“A brief history – They are from a group of 10 in total that were left in a one room of a property after the owners disappeared -all dirty with faeces and matted to varying degrees. One of the owner’s family members has been trying to resolve the situation. Initially 5 of these were handed in to us as strays. Having been helped by GSD2000 previously we contacted them to secure rescue space for the dogs. Subsequently we have discovered that the owners had abandoned them in the property along with a further 5 dogs (Bruno and Goldie are the parents and there were 3 younger dogs).

Goldie is approx. 8 yrs old, short coat and unneutered. She was a little anxious but aside from barking at me when I was outside the gate showed no aggression to myself or the RSPCA officer with me when inside the garden. Bruno is approx. 4-5yrs and showed no aggression at all to either of us. He did have a problem with one of the male pups (approx. 2yrs) and several times was aggressive towards him, causing some puncture wounds, but didn’t appear to have an issue with any of the other dogs. He is long coated and currently quite matted.

At present we are struggling to find rescue space and as these dogs are not stray we cannot take them in. The family member is struggling to cope with the situation so the situation is quite dire. The property is owned by a housing association who will be taking the property back and changing the locks but have agreed to give us time to clear out the remaining dogs.”

Of course we said yes! Both dogs were in a dreadful state to the point poor Bruno had to have most of his coat shaved off. Bruno was microchipped but not Goldie. That has now been rectified and vaccinations started. Goldie is now spayed. Both dogs needed to build up weight and muscle mass as they had obviously not been properly exercised for months!

These poor dogs are now loving life receiving proper care and will be looking for special homes when the time is right!
