BIANCA [portugal] NEEDS HELP

Dears

Decidedly this year is the most dramatic of all. The crisis is an
excuse... But animal conditions has worsened in Portugal and Bianca is
witness of that.
Since the beginning of this year, we already collected 45 new animals
and we ask "how can this happen?" We haven't answer for this question!
But many of this animals are in Temporary familys because we don't
have more space in our shelter.
At this moment Bianca need food and money for all high costs we have
with surgery and treatments.

Some of following cases illustrated the suffering these poor animals
have been by the hand of cruel and heartless human being. See all
cases in our newsletter:

Wendy is a sweet and gentle female dog, with a sad and appealing eyes.
She was found in this conditions... What kind of suffering she has
been. Blood tests was made and leshmaniosis came back negative and we
are awaiting biopsy result but it's getting better.

Kelly was abandoned in Quinta do Conde, but she have an electronic
chip unregistered...
It's a young, calm and gentle female dog with skin fungus and it was
visible in her eyes the pain she was in! All body full of wounds...
If one day Kelly's ex-owners see this message, we just want to say:
"This planet would be must more ecologique without beasts not
deserving the air they breath".

Bambi was in this condition... Poor animal! After being vaccinated and
dewormed, he had a bad reaction and got sick, very sick. Maybe he was
full of parasites, but he's an angel! He may get out of the vet
tomorrow. See the pictures here:

Amelia was rescued from the streets of Quinta do Conde, pregnant! We
took more than one and half hour to catch her, but thanks to Filipa,
Sónia, Ana and Fernanda we manage to take this girl from the streets.
Despite her fear, she didn't try to bite us not even once.
Amelia is already sterelized and she learn that not everyone wants to
hurt her and let us caresses her, shakes her tail... well it's a joy
to watch her!
Now needs a family to love and be loved! See Amelia here:

Baffy was left tied to a tree... easy and coward way to solve one
problem, just pass along the problem to others and wash the hands...
On the tree they left a note saying: " Keep me, I'm gentle".

Puga, a poor little dog abandoned with itch. He feels so scared that
he don't understands what it's happening. One treatment and will be
fine.
His bad luck... like so many others. Cruel ex-owners!

Ghandi, a dog in Sesimbra known as "Castanho" (Brown) had an bladder
surgery - he couldn't urinate - he also have arthrosis. But Ghandi is
hanging on very well!

Margarida was operated and is recovering in one temporary family. Now
she wants to move at her will, still has external fasteners. Because
of that Margarida don't stop quite one minute and barkes all time. She
really need a new family, but she don't likes children so this new
family can't have kids!

Doris was abandoned - like so many others we know - and attack by
several other dogs! So little and scared and everyone attacking her.
But she got lucky, someone from Bianca take her and now she only need
"five stars" new owners!

Peggy is so submisse that she start to urinate and roll over on the
floor everytime we came near her, so we ask to someone to adopte her
to give her unconditional love, she really need it. Once again
abandoned in Quinta do Conde, surrounded by male dogs that got her
pregnant.

We have much more cases to tell and show you but it would be exhaustive.

Bianca also like to remember all fo you that we still have calendars
of 2010, BEAUTIFUL calendars!

And don't forget our Valentine's Day Certificates, it's a true original gift!

Your soul mate will be touch with this prove of love to you as well to
ours best friends!

Thank you very much.
