MDDB: HELP NEEDED - PLEASE FORWARD


 

Monday, June 21, 2010

HELP NEEDED

Dear people,

as all of you know MDDB's rescue work is never ending with puppies and dogs being taken off the streets almost on a daily basis. But we have also been rescuing from the pound and most of the puppies rescued come with distemper or parvo. We keep them at our quarantine center and treat them for at least six months before they are ready for adoption. We currently have several such older puppies and are in need of your help to pay for their medical needs. Those who are coming here through Malaysiakini - WELCOME. Please go through our blog and every little help we get from you would be greatly appreciated. Here are the young ones that currently need your help. All have been vaccinated and neutered.
Besides, them we also have younger puppies as well as an accident victim at the Mayo Veterinary clinic in Subang Jaya to care for. Updates on that later.
This is Mona and she is one of the last two surviving puppies from the Klang pound rescue that were still under our care. Mona tested positive for distemper after her rescue and had all the clinical signs. She was one of the five distemper puppies fostered by Mandy and was returned to us about three months ago after she tested negative for the deadly infection. All the other four had succumbed to distemper with Mona being the only survivor from the group of five. Since she was on a drug regime to counter distemper, Mona developed demodex and is now under treatment. We believe we would need to treat Mona for demodex for only two months going by the six months we took to treat Luca, whose condition was really severe.

Mona's side profile
This is Queen and her feline friend Tommy. Queen and her two siblings were born to a six month old pup during its first heat. The family was rescued by by a MDDB supporter from Kajang anout a year ago. They were directly brought to our vet in Klang and two of the pups, including Queen, and the mother tested positive for distemper. One puppy died, whilst the mum, Queen and the other sibling survived. Only Queeen had skin problems after the treatment. Her sibling lives with her human family in Sri Petaling, whilst her mother was adopted by a family in PJ. Queen is currently in the final phase of her demodax treatment and we hope to rehome her and Tommy together. Tommy was given to us as a kitten by a family that had seriously neglected him.
Tommy and Queen - best of friends
This is Monique. Monique and her sister were given to us when they were about a month old by independent rescuer Eileen Ng. Both pups were suffering from a severe skin disorder whereby the mites were actually found under the skin layer. The vet had advised for the pups to be put to sleep. Soon after that they tested positive for parvo and Monique's sister did not make it. Monique was in a worst off condition than her sister but we were determined to ensure that she survived. We got the vet to put her on drips and nursed her at our half-way-home around the clock whilst the vet made daily house calls to check on her. Today she is a vibrant and highly excitable puppy who is out of quarantine and ready for adoption.
Monique again.
This is Kapi who was rescued from Kapar. She was rescued together with her mum and four siblings. All had severe skin problems with Kapi and her mother being the worst. All have been adopted and her mother sent to live on a durian farm in Raub. Mum dog, who had no fur at all at the time of rescue, is healthy now and is very happy in her new home. Kapi, meanwhile, is getting better by the day and her skin is improving by the day. She is a very clever young dog who can open her cage and she often does this. Her favourite activity is letting herself out of the cage and 'partying' when no one is at the half-way-home.
Naughty but clever Kapi.
This is Mimi and she was given to us by a pork seller who was advised to put her to sleep because she tested positive for distemper. The pork seller refused to tell us where he got her from and we didn't ask him too much questions for fear that he may change his mind about giving her to us. She was about two months when she came to us. The intensive distemper treatment has resulted in her suffering from skin problems as well. Mimi is very shy and came out of quarantine about 4 months ago. Mimi again

Pogo was rescued from being caught by the Klang dog catchers by a Klang resident some months ago. He was the only one who managed to escape. He had severe skin problems and had been treated for it. He is in the final stage of his treatment and is ready for adoption.
Pogo lagi
This is Tiger. He too was rescued by a Klang resident from the dog catchers noose. He suffers from mange and is currently undergoing treatment. He is a very hyper fellow and loves his evening play sessions at the half-way-home garden. He has at least to to three more months of treatment before his skin condition gets better.
Tiger again
This is Shankar and together with Mona is the last of the Klang pound pups still with us. He suffered from parvo and corona virus upon his rescue. He had had an existing skin condition which became worse during his treatment and subsequent treatment. The vet told us he has no lesions anymore and his fur would probably grow back in a month or two with treatment.
Shankar
Please help us help these pups. We are in the red after paying for Lester's treatment and are depending on your generosity to help these unfortunate young canines. To those who came here from Malaysiakini - please go through our blog and feel free to call any of the numbers to speak to us.

MDDB: PLEASE SUPPORT - PLEASE FORWARD


PLEASE SUPPPORT

CHARLES SANTIAGO - He had made over 100 attempts to see Zulkifli Abbas
KLANG MP Charles Santiago had made over 100 attempts to contact Klang Municipal Council (MPK) acting health director Zulkifli Abbas over the mistreatment of dogs by the council. He is yet to respond. Who does he think he is? Does he expect the MP to call on him? Has he forgotten that he's a civil servant being paid with the people's tax RM? On Wed, the MPK dog catchers threatened a domestic helper bodily harm and grabbed the two dogs she was walking. They abused the dogs and threw them into their van to be taken to the pound. This cannot be allowed to go on. In view of this Mr Santiago has called for a press conference on Sunday, June 20 at
No.54C, Jalan Kemanyan, Taman Radzi, Radzi , 41200 Klang Selangor
.
There is also going to be a gathering of enraged dog owners and lovers who are aghast with what had happened. Please lend them your support. For directions please call Mandy Chee - 012-3616163.

Little Forrest among 12 puppies up for adoption


CANINE welfare project Malaysian Dogs Deserve Better (MDDB) is hoping plucky puppy Little Forrest finds a loving home at its adoption drive at the Summit Subang Jaya shopping complex on Sunday (June 13).

The adoption drive at Summit's main entrance will be held between 11am and 7pm.

MDDB adoption coordinator Christine Lai said Little Forrest was rescued from the Selayang Municipal Council (MPS) pound in February.

"He was rescued by an animal activist who visited the pound. Little Forrest was very sick and had countless ticks on him,'' said Lai.

Thanks to the dedication of his rescuers, he pulled through after being put on drips and given a blood transfusion.

Currently, after being discharged from the clinic last week, Little Forrest is a happy puppy in need of a loving home.

Ready to be loved: Little Forrest is no longer little but still waiting to be adopted.

She added Little Forrest had almost died on several occasions at the clinic after his rescue.

Luckily he had pulled through and Lai attributes this to the puppy's fighting spirit.

"He has a strong will to live and fought very hard to survive. Sadly, most of the puppies rescued with him succumbed to various illnesses they contracted at the pound,'' said Lai.

Besides Little Forrest, MDDB will also be putting up more than a dozen puppies for adoption at the adoption drive this Sunday.

According to Lai, MDDB rescues many puppies monthly and always in a dire need to locate good homes for them.

"People have also taken to leaving puppies at our door step and because of this we are always full house,'' said Lai.

Lai added MDDB has also started to actively rescue cats and kittens and would be launching a feline rescue group called Malaysian Cats Care Project (MCCP) soon.

Those wanting to donate cash and kind can also drop their contributions off at the adoption drive this Sunday.

"We need dry and canned dog and puppy food, dry and canned cat and kitten food, old newspapers, dog and cat shampoo, old towels, rice, cages, detergent and bleach,'' said Lai. For details, call 019-3576477, 012-3739007 or visit www.malaysiandogsdeservebetter.blogspot.com.my

Penang: Finding a home for our dog

From: Ken Chee [mailto:chee_ken_ming@hotmail.com]
Sent: Wednesday, 26 May 2010 9:32 AM

Hi All,

     I'm sending this email to ask if anyone or know of anyone who would like to adopt 'Puppy' and give him a good home to stay in. He's a 1 year old Spayed male mongrel. He's an affectionate boy with very good temprament. He's very intelligent and semi trained (well he know's how to sit and stay just from the short period we trained him) and is active whom loves the water. He is also current with all his vaccinations. We initially found him living at the house we were staying during our holidays in Penang and grew fond of him thus taking him in. However, we are back in Melbourne and found out that the owner of the house does not want him there. We then organise another arrangement for Puppy to stay at another place. However, due to the changes in circumstances of the person taking care of him, that person is no longer able care for Puppy as well

     We wanted to bring him over to Australia but due to his unknown origin and the strict quarantine rules in Australia, we were told we are not allowed to do so.  Hence it saddens us but we have no choice but to send him to SPCA Penang. SPCA has named him HAPPY due to his nature….happy.

We would hate to see him euthanise as he's such an intelligent and affectionate dog. If any of you are thinking of getting a dog or knows of a person who's thinking of getting one, I hope you would consider Puppy/Happy. This is a plea from the bottom of our heart.

      I can be contacted via email chee_ken_ming@hotmail.com if anyone needs to know more about Puppy. I've also attached a photo of Puppy/Happy to see how adorable he is.

     

It will be nice if you guys can forward this to your friends and family to see if they could help. Thanks.
