This is what we deal with daily....helping those animals that need our help...(4)

The past 3 days we had been going to a hotel in the south of Dahab to try and catch Saba. She had been in our fostercare whilst waiting until she could travel to her new home in Poland. But then she decided to escape and run back to this hotel.which she apparently still considered her home. She refused to be caught...
The situation got more urgent when we heard that the management had poisoned the dogs there, a lovely friendly pack of 10 dogs.
Of this pack we had saved 2 a few days before, a young male that we had taken for neutering and the male that we brought in with what we now realise were slight poison symptoms (see first post in this series)
Luckily we finally managed yesterday to catch Saba and save her from the claws of death and also a female that had slipped through the first horrors.
Saba is lucky to be able to travel to her new home next month.
But the 3 we saved and are currently in our care...of course they can not go back to their old location... But then the question is, where to?
If there is anyone who wants to help one of these lovely dogs, please let us know.
Otherwise we will have to relocate them somewhere in Dahab and hope they don't return, like Saba did, to this hotel.

This is what we deal with daily....helping those animals that need our help...(3)

We were.on our way to catch a dog for neutering towards 3 Pools when we were stopped by bedouins. Their dog had been bitten by a snake they said and they needed our help.
The poor dog was in a poor state, shaking and frothing , it really didn't look good. We loaded her in the car and drove as fast as we could to vet Amira. There is no antidote freely available so with fluids and dexamethasone we tried to save her..
Sadly though she was already to far gone and she died at the clinic. We buried her in a nice place in a wadi.
Run free beautiful girl, run free 🌈

This is what we deal with daily....helping those animals that need our help...(2)

This.time it concerns a male cat who couldn't p*e because of a blockage to the urethra. We tried to help him a number of times with a catheter but the blockage kept coming back. So we decided to bring him to Dr Albert in. Sharm for a perineal urethrostomy.
A perineal urethrostomy (PU) in cats involves removing the p***s and suturing the deeper, larger-diameter region of the urethra to the skin to create a new urinary opening.
The operation was a succes and although the male cat is now "female" he can p*e normally again.
Thank you Dr Albert Gabra for helping this boy

This is what we deal with daily....helping those animals that need our help...

Today we drove towards the 3 pools to pick up a dog to neuter but instead we found this boy....walking with stiff legs and shaking, extremely dehydrated and starving.
Not sure what was wrong we loaded him in the car and brought him to vet Amira.
Hopefully it is nothing really serious, but for now he is in our care for some days to get his strength back.

The neutering of cats continues thanks to the very generous donation of 500£ made by Chiefy from the UK....

Last Thursday we finished off another successful 2 yearly TNR with Amira Nabil, Karen Kappen and Sharon Trinder. Only a week this time but the work done is still amazing!

35 cats (17 male, 18 female) and 7 dogs (4 male and 3 female) were neutered. One female dog neutering was canceled because she reacted badly to the pre-anasthesia.
One of the male dogs had nasty wounds to his balls and a broken leg so it was quite a heavy operation.
Then the vets also removed a big polyp from the a**s of an elderly male dog, amputated the tail of a kitten, did the numerous check ups and minor operations.
A super week! Thank you once again, Amira for letting us se the clinic, Karen and Sharon for offering up holiday time and all the cat catchers for helping out.

And can you imagine, the first time Karen came out to Dahab to help with a TNR was 10 years ago! 🥳🥳 That is quite something,, isnt it! Forever grateful!!! ❣️❣️❣️

Dahab dogs and cats for adoption....

27/10/2024

Animal Welfare Dahab has a number of dogs but also cats that are looking for the perfect home where they can spend the rest of their life surrounded by love and care. These animals we took off the street because of injuries or because they just can't cope on the street.
(See also our album https://www.facebook.com/share/p/Tp7WEFgp8J1xvGya/?mibextid=oFDknk)

Please share so we can make their day and the rest of their life!
Thank you

A spare room, a place in your garden.... Anything that can help a dog recover for a few days after operation.

If you can't help, maybe you have a friend who can....

Without your help, we can not help the dogs on the street that need our help!

Meet Ella. She is 3-4 years old
We took her off the streets when she was in heat, malnourished, tick infested and thus suffering from blood parasites.
She has clearly been used as a puppy machine.
Now that she has been sterilized and she is healthy again she can start enjoying life.

Ella is sweet, loving, playful also with other dogs, very attached to her human, good with kids and a pleasure to have around.

She deserves a perfect home where she can be part of the family,, not only for a week, a month a year. No, she deserves a loving family with whom she can grow old.
Who is willing to open their hearts and home to Ella?

We are very sorry to bring you very sad news. In July we posted about Solly, an old Golden Retriever , needing a (foster)home. We were then so happy that we had found both.
See link:
https://www.facebook.com/share/p/gEGPQmDcBXg7usZh/?mibextid=oFDknk

But yesterday Solly passed away. After first going through an eye operation, Solly started getting epileptic attacks. These attacks only worsened and the vets thought she had pressure building up on the brain and an extremely high blood pressure. The last few days she wasn't herself anymore , just a ghost of the Solly we knew.
We would like to remember Solly as she was running free as shown in the video. She was a joy to all who met her and will be truly missed

Thank you Toby and Fiona for opening your home to her, taking care of her and giving her the love she deserved .
Run free, dear Solly!

A caring soul posted this 2 days ago in a Dahab fb group:
There is a dog in ..... street. He is in a bad condition, he is dying. Is there anyone who can save this poor soul.

We often get these kind of messages or read such posts and most times when arriving at the location the situation is less bad then we were told.
But in this case.....
What we found was a male lab, just skin and bones, extremely anemic and truly dying.
A man opened the gate next to where the dog was lying. He proclaimed that the dog was his but he was very sick and not or hardly eating for 6 months already.
And if we could take him. He was willing to take him back if the dog recovered....

Well, with a handful of dry food we proved him wrong that the dog wasn't wanting to eat...the poor dog gobbled it down.

We heard later that this man still had the son of this dog and a golden retriever female.
So what? This male is not good enough anymore so you starve him and then dump him?

2 days later, the dog we have now named Buddy, is slowly getting some strength back. The fact that he keeps getting nose bleeds doesn't really help with the recovery but we are very hopeful that he is going to pull through.

And as soon as he does we will need a good home for him, one filled with love and happiness because that is what Buddy truly deserves.
He will be ready to travel as soon as we think he can.

Day 2, already a spring in his step

Day 1, trying to walk

Anyone seen this dog before? Does she have an owner? She recently had puppies. She was roaming El Fanar and peace road. She walked off after someone gave her some food. I wasn't able to find her again.. She really needs tick treatment and some good meals. If you see her, know where she is from or if she has an owner, please contact Animal Welfare Dahab and if you have the possibility, give her some food❤️

BE A FOSTER! "It's 100% rewarding.... All you need to do is give love" Animal Welfare Dahab will support with food and advice (when needed) Fosters needed for dogs traveling (from. 3-5 months)

UPDATE ON BAHR AND AN URGENT FOSTER/AFTERCARE PLEA Bahr was supposed to fly out in the end of Feb. But his adopter changed their mind last minute, and Bahr is still here. In a house full of dogs in need, and with me visiting him for walks daily. Good news: he's flying out in June, and this time he won't be let down. A big THANK YOU to all who's supported his travels - it's still happening! 🙏 I've asked for help with his fostering before, but nothing happened. Now his caregiver is truly overwhelmed by a number of dogs in aftercare who need special care and rest. Also meaning that Bahr is locked up in the garden alone seeking attention and playmates, but none of it happens. So - not happy about being locked up again - he barks. I find out about it once their caregiver has had it - and I need to sort it out NOW. So, is there anyone who will foster Bahr for up to 3 months? Or alternatively, is able and willing to help out Animal Welfare Dahab with short term dog aftercare (taking in dogs recovering from injuries etc.)? Bahr needs daily walks on a long lead, to keep his nose engaged (sniffing) and him calm. He'll be happy to be off lead on the beach, or in the desert. Has a great recall. Please. Please. Please. (I'll only be responding to fostering/aftercare offers.) Nanook

Update on our poisoned girl... She is recovering well. She was terrified the first day of the other dogs, her new environment and didnt know what to make of all these friendly concerned people. But as you see she is starting to wag her tail and is doing really well. We dont think returning her to the 3 Pools is a good option . So we either have to find another safe environment (after we sterilize her) or there is someone out there happy to give her a loving home....
