German Shepard dies of dehydration

spankmemunkey

Has anybody got any more info on the German Shepard that was loose around Tesco Ballybeg the past 2 months? apparantley she died of dehydration after just having 10 puppies. very sad altogether, i tried to approach her a few times but like everyone else she was too afraid to let people approach.

Very sad to hear that. I notice there are a fair few dogs, mostly greyhounds, hanging around Tesco ballybeg or the ballybeg stores. They look fairly thin and they are just looking for a bit of food the poor things. Whoever is supposed to be looking after them needs to never be able to own animals again.

It’s all on Waterford animal welfare facebook page ,two girls found the puppies and they are being cared for in foster homes and they raised well over 5k on a go fund me page for the pups.

The dog warden and guards wont go near the halting site, animal welfare laws dont apply to travellers in Ireland.

There's a gofundme page set up.

It's raised a bit of money too which is brilliant. I just heard about this sad case here.

Take out the "animal welfare" part of your post. They can do pretty much do anything they like. And no shortage of money either.
