Time: 11.30am to 7.30pm

ROCKY a.k.a The Rockster, the three-legged wonder dog, has many important and interesting people as friends and one of them is Miss World Malaysia 2009 Thanuja Ananthan.
Thanuja met Rocky when she learnt of him from the person who had rescued him from Batu Caves almost a year ago.
“I visited Rocky several times at the veterinary clinic where he was undergoing treatment and became one of his admirers,’’ said Thanuja.
Rocky suffered severe nerve damage to his right front limb due to an accident and had to undergo amputation of that limb.
He has also been vaccinated and neutered.
Rocky has been in the custody and care of canine welfare project Malaysian Dogs Deserve Better (MDDB) since his discharge several months ago.
Thanuja, who added that Rocky will always have a place in her heart, is also hoping that he’ll find a good home soon.
“He deserves a family that will love and care for him and I hope he’ll get adopted soon,’’ said Thanuja.
Rocky, who is slightly over a year-old, will be one of the dogs at the MDDB adoption drive at Jaya One, Petaling Jaya this Sunday.
The adoption drive from 11.30am to 7.30pm will be held at Block NB1, facing Station 1 and Old Town White Coffee.
Meanwhile, MDDB adoption coordinator Christine Lai Rocky appears to be oblivious of his dissability.
“He runs like the wind and can be very full of himself.
“If he were a human being, he would most probably be a pompus, self-opinionated and self-admiring individual,’’ said Lai with laugh.
She added those wanting to donate things to the canine welfare project can bring the things to the adoption drive.
“We need dry and canned dog, puppy, cat and kitten food, dog and cat shampoo, bleech, towels, old newspapers and washing soap,’’ said Lai.

JAMES DEAN a.k.a HERNIA BOY

HERNIA BOY AFTER HIS SECOND SURGERY


HERNIA BOY AFTER HIS FIRST SURGERY


HERNIA BOY AFTER ACCIDENT


HERNIA BOY AFTER ACCIDENT




James had been with us since the middle of last year after a car ran over him. Initially the vet thought that there was spinal chord damage and that he was paralysed but after the necessary tests, it was found out that the had diaphragmatic hernia due to the accident. He had his first surgery last year but had to undergo a second and more intricate surgery after he started shedding weight due to difficulty in digesting food. This was also due to the hernia. James, is a good natured dog and is always happy in spite of his health issues. That is why we believe that he needs all the help he can get to go on living. We will be bringing him back to Klang next week and boosting him up with good food. We are yet to pay for his second surgery which was a success and need your help. Details -

TEDDY, STLL LOOKING FOR A HOME


IT’S GOING to be puppies galore at the canine welfare project Malaysian Dogs Deserve Better (MDDB) adoption drive at the Summit shopping complex in Subang Jaya this Sunday.
The event which starts at 11.30am and ends at 7.30pm, at the Summit’s main entrance, will see about 25 puppies being put-up for adoption.
MDDB adoption coordinator Christine Lai said the puppies that would be up for adoption were rescued from Klang, Petaling Jaya and Cheras.
“We have many more, apart from the 25 we will be bringing to Summit, that’s being cared for by our fosterers,’’ said Lai.
She said there would also be several young dogs between nine months to two years that will be put-up for adoption at the drive in Summit.
According to Lai the older dogs have all been neutered, vaccinated and given all the necessary treatment.
MDDB is a canine rescue project initiated by non-governmental organization Community Development and Integration Initiative (CDII).
Meanwhile, CDII director Firoza Burhanudeen said MDDB urgently needed funds for the treatment of several canines including a few accident victims.
“We have a high number dogs undergoing treatment in several veterinary clinics and one of them is accident victim James Dean a.k.a Hernia Boy who recently underwent surgery for diaphragmatic hernia.
“The cost for the surgery is quite high as his organs had to be repositioned in their right place,’’ said Firoza adding that those who wanted to help can visit the MDDB blog at www.malaysiandogsdeservebetter.blogspot.com for details.
James Dean is currently being treated at a veterinary clinic in Petaling Jaya.
MDDB also needs puppy food urgently and these can be dropped off at the adoption drive at Summit. Other items urgently needed include dry and canned dog, cat and kitten food, rice, bleech, washing soap and dog shampoo.

PUSPAKOM PUPPY - GOOD NEWS

PUSPAKOM PUPPY - PHOTO TAKEN YESYERDAY PUSPAKOM PUPPY - PHOTO TAKEN YESTERDAY. PUSPAKOM PUPPY - IN A COMA WHEN FIRST ADMITTED TO THE CLINIC BROWNIE, OUR FIRST BILIND PUPPY RESCUED TWO YEARS AGO
BROWNIE, LEARNT TO WALK ALONG THE WALL
Remember the Puspakom accident victim - well our day ended happy yesterday. The puppy is now fully conscious and can stand. However, due to head injuries the eyesight has been compromised. The vet thinks the puppy is blind or could have acquired poor eyesight. We are confident that this can be overcome as we had successfully rehomed a blind puppy some two years ago. The chap called Brownie is a dandy chap, who knows his way around his home. His human has also indicated her interest to adopt another disabled dog sometime ago. We hope everything will work out well for the Puspakom puppy. We are grateful to our vet who had worked hard that this puppy survived. Thank you Dr, very, very much.
