If you can prove who did this ugly deed, people should publish her picture, name and what she did at every dog competition in South Africa!! I hope Freya and Ostara are re-united with you soon. Stay strong!
I am speechless. I cannot imagine how you feel to have your two, dear dogs taken away. If I were to lose Jasper I would not be able to take it. How someone could even think of doing this to another person totally blows my mind. I hope your dogs are returned as soon as possible.
There is nothing to like here. it's a crying shame, that two dogs be made to suffer for the problems of humans. Irrespective of the sides of the argument one can take in the matter of agility competition, the dogs themselves should be left out of it. Shame on anyone who deems it necessary to lash out at others through or with their dogs.
Our sympathies to the two dogs, whose only "crime" was "to be".
This is so heartbreaking, all our thoughts are with you and I hope that you can rescue your poor dogs from this situation shortly. If there is a petition or anything else I can do to assist I would be happy to. I think the person who is responsible needs to be named and shamed
I sent a link of the video to PETRA who said they will reach out to this family.. Please anyone who can do the same please send teh video or video link it to all groups who may be able to help lets not allow these dogs to go unnoticed..The more we push the more we can help these dogs..This is a chance to use the power of the internet to help and save these poor dogs
I certainly hope that you have resolved this horrid situation by now.... our prayers are with you. If this is still ongoing, please obtain legal counsel. These poor babies deserve the best!
Oh - what a horrifying experience for your poor dogs and for you. My heart goes out to you. Is there anything we can do to help you get support to get them out early?
OMG! this is disgusting. My prayers are with you and your beautiful dogs, Alison, I hope they get out FAST! Absolutely appalling! Shame, shame, shame on the person who caused this. To that person: Don't take your competitive grievances out on innocent animals, treat them with the respect they deserve! LOSER!
I hope you get all the support to get these dogs out, now!
Oh my God, this is a nightmare. I burst into tears in the first minute thinking how my dogs would feel. Surely some legal channels can make sense of this.... how can people be so cruel? I'm in the USA, is there anything we here can do to help?
Can we help in any way? Do you think a petition or letter writing campaign to DEFRA would get you and your dogs the attention required to get the investigation resolved more quickly? I want to help if possible.
so sad. I hope the person responsible is barred from competing for unsportsmanlike conduct. Best thoughts to your pups and hopefully they are released soon.
Can't believe a dog person can be so cruel to your dogs..... I hope you can get them out of there as soon as possible and I hope you find out who they are because they will certainly be the most disliked person in South African Agility!!!
My heart really goes out to you and your dogs. Like everyone else I am completely shocked that something like this can happen when you have correct supporting documentation. And to think that the sick sick person thats caused all this is supposed to be an agility person and "animal lover" !?!?!?!? If a petition is started please get in touch.
As far as helping with the dogs wellbeing have you given them a DAP collar each and also ask the staff to give them Zylkene supplied by you? These would both help ease the trauma. Have you contacted Trevor Cooper? He specialises in Dog Law and may be able to help. His email is trevor@doglaw.co.uk To this day i never understand humans.....they do these things to spite other humans or to gain something for themselves...but NEVER stop to think about the animals that suffer through their actions.
Why can't something be done about this situation? At least reporting the kennels to the authorities to clean up their act would be start!! Get a solicitor on the case and get something sorted. Good luck and hope it ends soon. To the b*****d who caused this I hope something very painful happens to you soon!!!
This is outrageous, your dogs have already done their quarantine & have their travel documents. This is obviously a very evil spiceful person who has done this
Thia is incredible, I hope the Agility ASSOC. there does all they can to help and turn this around for you and I hope that you can get your babies out soon!! Anyone who is out there who can get something going to help these dogs and their family Please Step up and help and if there is anything we can do who are watching please LET us know..If the name of the person who made this happen can be known it should be made known so they can be help accountable for what they have done
How truly truly awful for you and your dogs. Although I can do little apart from forward this to as many people as possible, I do believe in "What goes around, comes around" and I hope with all my heart that this is true and comes back at the person who did this to you (and not their own dogs). In the meantime, keep fighting, keep pestering, keep phoning and writing and hoping. Very best wishes, SJG, Australia
What kind of heartless. spineless self centred individual would do this? If there is any chance that this could have been avoided and the individual involved is doing this for personal gain, your brief gains in self worth based on your dog winning (which is clearly a reason to get another dog out of the way that you cannot beat) I truly hope that your name gets exposed and that you are completely and totally ostracised by a community that is small enough to spread the word about you.
How is this possible! What a travesty. I hope your dogs get relief from their terrible situation. And I hope that the person who caused this is exposed. How is it possible that the government can impound the dogs for 6 months anyway? What are they being accused of? I hope someone comes to their senses and releases them soon!
This is so sad in SO many ways - for you, for your dogs and also just sad that people can take this wonderful "game" and turn it into something so competitive and ugly. I pray that it will be possible for you to get your dogs out soon.
Its disgusting that someone can do this to a poor helpless animall! I am crying listing to this, these poor poor animals. Thinking of you and let us know how things is going.
:-( Sending my best wishes to you all, this is too terrible, back stabbing and bitchiness in the dog world rears its ugly head again and has been brought to a whole new level and for what, jealousy??
I hope the UK governments investigation is completed quickly and your dogs are returned post haste!
To whomever it was who sent the complaint, you are a sorry excuse for a human being, don;t even have the conviction to put your name to it :-(
Can we get a comment from the South African Agility Association. Why was this done, a direct request for the valid documents would have resolved the matter..... or is there an ulterior motive.
Does the person who laid the charge own a dog?????
Alison I am so disgusted with the way this cowardly person has treated you and the dogs. I hope she is ostrasised by the agility community and that her name is made known to all.
You and the dogs fight it out and we all hope this turns out well.
Britain has always had 6 months quarantine law. Which is why I don't go back while I still have cats and dogs. I wouldn't put them through that.
