what she is like around other dogs and cats? Not that the cats would be an issue without any teeth I am sure a rescue will take her though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kelpiecuddles Posted September 13, 2013 Share Posted September 13, 2013 If anyone can get her down the coast a little, say to Wollongong or similiar on Monday I don't mind temp caring for her and getting her to Goulbourn the following Sunday/Monday Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yellowgirl Posted September 13, 2013 Share Posted September 13, 2013 Yes I will. Is she near Yellow girl? She's had a couple of oldie Poms lately and lost one recently so might have an opening spot? No sadly YG is in SA and Hawkesbury Pound is in Sydney. She's not due for five days but hopefully someone in rescue can help. I've flown dogs over from NSW pounds before but I prefer to do it only when all their other options have run out. If this baby girl ends up with no other options she has a safe place with me I've let Hawkesbury Pound know. Jo xx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clyde Posted September 13, 2013 Share Posted September 13, 2013 If she needs a spot and can hitch a lift to goulburn she can spend her retirement with us. Happy to babysit her here if need be - if it works like that transport wise and she needs a stop over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yellowgirl Posted September 14, 2013 Share Posted September 14, 2013 I've been in contact with Hawkesbury, she currently has adoption and rescue interest (not sure which group). Dear old bubs like this girl often have several names on them in the beginning but when it comes time to collect them people often realise that the reality will involve expensive vet work, ongoing medications, and in the case of rescue, a low chance of finding a home for an elderly, medically challenged senior dog. This little one has issues with her back legs and they will need to be looked into. If it doesn't pan out for her with the other options, between us, she will be safe :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loving my Oldies Posted September 14, 2013 Share Posted September 14, 2013 Don't be put off by back leg issues. Most creatures (including humans :D ) will have leg issues by the time they are this little girl's age or the equivalent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loving my Oldies Posted September 17, 2013 Share Posted September 17, 2013 I checked the Hawkesbury website and the little Pom is available for adoption from today. Hopefully she will be adopted by a someone who can give her all the love and care she needs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ash1 Posted September 17, 2013 Share Posted September 17, 2013 I so hope so and am sending all my positive energies towards her. I would desperately love to adopt her and give her a furever home, unfortunately I just can't afford the bust-out fee, transport and vet work involved at the moment after having taken another golden oldie out of the shelter a couple of weeks ago. It breaks my heart seeing the oldies in pounds/shelters. What the hell is wrong with people that they can just dump/not claim a loyal family member who has been with them for so many years? When our (10 year old) pom went missing in early August (RIP) we pulled out every single stop in an effort to find her - I would have paid all the money I had and more to have her back.
