Im back
Its been a rough week for me, had this damn awful stomach bug going around and had sooooo much to catch up on workwise after i recovered i just have not had time to get on the internet and post. Firstly... Thank you again to everyone who joined in with the raffle and helped make it so successful, we raised an awful lot of money to build the shelter, some of which we will have to use to get the lot cleared completely and of course costs always go up but we are making great progress, it is amazing to finally see our dream coming true and qwe couldnt have done any of it without your generous help. so again i say thank you .Arrivals and departures..... We have made a couple of rehomings recently, firstly sweet little Sandy who has made a trip northward and is now a citizen of the USA and also puppy Mel was adopted by a Brazilian girl living here in Playa, she may be coming back for Negrita soon when she moves into her new house with a garden. Thed may soon be going to a new home to live with Ellie and Osa ..We hav had some new arrivals too (my camera is playing up but i will post pics soon  )We had another mom and babies arrive mid-week, the five new borns are huge and very healthy (as are both the other litters we have here) we also took in five new young pups this week two of which are a bit sick as they came from the pererra and are very underfed and weak. Sushi is currently living at Maureens as Jez who was looking after her had to move to a no-pet apartment but hopefully she will be able to move back with us when the shelter is finished. Ok i think thats about it for now i will get some pics up soon.\Thank you for your patience Andy

I just want to thank everyone who has been able to help us so far raise so much towards getting the new shelter built, ...but we stiull have a little way to go yet, obviously "quotes" and "actual" are never quite the same which means although we are almost there on the shelter build we still need to raise a bit more to pay for the materials to construct the large runs for the dogs and also stuff like 3-4 tons of gravel for the walkways, money for lighting / electic and some kind of water purification system as bottled water for so many dogs is incredibly expensive !!!
We still have 6 pens available for sponsorship and if everyone who has so far sponsored a kennel could PM me so we can sort out plaques and logos asap i would appreciate it. Sorry to keep holding my hand out One of the small pups that came from the pererra on sat morning is at the vets for a blood transfusion as he is sooo poorly without this and a saline drip he wont make it, Bernie was non too pleased to be volounteered as the donor My camera has well and truly died, but it has been busy for the last few months so sorry no pics til i can get a new one which will hopefully be very soon.

Hey Andy, sorry to hear you have been sick. Is it a stomach bug or Samonella? It is going around the US and they think it may be from cilantro or tomatoes or something that was shipped from Mexico.

I have been getting quotes on materials to complete the shelter and so far the cost of the galvanised sheets i want to use as dividers is coming in at $14000 peso i will work on getting that down.
I am having some issues with the builder about the quality of the work he has done so far, we are not happy with the condition of the roof, there are huge gaps all the way around which are going to let rain in and also any strong winds may damage the roof so i am refusing to pay the whole bill unless he fixes the problem, i guess he thought that as it was "just for dogs" that shoddy work would suffice...wrong !!! ..watch this space __________________
