We are making the shelter sensory, we are very exited about this as it will eventually help the dogs when they are homed. work in progress.
1, We are painting the barrels and play tyres so the dogs have visual stimulants.
2, We are wearing hats of all kinds after two of our long term residents were worried about my black cap!
3, We are making steps & a ramp (work in progress) for all 3 runs & will paint them. Some of the shelter dogs will not walk up the steps at the vet/clinic.
4, We will make a half open door way, static and stable so they can run through. Some dogs have never seen solid doors.
5, We have a large plastic barrel (half of a Barrel) donated by the work man. We will dig and place the barrel in the ground for water play. We have quite a few water babies plus it will be a way to cool down through the summer. The work man will keep his eyes open for another large plastic barrel for us.
6, Aristo (hubby) will bring us two battery power radios. We used to have a radio there but we have grown now so we need at least 2. Soothing music will be played when we have storms, fireworks etc.
7, Motion solar lights will be put up as the ones we have now have finally given in to the weather.
8, We HOPE to use a fenced, secure piece of land IN the village for lead walking and meet and greet the villagers. I have found the spot just need to persuade the owner to let us use the space. (fingers crossed for this one!)
