CAN YOU HELP??

Winter is fast approaching and we urgently need WARM BEDDING for our dogs - old blankets, quilts, sheets, towels, anything that dogs can snuggle up in! We are also looking for donations of money to help towards the running costs of our heaters. Every one of our 3kw heaters costs about 30p to run for 1 hour  - CAN YOU HELP? Donations of bedding or cash can be taken to either our kennels at Coxhoe or Northern Stray-care vets at 21 High Street South, Langley Moor. Also cash donations can be made via paypal on the "Donations" section of the home page (Stray Aid is a registered charity no. 1117372) Or could you give a rescue dog a good home?

Antonia from Animal Krackers has written this poem for Max - will you give him a try?

Poem for Max

Please don’t walk by, take a look,

Read the first chapter of my book.

I came to the kennels with Sandy my sister,

She went to a home with a really nice mister.

So now it’s just me all alone,

Sitting in my kennel with my bone.

And as the other dogs come and go,

No-one seems to want me and it leaves me feeling low.

I might not be handsome or the brightest of the pack,

But I’m loving and I’m friendly so please don’t turn your back.

As the weeks turn into months and with the winter on its way,

Please let me be the one with whom you spend your Christmas day!
