This little chap is Danny.
DANNY urgently needs a home! He is with Meath Dog pound and will be put to
sleep if no home is found quickly!

DESCRIPTION:
Danny is a 3 year old male Boxer who was give up by his owner on January
22nd, 2008 . He is a very affectionate dog and is looking for a home where
he could be an indoor dog as he doesn't like to be kept outside.
Danny is not a fussy eater and will eat anything. Like all Boxers, Danny
needs plenty of exercise. He has a very good temperament and came from a
family with children.
If you can offer Danny the kind of home he wants and needs, please contact

oh bless his little heart,
is there not a rescue centre that can take him in ??
Wonder if the owners that gave him up know he is about to be PTS !!
-
I think a lot of people know with the Irish Pounds they are usually only given 7 days, sadly Danny isn't the only one :'( :'( I've had an email about 4 more that only have 7 days to live unless somewhere is found, not sure where these are based though :'(
-
That's so sad. He looks such a nice dog too. :( I hope someone sees him and gives him a chance.
-
Its so heartbreaking knowing there is nothing you can do.
The only comfort i can take from it is being PTS is just like going to sleep, its quick and peaceful.

Dawn,
Not sure if this is of help but this site lists all rescues in in Ireland ... maybe the SWAP team could contact one with a no kill policy and help poor little Danny: http://www.h4ha.org/shelter-directory/index.php

Thanks Sam, I've sent it to them :hug: I'm going to keep that list myself as well as it's very handy to have :hug:
-
It's a really good webstie actually and lists shelters worldwide: http://www.h4ha.org/shelter-directory/index.php
-
Have crossposted on a couple of animal sites too - hopefully all the publicity will get him a home in time.
-
Thanks :hug:

Poor boy :(
Ireland really stuggles with their strays, theres several charities who rescue them and then bring them into England for rehoming.

It's a shame I'm haven't spoken to my sister in years, she's in Ireland and has about 7 dogs but I think it would be a bit suss to ring her after all this time and say, by the way would you take another dog on :tired:
