OUR NEXT MISSION

WE ARE ON A MISSION TO FINALLY COMPLETE

 OUR NURSING ROOM,

 WITH SOME HELP WE HAVE MANAGED TO GET A SHOWER UNIT

FOR THE DOGS TO BE BATHED AND GROOMED AND WE HAVE GOT THE TILES FOR A NEW FLOOR SO

ALL WE NEED NOW IS FOR A SET OF HOLDING CAGES FOR NEW ARRIVALS AND ANY

 ANIMALS AWAITING OR RECEIVING VET TREATMENT/OPERATIONS.

THESE ARE A VERY NECESSARY PIECE OF EQUIPMENT FOR US AS THEY ARE A COMPLETE

ISOLATED UNIT SO FOR ANY ANIMAL HAVING TREATMENT IT WILL BE NOT ONLY SECURE BUT ABLE TO RECOVER

PEACEFULLY WITHOUT FEELING WORRIED ABOUT THE DOG NEXT DOOR

THE BAD NEWS IS THEY COST £1500 SO FOR US THIS IS A MASSIVE MISSION TO COMPLETE

IF WE CAN RAISE THE MONEY IT WILL MEAN BETTER RECOVERY FOR ANY ANIMALS HAVING OPERATIONS

AS THEY ARE A STERILE UNIT AND VERY EASY TO CLEAN AND KEEP GERMS AWAY. 

please please if you know of any holding cages like these for sale please contact the rescue as we desperately need some to help some urgent dogs that have come into the rescue that need special attention.

( Added information below )

we are in need of blankets urgently, shredded paper and newspapers.

******************************************************************************

We have had several  people ring to say they would like to help with donations so being as we are trying to pay off out vets bill which is currently at £4415.23

 we have said if they want to make a donation then to send the cheque to us but payable to Jamiesons vet Group as this will help us in a great way to get this bill down

 as it is rising every week with the amount of animals coming into the rescue.

UPDATE:

update

10:30pm wednesday 23rd dec, just spoke to Gordon and Joy and they have finished counting the donation bucket and they have raised a FANTASTIC WHOPPING £1000 for the animals,

we would like to say a BIG THANKYOU to Gordon, Joy and there family in doing this lovely event in aid of Second Chance, thay have worked so hard and had to put up with the most worst weather ever I can not thank you enough for what you have done.

Here is Gordon and some of the family as the others are camera shy handing over the £1000 they had raised over the last 3 weeks for the rescue,

 we have decided that we are going to split the money into half and pay £500 off our massive vets bill and the other £500 is going to tile our main kennel block and nursing room which we have never been able to do.

once again many thanks Gordon, Joy and family ( don't forget my chocolate orange balls )
