Activity Report – October 2021
133 more dogs have been sterilized and were taken back to their living places. The total number of sterilized dogs now stands at 8,154.
I relocated a few dogs within the shelter areas. Oscar now stays with Merlin and Ryan's dogs Binglee, Bee, and Snowey. Additionally, I put Maggie into the area with the big Sala. Both moves turned out to be successful. Two more Salas have been built; one has been set up for Bella and Princess in the Merlin area, and one more was put into the area where Elly and her pups are living.
Kofi, who broke out of the shelter several times, now lives in Wat Amparahm and has adjusted very well there. Some dogs are not made for a shelter life and need their open spaces.
I, and other rescuers, have been looking for four dogs that were living on a parking lot of a recreational park for years. Several months ago, one of them disappeared and now another one as well. They were very trusting and easy to take away. We fear that they have been killed and eaten, at least residents were assuming that. In order not to lose the remaining two females, I decided to take them into my shelter, and they are adjusting well. They are now staying in the big-Sala-area together with Ryan's big dogs, Emma and Victor. These two pups are developing very nicely.
I took Pit in for two weeks. She is suffering from TVT and was preparing for her first chemotherapy treatment. After the first injection, I took her back to her owner's house. The treatment has to be repeated several times.
The blood of Tiny, Tanya, and Taya, the only shelter dogs not yet sterilized, have been tested. Tanya's test result looked perfect, but Tiny and Taya are suffering from mild anemia and have to be treated. Piak's kidneys have been tested as well. The condition deteriorated slightly. The daily fluid treatment continues.
A new area with a spacious Sala had been created at the end of the month. Three dogs of my volunteer Pat will be accommodated there while Pat is abroad for a couple of weeks.
