Please meet our gorgeous Trio, our latest Long Term Foster Dogs. Kasie, Ellie and Bailey
Ellie and Bailey are both 11 and are fox Red. Both are quite timid. Kasie is a 12 year old black lab who has cataracts and is blind. Of the three, Kasie seems to be the most outgoing! She has lots of spirit and doesn't let her eyesight impair her lust for life. Ellie and Kasie are particularly close and although it seems like Ellie depends on Kasie, it may be that Kasie is as confident as she is because she has Ellie.
It's been quite a struggle, but we are happy to announce that we have managed to rehome the 3 of them together. This was a huge achievement for our rehoming team, and we are so proud of the work they have all put in to keep these 3 together.
Since moving to their new home, all three have had a mobile pamper session. They went to the vets recently for a health check. Their nails were clipped, ears treated and were weighed. They all need to gain around 7-10 kg so will be on a high protein diet. Bailey was booked in to have his teeth done. Smelling sweet, they look like different dogs.
Today, the news isn't as positive.
When Bailey was put under at the vets today, they were extremely shocked by the awful condition of his teeth. He had to have six teeth removed and he needs to go back for more extractions. He also has very severe gingivitis that has gone into his sinus bone. This must have been causing him much discomfort, and yet he is as sweet as can be.
Today's and yesterday's vet bill was £668, £600 of which was for the dental work. We are expecting that again when he goes back. So far we have raised £1500 from your generous donations and fundraising, but Bailey's dental work will deplete most of their 'pot'.
So we are once again focusing on the trio for our auction next week . (Please follow the link to our fb auction page).

We made the commitment to help them, no matter what, and they deserve to live in comfort not pain for whatever time they have left.
If you don't want to bid on the auction, you can always purchase items for your dogs from our website or fb shop.
Kasie, Bailey and Ellie are very fortunate to have a kind and compassionate long term foster mum who will do all she can to take the best care of them. Thank you Heather from all of us in LiNland.
