Foster home in the UK for Miley

Miley has the chance of a foster home in the UK until a home is found for her!

So we need to raise fund to get her to the UK. In total this costs us around 770 pounds for all her tests, injections and transport to the UK.

This is Miley's big chance = Please help her to get a home of her very own x

Transporting dogs out of Turkey.....

...is no mean feat.  There is a terrific amount of legal paperwork to put in place, along with micro-chipping, vaccinations, blood tests, etc, etc.  Then the transport has to be arranged.  A van with suitable cages for the animals, food supplies and water.   And then the long journey, accompanied by one person to every 5 animals,  through Turkey and Europe to the final destination.

One such journey took place last week, and 7 dogs and 1 cat were safely delivered to their owners or adopters/fosterers.  Here are just some of the photos from that trip.

Handsome Gumbo - From the beach in Gumbet where he was spotted by Mo who could not leave him.  He came to the TAG shelter until everything was arranged for his journey to the UK.

Elizabeth's Journey with TAG. Part 4 - Milas

Milas's Story

 

 

 I've just been out with Milas and Frodo for a toilet break. Milas is my foster girl. She comes to me for holidays and breaks and is a beautiful , young dog. She came across in the van with Zorro last November.

Karen picked up Milas as a very young pup . She was sitting in the middle of a road to nowhere- burning in the summer heat with no food or water. She had been deliberately abandoned and would undoubtedly have died without Karen's intervention. She was beside Milas, hence her name. She has the most expressive face and was at the TAG shelter - outside- where she sat at  the gate and busied herself with the outside  dogs, greeting visitors and Karen for a year and a half. She was adored by Karen.

A year and a half later and Milas is a beautiful golden and white spotted girl. She has great athleticism yet  has an easy , quiet temperament and loves people.  It hasn't been easy to get the right person for Milas - through no fault of her own. She is very loving  and gives herself completely to "her" person.

Milas landed up in  England but had to be moved quickly so Diana Gibson in Glasgow helped out and fostered her by taking her into her home. She was spoiled and petted which , by looking at Diana's photos, Milas loved. Unfortunately Diana had her Mum ill at that time so she came up to Aberdeen in the train with Milas and we met her in the station.

Because we had to get a perfect home for Milas ( after her various moves ) we went to the local paper where they did a piece on her and The New Arc - a wildlife Sanctuary near me- said to put their address on the piece with their telephone number  as they were used to finding good homes and could recognise time wasters. This we did and very quickly had two people - one through TAG and one from the paper. Because I needed to home check I took the nearest home - about 5 miles away - although the other home  near Inverness  was also perfect and they did get their own rescue dog.
 Milas is with Sebastian who, when he realised he would get her, set to work -erecting a 6 foot fence round his large garden so she could be free to run- in two weeks. I visit whenever I pass by and she adores him. " She is a blessing " was the last thing he said to me before going off on holiday. He also told me ," If I got the chance of the lottery win  or Milas , I would choose her every day." Sebastian has studied Milas and now thinks she is part Vizsla. He is a retired gentleman on his own and has all the time in the world for her and she adores him. She will be squeaking with joy when she sees him on Sunday.

This is what everyone in TAG wants-  a special home for each TAG dog where there is contact and we always hear how they are doing.

Fox and Pink - Available for Adoption

Fox and Pink

Siblings dumped at the TAG shelter.    Their brother Tas(Bear) was adopted.

 They are 6 months old now and we would love to find them forever homes. 

Super sweet little girls who love cuddles and the other dogs.

 If you are interested please contact us as we would love either a foster home in the UK until a home is found or a forever home and we will help with the costs via fundraising.

Miley - Available for adoption or fostering

Meet Miley.

She is a Husky mix who lived on the street in Yeslikent.    Miley has been fed by us since around 5 months old and we went every night to feed her on the streets.

We also had her spayed and then the complaints started,  so one night as usual we went to feed her and she was missing.  This was very  unlike Miley.   Karen asked around and was told that she had been taken to the  council pound in Didim. 

The very next day we got her straight out of there and she is now in private boarding as there is no room at the shelter.   

She is around 10 months old now and  she is the most placid dog ever.   Beautiful sky blue eyes; she has the sweetest nature and is a super softy.   

We can help fundraise to get her to the UK or if you can foster in the UK please contact us.  Thank you

Bodrum - Foster or Adoption needed

 

Meet Bodrum - He loves to be with people at all times;  he needs affection and love.  He is a free TAG dog and sadly has gone to the local village and stolen some shoes from people's balconies in the night and chewed them.

.He was caught in action and so at night he is being kenneled as he can clear the 6 foot fence easily and goes on shoe hunts.   Karen has been warned that this MUST stop or they will shoot him.  This is a serious threat.  

 Urgently looking for foster for him in Turkey and also the UK or a permanent home in the UK . Karen want to send him to the UK in a few months time.

 Interested,  please contact us.
