“Lots of people have been involved with this little one. She was with Kirsty for a few months then with a foster home near Javea and now she has been with Jacky Hazeleger since November.

Tasha was picked up 28/07/2015 after having been ignored in all likelihood for many months by people walking past. We only found out about her when PEPA was involved in another rescue and were alerted by Christina Royce that there was an injured podenco. Tasha had a broken hip and leg she had been like this for many months and no one did anything! Can you imagine the pain she must have been in?

It does not end there. Tasha had Sarnia; she needed painful antibiotic injections to heal her coat; this not bad enough she also tested positive for leishmaniosis and rickettsia ( now very low level leishmaniosis) so we had to wait even longer to do her operation. Finally on the 27th October this poor broken girl had her operation. She was very broken not just her bones but her spirit – she wanted nothing to do with people and it has taken her a long time to get where she is now.”

We need to find a forever home for her where she will have someone that can spend time with her one to one so she can begin to really learn how much more wonderful her life can be. I am trusting that there is a special person out there for this very special girl that has come so far”.
