ACT! Animal Care Thassos - Δράση για τα ζώα Θάσου
When Sophia came on 25th of October to the HalfWayHouse she found this pointer in the outside fencing. Did he find a hole in the fencing and went in himself, or did someone dumped him over the fence???
He is very skinny and has an eye infection, but apart from that he seems healthy. He is still a youg boy.
Today he was transported to the small enclosure in Kalivia where he will stay until he has put on some weight, gets his vaccinations and will be castrated and tested on mediteranean diseases.
This dog was spotted for weeks between Skala Marion and Limenaria.
Finally we could take her in, because a man in Limenaria was so kind to feed her.
She was immediately checked by the vet, because she had an old big, deep wound on the inside of her back leg.
Now, after a few days of antibiotics and worm and flea treatment she is feeling much better and the wound already starts to close.
As many... she had no microchip. If anyone knows where she comes from, please let us know.
Yamaha was the first of 7 puppies that was homed. On the island itself.
Unfortunately it turned out that the family was not the right one for him. So in August he came back to us and Gisela & Jürgen were so kind to foster him. He was quite anxious and had to learn all the basics, but in their experienced hands he turned into a lovely boy who loved life again.
They even found him a new family!
Yamaha is now living in Germany and listening to the name Oscar.
Half August Yannick moved to his new home. And oh, how did he deserve it!
It all happened very fast: one minute we got an offer for a flight escort but we had no adopted dog, the next minute we got a message that someone is interested in adopting Yannick!
Now don't worry we don't overhaste homing a dog, but this is a family to whom we have already homed 2 dogs, so everything could be arranged very quickly.
Yannick is doing very well in his new home and he has also already met Noah again, his old buddy in the HalfWayHouse. Since they live close to eachother they will seee eachother a lot 🙂
We thank Agnes for escorting Yannick on his flight and as always Jürgen for bringing him to the airport.
This week we had to make the hard decision to let Lara go. She was just getting too old, had trouble walking (even after medication) and didn’t eat anymore.
Lara was a street dog in Limenaria until in 2016 a man from Norway decided to take her home with him. So he named her Lara, arranged vaccinations and a passport. Sadly the man got health problems during his holiday, went to hospital and died. This is how Lara ended up with us. When she was to be sterilised the vet found out that she had a tumor stuck to her uterus which couldn’t be removed. We decided that she would live at home with Tanja so she would be under surveillance in case any problems would occur.
We are glad that we could offer her the last years a family life with other dogs and cats and we hope she is now reunited with her Norwegian friend.
