Do not let them off the hook

Images of unimaginable horror, torture and pain...
A dog who endures dog fighting will never be the same
This is NOT a sport, it's cruel, not a game,
Perpetrating evil for pure financial gain
Those who participate are human BUT NOT humane
Don't pretend it isn't happening or just shake your head in shame
Bringing an END to dog fighting can be our only aim.

Let us NAME and SHAME those involved. Let's bring them to book

Dog Fighting is illegal, it's a crime, let's not let the...

Don't delay, adopt Boo today...

30th August 2011: We have decided BOO (now renamed Dini, as in Houdini) is already HOME! He has lots of homework to do but is bright as a button and so eager to please. With our patience, understanding, regular exercise, consistent discipline, systematic desensitization, ongoing stimulation and training, he will fulfill his potential and be a PAWsome pack member!

We thank our very special friends who have helped a friend in need. Most notable Lindy Rolle for so c...

I think a good definition of Animal Welfare (rescue , rehabilitation and rehoming) is doing all you can do while knowing full well it can never be enough. Albert Schweitzer said: Think occasionally of the suffering of which you spare yourself the sight"...and I do! From now on though, I think it's back to VIRTUAL REALITY animal welfare work for me and my pack. Somehow the net (the world wide web and networking) is a nice security blanket with enough insulation for sensitive souls like me! Not...

Just TOOOO sad (and sadly far TOOOOO true too)

Dear Mom and Dad,

I died today. You got tired of me and took me to the shelter. They were overcrowded and I drew an unlucky number. I am in a black plastic bag in a landfill now. Some other puppy will get the barely used leash you left. My collar was dirty and too small, but the lady took it off before she sent me to the Rainbow Bridge .

Would I still be at home if I hadn't chewed your shoe? I didn't know what it was, but it was leather, and it was on the floor. I was just playing. You forgot t...

A bit about me

Gumby

Johannesburg, Gauteng, South Africa

RIP GUMBY - your PAWsome legacy and insPAWration will continue ❤your mom, Dido Abandoned in a township, and rescued by CLAW (Community Led Animal Welfare), I went on to be adopted and embraced by the Blagden-pack and taken to dog training where I was certified as a Canine Good Citizen. I am registered as a Paws for People Therapy Dog and visit lots of special people in various institutions. I foster a few CLAWbies who have been neglected, abandoned, abused or need some special TLC outside a shelter. I am also very involved in networking animals needing to find their PAWfect forever home and PAWsome happily ever after! Years ago I had my DNA analysed and I am in fact a Pekignese-Schnauzer-Yorkshire Terrier, with a drop of Pomeranian-Jack Russel and just a smidgen of Boxer... yip, basically I'm just a paveMUNT special super-callused fragile mystic plagued with halitosis ;-D
