Request for help


Recieved this email today from a gentleman in need of help finding foster care for his 2 jrt doggies. The gentleman is desperate so f you know of any one that can help please contact me and I will get him to contact you.
Thankyou.

Hi

I spoke to you earlier today regarding fostering for my two Jack Russell
bitches.

Lucy is 6 years old and her daughter Tia is 3 yrs.

I was told last Monday that i had to have both dogs out by today (mon 22nd
Feb), i have been on the phone to more than 20 numbers asking if anyone can
help me, i have been on the internet, all to no avail.


I was a live in carer for a gentleman with terminal illness who sadly died
recently, his son has decided he is selling the house and i now find myself
jobless and homeless, all i require is some temporary help with looking
after "my girls" because i have been in hospital with a chest infection and
pleurisy, i am in temporary accommodation and cant take them there. My
family and friends all have dogs and can't help.

I am on my knees in desperation as the "girls" are my life and i don't want
to give them up.

Thank you

John Flesher

Re: Request for help


Sorry, Yes it is in Aberdeen.
Could I ask that if any one looks at this and works for the council or big oil company in the area, could you help by copy and paste the email around your place of work.
Trying to get this out fast and as wide as possible.

I know it's a long shot putting it on here but you just never know who is reading or who knows of any one in the area that may be in a position to help.

Re: Request for help


Oh I really feel for him what a desperate email.

Good luck to him and please let us know if he's successful.

Just a thought, what about posting on dogsey and over 50s forum? More people frequent those sites . . .

Re: Request for help


Have posted on Dogsey and several other sites, sent out a mass email too. I have even called an old lady, who called me a while back looking for a dog. Have explained the situation to her and told her that she is under absolutely no obligation if she doesnt think she can do it. She is going to talk it over with her family and get back to me tomorrow. Wouldnt want her to take on something that she couldnt cope with.
