R.I.P Scrappy
My dog was put to sleep yesterday.
He had a really bad heart murmur and his heart couldn’t pump the blood around his body quickly enough so his lungs were filling with fluid.
He was effectively drowning in his own lungs.
R.I.P Sweetheart
The house is empty without you and I miss you so much
I’ll always love you, I couldn’t have asked for a better dog

Watch this, you won't regret it...
Don’t you just hate it when someone tells you to watch a TV series? They tell you ‘it’s hilarious!’, ‘it’s brilliant!’, ‘a must see!’, ‘you won’t regret it!’. But yet they conveniently forget to tell you about the times you’ll spend sat in front of the TV screen, feeling physically sick as you watch characters...

Labrador Puppy Smell
Right now this is going to sound very odd…but bare with me! There is no smell like a Labrador puppy smell! They have their own distinct smell which is unlike the smell of any other puppy or dog. I can’t explain what the smell is like but I can’t get enough of it! I worked at a rescue centre for about 5 years and I was actually banned from showing members of the public the...

The Howl Of The Wolf
There is something beautiful about the call of a wolf. The first time I heard it in person was on my 19th birthday (I’m now 21) and it was my first day working at the UK Wolf Conservation Trust. As far as birthdays go, this was definitely the best! I remember standing by the fence, staring at these three gorgeous creatures, Mosi, Mai and Torak, and just feeling a shiver go down my spine as...

The Power Of The Written Word...
I had a recent conversation with a friend, I’ve known her for just over 2 years now and she’s pretty much my best friend, she mentioned how she has only ever seen me cry once. It was when we were leaving Pumba Game Reserve in South Africa and saying goodbye to the rangers we’d spent all our time with. I’m usually so good at controlling my emotions but that all broke down...

Tumblr & Imagination
I found a load of stuff from my childhood today, old books and toys, you know, the usual. It got me thinking about what I was like when I was younger and - as ridiculous as it is, I can’t believe I didn’t notice it before - I have a really over active imagination. Well I was always aware that I had an over active imagination, I just never realised to what extent.
As a kid I never used...

Last Night - Author Unknown
I stood by your bed last night, I came to have a peep.
I could see that you were crying, You found it hard to sleep. I whined to you softly as you brushed away a tear, “It’s me, I haven’t left you, I’m well, I’m fine, I’m here.”
I was close to you at breakfast, I watched you pour the tea, You were thinking of the many times, your hands reached down...

Ethics Rant...I Guess....
Why is it that redemption seems to be something only made for humans? A human can tear someone apart, maim and scar them both physically and mentally. A human can murder and abuse even the most innocent individuals within our societies, the youngest or most vulnerable of us, and their punishment is incarceration, with the chance of them being freed and let out onto our streets again when the...

A Poem For The Lost
They came without warning, or warrant, or reason,
And tore me away from me families arms,
Labelled a monster on just my appearance,
Not taking to account that I’ve never done harm.
Thrown in a cell with grey walls and no windows,
I’ll never again get to see a new day,
With time and date set I am left in the darkness,
No comfort nor mercy will come now my way.
The hope in...

Beauty & The Beast
“
Out of all the physically attractive, cuddly breeds of dogs in the world, why would anyone choose an ugly, un-cuddly dog like a pit-bull? A dog selectively bred for generations to fight other dogs and bears? A dog which empties an off-leash area in record time, makes people shun their owners, and involves a huge liability risk?
In the press recently pit-bulls have now reached Victimhood...

Today Was A Good Day ^_^
Today was a good day. Well it didn’t exactly start out all that great but the Staffie hugs and kisses turned it into one.
The fence of the garden that backs onto mine were knocked down a short while ago during a storm, this means that their, andtheirneighbours dog can get into our garden. The former owns a large Mastiff and the latter owns 2 Staffie’s. Because the former owners have...
Fish Abuse
Whilst at a friends, watching her fish in their little fish tank, I realised that you never hear anything about people abusing fish. There are always stories about people abusing dogs, cats, even rodents, but never fish.
As a vertebrate fish are covered under the Animal Welfare Act 2006. I have seen fish kept in appalling conditions, in tanks that are never cleaned, I’ve seen and heard of...

Of Feral Cats & Loving Dogs
I will never understand some people, I have lost count of the amount of people I have seen at the rescue centre that have decided that they want to adopt the near feral feline that has squeezed itself into the smallest space possible in the corner whilst emitting numerous different types and pitches of mewls, hisses, growls and other noises that sound as if they belong in a horror movie.

In Memory Of Lennox
At 7am on Wednesday the 11th of July, Lennox was murdered by Belfast County Council. This horrible news has undoubtedly caused many a tear and a broken heart, including my own, but I cannot even begin to imagine what his family are going through. Not allowing them to even say goodbye to him is nothing more than spiteful.
The statement that the council released stated that Lennox was one of the...
