I travelled up to see Christine Coulson this morning at the Leitrim Animal Welfare Centre, to make the presentation of the monies you raised for the much needed Animal Protection and re-homing work she does 24/7!

(Mum and son both neutered vaccination and wormed looking to go to new home together sweet cats super friendly)

dogSome of the animals showing on the FB page were there this morning as I walked around the kennels…oh how I wanted to take them all home with me!

One of the lovely dogs was being prepared for his final home journey to England, where he has been adopted.

Despite continued ill-health, Christine works hard to find homes for these unwanted sweethearts all over Europe, with 97% of all the animals getting new families to love and care for them.

(HI my names is Sean and this is my friend Max, poor Max has been badly treated and he is wary of humans our Dog Warden paired us together, so I can help Max be a happy dog again and we have a bed each but Dog warden keeps finding us cuddled in one, sometimes you just need your own kind to help you be yourself . Woof woof Max)

Sean looks just like my Jack!

  1. What a lovely post Colette. So lovely to see how people can be so generous and well done you for instigating this.

  2. You just want to take them all home and love them but it is comforting to know how many are re-homed. I am sure the money raised will make a big difference – what a lovely lady she is to work so hard to give these animals a loving home. Denise

  3. Thank you for sharing this. I would’ve contributed, but we gave to a local no-kill shelter (where we got our Tristan), that had an outbreak of distemper (they’d taken in a pregnant dog not realizing she was already infected before several of the other dogs became ill. The ended up having to put down 20 dogs that couldn’t be saved. 🙁🙁
