October 2014 Case of the Month - Everything is coming up Rosie!

Rosie is 13 year old cat that came in for her booster a few months ago. The owner reported that although Rosie was eating very well she appeared to be losing weight. Rosie  looked well in herself but you could start to feel her bones so it was recommended to take a blood sample to see what was going on inside. Rosies bloods showed she had raised kidney enzymes and raised thyroxine levels. Thyroxine is the main hormone produced by the thyroid gland, a little gland located at the front of the neck ....

Rosie's story is on our web-site

Run Free Alliance - against breeding of Beagles for Animal Scientific Procedures

Morning all, Sherlock has been a very busy Beagle this month walking many miles in order to raise sponsorship and awareness for the Run Free Alliance - a group whose objective is to abolish the breeding for, and use of Beagles for animal scientific procedures and experiments in the UK. 

We pledged to walk 120 miles this month and it looks as though we will complete the month with 125 miles logged. If you could find it in the goodness of your hearts to donate even just 1p a mile (£1.25) it will all add up. 

Sherlock has perfected how to get his own way I hope it gets to you as it does me. 

Please donate through paypal to rebecca.runfreealliance@gmail.com and put Sherlock or my name in the comments. 

Thanks so much xxx

Pea Diddy (Poppy) has found her forever home!

Pea Diddy (aka Poppy), the Greyhound who featured as the August Case of the Month, has finally found her forever home. She moved in with her new owner Allison and new companion Spud the Lurcher on Monday. As you can see, she has already found the sofa and made herself comfortable! Allison also plays the violin and apparently it turns out that Poppy is a music lover! She sits beside her listening and then falls asleep!
