Finally�he�s Called �Darwin�, A Story From July 2006

In July 2006, long before I started AnimalCare, I helped some rescuers in the Puchong dogpound rescue where we took out about 40 dogs due for mass euthanasia in one afternoon. I enlisted the help of my brother-in-law to use his lorry for the transportation.

These dogs were all sent to the Ti-Ratana Welfare Home and another group of people took over from there.

One of these dogs needed amputation and I raised RM1000 for the procedure and was told the dog was later transported to a no-kill animal sanctuary in Langkawi. I never really got to see the dog at all, there were no receipts or photographs and no news about him after that from the group but I was told that the dog was transported by flight to the island.

All these years, I had often wondered about that dog.

Today, I happened to ask Narelle McMurtrie of LASSie if such and such a dog was still there, sent in in 2006.

The next thing you know, she sent me this…

This is Darwin, the dog whose surgery and transport we sponsored way back in 2006.

Hi Darwin!! Glad to see you so well!

Thank you, Narelle.
