Rainbow Fluffy Sparkle- a lucky pup in her new home- need we say more?!

Almost a year ago there was a little saluki lurcher reported as struggling to walk on the streets on Tuam. X-rays showed she had a badly broken hock on one back leg and severe ligament damage on the other. After 10 months of enduring operations, frustrating crate rest and doing hydrotherapy, Pacina has now fully recovered and is enjoying lots of love and care in a perfect home. We are proud to learn she is now called Erin but wish to also thank the vets, rescuers and carers in Ireland who never gave up on her.

Mountains were moved and he was rescued and is walking normally after some simple care. How his role has reversed… now known as Teddy / Ted, he is celebrated for coming 500th ( in the list of hounds rehomed by Erin Hounds) and will again be making money but this will be used to help other sighthounds also facing death, since he has been adopted by a pair of our star fundraisers.

Ray says “Big dogs rule ok!”. His height is proving very useful because not only is he nearer the treats than his new housemates Ethel, the bossy chihuahua and Rosie, the whippet but his stature attracted his adoptive owner as it helps her walk out independently with confidence as he doesn’t get under her feet.
