I'm posting this on behalf of Norma MacClaren or Pedigree Dog Rescue in Ireland.Norma rescues purebred dogs of all breeds.
I'm sure she won't mind if I tell you that she is one, very feisty ,senior citizen who runs the rescue on a daily basis all on her own ..despite needing to go to the vet for a hip operation herself! As she says ..who will look after the dogs?
Things like collars & leads have to be a low priority when a St Bernard comes in needing expensive operations on both eyes or an English Mastiff needs a hock operation so it can support its weight properly. (Both these dogs are currently being treated)
It can be a tough life running a rescue so I'm hoping someone can donate some prizes to Pedigree Dog Rescue .It will give Norma a very warm glow to be reminded there are people out there who care as much about the welfare of dogs as she does.
She is not on the Internet but can be reached at
Pedigree Dog Rescue, Lisadonna, Clough Jordan, Co.Tipperary Eire.
Please help if you can.

Sadly, after many, many years, Norma has retired from Rescue.
Just want to wish you a long and happy retirement - Norma! Perhaps you can get a holiday now! ;D
