Ongoing Rescue Cases
 

As mentioned in our banner, we are the only independent shar-pei rescue that is listed in the Kennel Club 'green book'. This means we have to fulfil certain criteria to be listed. We have to show the Kennel Club references from other rescues and veterinary surgeries that we have worked with to prove we are running a bona fide rescue. We also have to have our kennels inspected and to receive local council, police and court clearance so the three aforementioned can hand over dogs to us.

MINI MAX

Max is a 7 month old black mini male horsecoat.
He's only around 14 inches high and probably won't grow much taller.
He's so small he can walk through the legs of our resident adult male!
He is neutered and in good health, despite his rocky start in life.
As you can see from the photo he was very skinny when he came to us.
Max has got a really nice, sweet temperament with people and dogs.

If you think you can give Max a loving, permanent home,
please contact Paul Saxton for further details
Tel: 0115 9191883 or e-mail: admin@sharpeirescue.org.uk

ALFIE

Alfie is a 20 month old blue male shar-pei.
He urgently needs a new home through no fault of his own.
Alfie currently lives with 3 other adult male dogs and despite getting
along with two of the other dogs, one has taken a dislike to him.
He also lives in a home with several children, so may be suitable for a home
with dog savvy children 10 plus years old. Alfie is good with people and
other dogs when out and about on walks, though he pulls a little for
the first few minutes from excitement. He likes being in the garden as long
as the door isn't shut on him and he loves a cuddle on the sofa with his
mum while watching TV.

If you think you can give Alfie a loving, permanent home,
please contact Paul Saxton for further details
Tel: 0115 9191883 or e-mail: admin@sharpeirescue.org.uk

LONE RANGER & TONTO

These boys are available through another rescue, but please contact
Paul Saxton for further details ~ Tel: 0115 9191883 or e-mail: admin@sharpeirescue.org.uk

Lone Ranger is a 6 year old neutered male horsecoat. Tonto is a 5 year old neutered male horsecoat. Both are typical energetic horsecoats who need a home with adults or dog experienced families with teenage children. They've lived with cats, but enjoy chasing them so a cat free home is best.

They may be rehomed seperately rather than as a pair. Their new families will be fosterers rather than adopters so the dogs will remain in the Cinnamon Trust's ownership for the rest of their lives. The advantage of this is their future vet fees will be taken care of by the trust. These two were given up due to a bereavement in the family and are currently being temporarily fostered by one of the trust's volunteers, so need a loving and stable home for the rest of their lives.

CHOCOLATE HORSECOAT

This dog is a male chocolate horsecoat, about 2 years old and is available for adoption through Manchester Dogs Home.

If you can offer him a loving and permanent home, please contact Lisa or Amanda.

UPDATE - PRINCESS

This beautiful girl was found wandering the street by a dog warden a few weeks ago suffering from a severe rectal prolapse, for which she has had extensive surgery.

A big thank you from Barrier Animal Care to all that donated towards
her operation and care.

Thanks to all that helped and donated, her operation was a complete success
and Princess is now settled in her with her news family.

Thank you from Princess too!

WARNING ABOUT THE SUGAR SUBSTITUTE XYLITOL

We recently nearly lost one of our shar-pei due to ingesting something that contained Xylitol. It is a popular sweetener everything from mints and chewing gum to toothpaste. We don't know how she came into contact with Xylitol, but luckily she was rushed to the emergency vet and the vet realized what it was quickly, saving her life. So far her treatment has cost £1000. Xylitol is highly toxic to dogs and a small amount can cause liver failure and death within 24 hours if not treated. Please be careful in both storing or discarding anything with this product as an ingredient.
