Recovering after surgery there is nothing worse than the dreaded Cone. Here are some more comfortable alternatives : Mila is wearing a padded ring which restricts her from being able to reach the stitches. Clover is wearing a surgery recovery suit and surprising ly she actually enjoyed wearing it.

Sunday Seniors🐶🐾💕💕

Ella is 11.5 years old and after being left at the pound unclaimed, she made her way into our care at SCARS. She is now waiting at the shelter for a second chance💔💔

Ella is a little nervous at first when she meets new people but warms up and enjoys affection once she trusts you. Ella is quiet in her kennel and very clean. Ella would prefer a lifestyle where she doesn't have to come across dogs off lead, and she's not a fan of going to cafes or out on lunch dates.

Ella is a sweet soft old girl who will suit a couple or family with children over 15yrs who will be sensitive to her needs.

After a rough patch in her life, Ella is looking for a special family who can help her come out of her shell, feel safe and confident.

Please consider adopting an older dog and helping them feel safe in their senior years.

Did you know that if you have a pacemaker, you can include it in your Will to be donated to a dog in need after you pass away?
Although pacemakers cannot be used for another human, they can help dogs with heart problems and potentially save their lives. You can arrange for the pacemaker to be sent to a vet of your choice. Many pacemakers are simply thrown away, and dogs may die because people do not know about this option. Donating the pacemaker can even save the dog's owner the cost of a new one, which can sometimes make a crucial difference in affording life-saving treatment.
How to donate? Update your will: Leave instructions to have your pacemaker removed and sent to a veterinary clinic of your choice
Ask your doctor to save the pacemaker: When your pacemaker is being replaced or upgraded, ask your doctor to save it for donation
Contact your local vet: Confirm that they would be able to use the pacemaker.

Living with a Rhodesian Ridgeback consists of 90% following each around, watching each other go to the toilet and wondering what the other has in their mouth 😂

Our super handsome boy Tsavo 💗💗

🙏 Possible Carer secured 🙏

This handsome fella right here is #159, a young Ridgeback mix, about 6-8 months old according to pound notes. He's currently sitting in a rural pound, and his life is hanging in the balance. We almost had him out before Christmas, but heartbreakingly, due to lack of foster carers, we had to leave him behind. 😞

We CANNOT leave him again. But without a committed foster carer locked in, we have no choice. We know finding carers for adult dogs, especially young and bigger ones, is incredibly tough, but we are nothng if not tryers.

Just look at that smile (and that tail) !

This boy has no idea that time is running out. Pound notes say he was found at the local school, wearing a collar, and was just SO HAPPY and friendly. Here's the ranger's notes for him:

#159 - Ridgeback x approx 6-8 months. Found at our local public school. We actually tried to follow him home as he had a collar and is so so friendly. But he just kept coming and sitting next to me instead of trying to find his way back to where he lived. So happy. Deserves a better owner than whoever hasn't come forward for him.

We've got to get him to safety and into "The Village"! 🙌

We desperately need a foster carer who can commit to this lad, not just for a few days, but until we can get him vetted and ready for his forever home. Can you open your heart and your home to him?

If you can help, please MESSAGE US DIRECTLY!

If you can't foster, please, please SHARE this post far and wide. 🙏

Important Note: If you’re seeing this on a post shared by a friend or a group, please be sure to message Village Tails directly! We don't get notified of comments on shared posts.

Let's get this boy to safety! ❤️

Dear RokanziRidge Family.
We hope you all had a fabulous Christmas. Below some beautiful pictures: of Kaizer with his "girls", Savannah with her gorgeous girls, Lucy with her loving family, Tsavo feeling Christmassy and Ozzie who coincidently bumped into his Auntie Zuri and Cousin Arlo on Yaroomba beach.

We wish all of you nothing but the best for 2025 ! May it be a prosperous one for each and everyone of you.

For us 2025 will certainly bring some changes: moving house, changing schools and "fingers crossed" a litter in April. Yay !

We are also going to start the New Year with a Puppy Beach Play date on Thursday 02. January at 03.30pm. Hope to see you there.

Best wishes
G. ###
