View Full Version : Sheffield Dog Pound In Need Of Blankets namz 30-12-2008, 22:00 i am putting this plea out on behalf of the dogs at the doggy pound...please if you have anything spare at all, blanket,towels etc. the dogs would be very grateful thankyou Rainrescue 01-01-2009, 00:32 Can anyone find any more blankets or sheet or jumpers - bedding or sleeping bags? Over the few days holiday - if they could call into local charity shops to find any? It doesn't take long stood outside in these -3 degrees to know what it must be like for the dogs in kennels without a warm blanket. Please try to find some - or do any of you know where we could find a rag and bone type company where we could buy some blankets/ sleeping bags from?

If you can't find it love, let me know and I'll get in touch with her. Am taking blankets etc down to pound on Monday from S11 if anyone wants anything taking x lyndix 02-01-2009, 14:48 I took 2 black bags full today, left them outside, is that ok? geckoqueen 02-01-2009, 15:16 As well as the igloo I just posted about, which would probably get trashed quite quickly in a kennel, I also have a blue fleece blanket, 2 large cotton sheets, one thicker than the other (but with paint on them) and 1/2 bag of Baker's dog food. Can anyone collect from City Rd (and would they be kind enough to take some shredded paper to Jeddi_Warrior for me?) Thanks vikki 02-01-2009, 15:23 i have a old double quilt and 2 pillows if they would help? if they would is anybody able to collect from stannington? vikki 02-01-2009, 15:25 does anybody have a poster done i could maybe pop one up at work and maybe in stannington village boards i am happy to be a go between but i dont drive so if people at work do have stuff i could get them to bring it if someone else could collect? vikki 02-01-2009, 16:12 i will be offline soon and not sure when i will be able to get back on line if anybody can collect the duvet i have from liberty place in stannington i will PM my mobile number to Magsie now and im happy for it to be passed on. i also have a plastic bed that has been nibbled around the edges would this be any use? Adz 02-01-2009, 19:08 We are going to the pound tom and are in S13 if anyone has anything for me to collect let me know and we can go on our way so about 1ish. Also i am leaflet dropping my neighbours on my street to appeal for bedding for the pound and i hope they will have a few things we can take. Just an idea for trying to find stuff. JinxSta 02-01-2009, 20:28 The dogs will appreciate that very much Adz. Thanks for everyones help, the response has been fantastic magsie 02-01-2009, 20:42 Am collecting Geckoqueen's. Vikki, if you pm me your address I'll collect Sunday lunchtime. Leave outside your house if you're going out, thanks. Am going to pound on Monday. Just to repeat - quilts/pillows need to be non-feathers. Thanks again x namz 02-01-2009, 21:17 thanx guys this is great!!!!! Strix 02-01-2009, 22:19 Lyndyx - your's must be the two bags I saw when I went in to do pics today, so yep, leaving them outside works. If possible, leave a message on one of the phonelines so somebody knows to come out and get it ;) I took down a bundle of fleece tops and sweatshirts I'd cut all the buttons, eyelets, zips and cords off. As a rule they don't usually want clothing as it's full of buttons and things dogs can choke on, but I was alarmed at how empty their bedding cupboard currently is! We're currently making enquiries with textile recyclers, but wheels turn slowly, so any suitable textiles that people can drop off in the next week would be greatly appreciated We really could do with some fixed collection points too Rubydazzler owns the shop called unit1 on Woodseats and has previously volunteered to be a drop off point. I think Lotti's shop has been offered too |
