  • Pepis Refuge, Seville – dogs poisoned by local person! Please help

    Those of you who have read my book will know that I mention how difficult it can be for animal rescue volunteers to work – when local people against them and their work – and especially if they make conplaints against acts of animal cruelty – take retaliatory action against, the volunteers, their families, their homes, cars…and in this case their dogs.

    Pepis Refuge, near Seville, has become the latest victim of just such an horrendous and sickening act. Read about it here.

  • Beware sugar substitutes – could poison your dog!

    Sharing a message from Spain with you.

    Just a warning the new sugar substitute Xylitol is poisonous to dogs one teaspoon will kill a GSD, this advice has come from UK vets. It is also in some processed foods/candies and sweets, for example Orbit Gum so please be aware, it acts like giving a dog insulin and there is no antidote. So if you have 2 teaspoons in you tea/coffee and the dog drinks it you have a serious problem on your hands. It can cause liver failure for the dogs. Please share as widely as possible.

    Have to say our dogs never drink our drinks
