NOVEMBER 2018 DOGGIERESCUE.COM MAGAZINE 15

I first met Scarlet while volunteering at DoggieRescue
and immediately fell in love with her. While I could not
adopt or foster her I decided I would become one of
her sponsors.

When my husband Richard and I visited Scarlet after
her operation at The Cottage Animal Hospital at
Parramatta in October we realized how courageous
she is. Tail wagging, she hobbled towards us in the
consultation room -– familiar faces in a strange
environment: so happy despite the disability of losing
a leg. After a cuddle she nosed the pocket where she
knows I keep her treats and after she settled I gave
her a brush. The vet nurses told us Scarlet adapted
remarkably well to her new way of walking and quickly
wanted to go outside to the toilet which she can
manage unassisted. She also demonstrated at
hospital that she could get on with cats! We already
knew she loved people and other dogs and is not
bothered by cars. Scarlet is remarkable for all that she “ Scarlet is adorable and her love and positive
has been through.
spirit will reward you immeasurably if you open
Sponsors: Antonette and Richard Brisland your heart to her. Please consider fostering her.”

CHEMO STARTED FRIDAY 12TH OCTOBER
Scarlet commenced chemotherapy at Collaroy Vet
Hospital. She experienced the same side effects
as humans undergoing this treatment and is
managing it bravely.

THE SEARCH FOR A FOSTER HOME What
Scarlet needs is a home where someone is around
a lot of the time and she might need help to get out
for toilet breaks. A flat area is best for her. She
needs someone who is comfortable lifting 20kg
and preferably with a nursing or medical back-
ground to be able to monitor her demeanour and
recognise when things are not right. Regular vet
trips to a northern beaches vet are also needed.
