tobie Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 (edited) I just saw on facebook that there is currently a Great Dane, 6 yr old male at Renbury Farm as the owner had surrendered him. Thought I'd post incase someone can help him as it mentioned that he does not have much time. Edited April 9, 2014 by tobie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kelpiecuddles Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 There was someone on a transport page asking whether anyone could help transport him so I was hoping that meant he was safe. Fingers crossed he is! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tobie Posted April 9, 2014 Author Share Posted April 9, 2014 I just looked at Renbury Farms website and it states: Urgent Rescue/Adoption Save by 3pm Thurs 10/4. Can anyone help him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Her Majesty Dogmad Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 I hope there is a GD enthusiast who has room for him, it does say he hasn't been socialised with other dogs so that would need to be checked out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sas Posted April 10, 2014 Share Posted April 10, 2014 (edited) We had been in contact with the pound. What I find incredibly frustrating is Gumtree posts I presume are being made by groups like Pound Rounds that say things like GOING TO DIE / BE KILLED on (insert date) - this dog was never at risk of being euthanised, we had let the pound know we would take him if not adopted. All this does is create an emotional response from people - I fear because of this, this dog has been adopted by someone emotionaly charged rather than going with logic. This dog looked like it has Entropian and a Skin condition and on-top of that may not have been socialised > not the kind of dog you adopt on an emotional charge, especially not a giant dog. If you see a Purebred in a pound please contact their relevant rescue to let them know, in most cases we will move heaven and earth to help.

They make it seem like it's the shelter themselves, I have nothing positive to say about these people who play on peoples emotions to get dogs adopted potentially into very unsuitable homes.

tobie Posted April 10, 2014 Author Share Posted April 10, 2014 Thats no good SAS I hope whoever adopted him is an experienced Dane owner. When I saw him on my facebook page I just thought I would put something on dogz online about him rather than ignore it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you had your rescue group's name on him, sas, why wasn't that on the Renbury website, I wonder. Not that I was looking at the website which I very rarely do anymore, just this thread caught my eye. Knowing Renbury, I would have thought they would be up to the mark and would not want misrepresentations of their intentions regarding any animal. So reprehensible of people such as Pound Rounds.

So reprehensible of people such as Pound Rounds. it wouldnt be the first time Renbury has left a name off a dog. I was working on one for a while only to find a rescue that could take the dog and when the rescue went to put their name down they said someone already had but it wasnt on the site. Another time a rescue was told they couldnt put the name on the dog until its holding period was over which I found odd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Things can move pretty quickly at shelters and can take a while for the website to be updated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
