Found Cairn - Updated |
A year to eighteen months, entire wheaten dog Cairn has been handed into a vets in Croydon. Lovely nature, not reliably house trained. Dew claws on front legs. He was found yesterday near Banstead woods. We am trying to get him handed over to CTRF but red tape might mean he goes to the Reigate dog warden. For more details- 020 8670

9/01/07 The dog warden
at Reigate has now re-homed the Cairn Terrier, who is believed to be around
10 months old. Both Chris Hewitt and myself have made numerous calls to
Reigate Council and have left messages for the Dog Warden to contact the
C.T.R.F since this was reported to us, but to no avail until today when
she contacted Chris Hewitt. Unfortunately
the Dog Warden would not release the Cairn to the C.T.R.F and declined their
help, however she did make a note of Chris's telephone number for future
reference. She informed Chris that she had a home for the Cairn, who is
believed to have strayed from a 'travellers' encampment sometime last
week. We understand
that the family who are re-homing him have not owned a Cairn Terrier before,
so help has been offered during the settling in process, as he is not yet
house trained!! The Dog Warden admitted that this isn't the first
Cairn that had come from the encampment and that she had dealt with several
'stray' Cairn x Border Terriers in the past. Hopefully this
little chap will settle in his new home without too
many problems. Chris Roberts Secretary CTRF |
