If you want to buy a dog in rescue a pressie

If you want to buy a little gift for a dog in rescue, go to Amazon, enter Rochdale Dog Rescue in the search box and it will bring up a wish list for the dogs with the number of the item wished for and the number already received. Ive just bought a dog a bed on there but there are things like squeaky balls, kongs, bag of treats and so on on the list xx

Ohhhh that's a fantastic idea Hethmar .... will find a little something to sneak in!

Done!

It's come from Maisie's budget LOL .... it'll arrive a little after Christmas but sure they won't mind!

Must mention that to the (very small) rescue near me for next year ....

Done!
It won't be dispatched until 21st December but I don't think the dogs will mind too much

I think its a great idea too. Somehow, it seems more practical than just sending the money (which Ive done anyway). Thanks everyone who has sent them something.

On a sad note, one of the lovely dogs who was in emergency boarding for months til a rescue place could be found went to a rescue a couple of weeks back but has now been pts. Apparently he bit someone. No one can understand it as he was a lovely kind boy and showed no aggression at all in the time he was boarding, waiting for a place. RIP boy xxx

Also a gorgeous little puppy, George, JRxborder terrier has come down with parvo, even though he was innoculated. He is very poorly, positive thoughts for him please everyone.

Great idea. Bought a bed thingy.

Hope George gets better, poor soul. x

AWW, hope George gets well soon.

I don't get paid until tomorrow so will be buying a couple of doggy gifts in the morning, it's such a brilliant idea.

Thanks guys, these are the dogs who will receive the pressies Though sadly, I think there will be several more in there this time next week

Ooh, just seen that the beds are now off the list, so that means all the beds needed have been donated, thats wonderful. xxx

He looks adorable, I really wish I could re home every poor furry out there, they really tug at the old heart strings.

On a serious and practical note, how do we know if the orders have been received ok by the rescue?

The bed I ordered has been dispatched and will apparently be there by January 2nd, but what if there is some hiccup with delivery and I don't know about it? I'd hate to end up paying for something that never arrived.

I expected I'm overthinking again but the thought is in my head now. :rotfl:

I went with some of the toys where none had been donated yet!

Poor wee souls .... really wish I could help more ...... particularly love Ollie.

Sending positive vibes to George for a speedy recovery.
