Dee from the shelter contacted us a couple of days ago in regards to a dog that had been brought in by rangers after being dumped in a country paddock.
His name is Diesel. He’s 5 years old.
With a recorded attack incident on his file, Dee asked if we could do anything to help save Diesel from being euthanised.
You see there’s no room anywhere because there are dogs being abandoned all over the place. And a dog like Diesel with something on his file puts him on the list for being euthanised.
Dee got in a government assessor straight away. Feedback was that he is a beautiful dog but aggressive towards male dogs.
Dee knew he was worth saving. So she called us to come up to the shelter and work with Diesel to see if his behaviour could be turned around, and ultimately saved from being put to sleep.
Luke brought a few of our dogs, all male and Joey. Joey brings the energy.
We were there for four hours. Diesel underwent boot camp training before being introduced to our dogs at the shelter.
By the end of the day, Diesel was off leash with Tank, Chopper, Rosco, Barney and Joey playing ball.
We’ve taken Diesel home to the farm. There’s no place for him at the shelter or at RSPCA or anywhere else. Everywhere is full.
Today he’s having a great time living the farm life … that’s another video.
Shelters really need help more than ever. Above all else they need people to foster and to adopt. Dee could not do anymore for animal welfare. She works so very close to 24/7 and always feels she isn’t doing enough. She runs the most clean, lovely looking shelter where all the animals are above and beyond cared for. But there’s not enough Dee’s in our world and there’s just too many people who are simply giving up on animals.
Shelters and rescues everywhere really need our support.
Diesel is a lucky boy. It wasn’t his time. He’s still got a lot to learn but he’s going to have 20 mates now along with this new guy in his life they call Uncle Luke, to help him get there. Many of the pack have travelled a similar road to Diesel.
To Dee, thank you for saving Diesel and for giving us a call.
Barney and Chopper are wearing onesies. Barney has a leaky bottom and Chopper has a small wound that we don’t want coming into contact with anything that could cause infection.
