Small animal grooming anyone?

We have had some phone calls of late requesting small animal grooming,

So my question is- is there more of a demand than I’ve realised? And should we consider offering a day every month or so for small animal grooming?

Gimme your feedback in comments section

Anyone who is interested to volunteer - as little as 3 hours a week🐾 get in contact! They’re an amazing charity 🥰

🚨🚨 LPNI - CLOSURE 🚨🚨

We are due to reopen today and being completely honest with you guys, currently we only have one person in training.

Unfortunately we will remain closed for the foreseeable future as we still have a lot of work to do. We simply cannot function with the amount of volunteers we currently have. Our main struggle at the moment is with recruitment.

Many people that have applied to volunteer have been under the age of 18 which we cannot accept due to the nature of our cases. We have had quite a few people apply that aren't able to drive, it’s essential each volunteer is able to drive so they can attend a search and get themselves home after.

We are desperately appealing for like minded people that are passionate about animals / animal welfare, that don’t have a rigid schedule and that want to volunteer with us so we can continue providing our services.

Please share and tag anyone you know that could help.

Many thanks
LPNI 🐾🩷

🚨🚨 UPDATE - HOME SAFE 🚨🚨

Turner is still missing and today is day 4 since he escaped his home. Turner has a very loving family to go back home to and they are so worried about him.

We have feeding stations out in the area watching for him but are urging people to not call him as he is running in panic as soon as he sees people. If you have seen Turner or have heard of anyone that has seen him please contact us with all sightings. Turner was last spotted on Tuesday morning at 9:15am in Woodvale park.

Ballyhack area please share ‼️🚨🚨

INFORMATION: Billy went missing at around 8.20pm last night. He is an older gent and has an issue with his back legs. He is on medication so it’s imperative that we locate him asap.

Rehomed

‼️No need to telephone, you need to attend the kennels to rehome. All information contained in this post

🐶Benji is a male springer/cocker mix who is 5 years old. House/lead/car trained but has been living outside recently due to house move and landlord not allowing dogs inside the property, this is the reason his owner has chosen to surrender him as he always lived indoors prior to this. Vaccinated, no certificate provided, therefore booster recommended. Good with kids and other dogs.

🐶How do I rehome?
-We open 10am-1pm weekdays, 10am-12pm Saturday and closed Sundays.
***Bank holidays 10am-12pm
-You need to attend the kennels to rehome, we DO NOT reserve.
-There may be visitors waiting from before opening.
-Visitors will chose their dog in order of arrival (provided they have valid photo ID and we feel they are suitable).
-Visitors do not need to stand at the gate of the kennels, they are welcome to wait in their car and staff will be available from early morning to speak to them.

Rehoming fee for adults is £80.
Rehoming fee for puppies is £120.

A dog licence must also be applied for (we do this at the time of rehoming) licence free for over 65s with no other dogs, £5 for those on benefits or £12.50.

Kennels are situated at 40 Tobercorran Road, Downpatrick BT30 8HU

**We are a council dog pound and we work very hard to do the best for dogs in our care despite limited funding**

**Home Checks**
We do not complete home checks as there is no funding or resources provided for this. If we are concerned about a particular person or dog we can ask the dog warden to complete a home check prior to rehoming but there is no capacity for the dog warden to complete a large volume of these as they have their normal workload and duties.
ID is taken from each person wishing to rehome a dog, the dog is then microchipped and licenced to the person supplying ID.
We have been doing this for 23 years, we DO NOT just hand a dog out to someone who isn’t suitable even if they are the first person there, many visitors are guided and even refused where necessary when they are unsuitable for a particular dog.

**Spaying/neutering**
We complete spays/neuters when we are provided with funding to do so. This has kindly been provided by Dogs Trust in recent years. When dogs are spayed/neutered under our care they can be rehomed immediately unless our vet advises to hold them due to medical issues. The scheme is not perfect but it has allowed many dogs to be spayed/neutered that otherwise wouldn’t of been and from that perspective it has been a massive success. We feel many dogs recover better in a home than in kennels and for this reason do not hold dogs longer than necessary.

❗️**Facebook comments**❗️
Derogatory comments made against the kennels and/or their processes/policies will not be tolerated. We do the best we can in a very challenging environment and DO NOT have the time to debate with commenters on Facebook about the reasons we do things the way we do especially when they can’t even take time to read the page to establish we are a dog pound. Therefore any derogatory comments around home checks, spaying, etc. will result in the user facing a permanent ban from the page.

Adorable and handmade!🤩
