Nelly's dog attack journey ❤️

[UncleBob]

I think Kate (Beanwood) mentioned this at some point but perhaps a local newspaper might be interested in running an article about what happened to poor Nelly. That may encourage the owner to do the right thing - and if it doesn't it may at least help to identify her for a civil claim.

I am appalled that she cannot be made to pay. Surely her conscience (sp!) would make her pay, she did say she would have to get a loan, so she should get a loan. Why should innocent Kate have to pay the vet for the appalling damage her dog has done to dear Nelly.

Unfortunately some people do not care.

Thank you all, for your love, support and donations . I cant begin to say how much I dislike asking for help but this has come out of the blue for us . @Jen is right , Police cannot pursue payments , all they can do is to visit the owners and tell them that the dog must be kept on lead and muzzled in public . We are both worried terribly about little Nelly , but she has eaten some cold meat this evening , not a lot but its something and bless her, she asks to go out for a wobbly wee . If we can knock this infection , we can relax a little although she may well need more surgery on the wounds . Sue hopes that they may heal by secondary intention so fingers crossed . We are back at the Vets on Wednesday . Thank you again , not just for donating but for support, it means the world xxxx

Exactly what Candy has written, Kate.

 

[MrChew]

Yes, it's no trouble at all.

Oh friends , the friend of the mastiff owner has messaged me with the full name of the owner ! She says she hates what her friend has done and can no longer keep her as a friend . So , I have found her profile , , she is local and so I will contact the police tomorrow , at least there will be some justice for Nelly xxx Obviously, although its tempting , I am not contacting her myself , it would alert her to the fact that I know her name etc .I`ll leave it to the Police to visit . Ironic though , that she says she cant pay, but as well as owning this damned dog , she also breeds French Bulldogs and currently has some for sale, humm xxx

I am so glad that her ‘friend’ has contacted you and given you her details. Can’t believe she has puppies for sale with the mastiff at the same house! She should make enough from the sale of the pups to pay the costs for Nelly.
I am glad Nelly has eaten tiny bits. I expect the shock will impact her eating. I am keeping everything crossed for her xx

She says she hates what her friend has done and can no longer keep her as a friend .

Someone doing the right thing at last. This is good news.

[kateincornwall]

Thanks to whoever edited out the womans name , I never thought xx

 

[MrChew]

I'm glad the friend has done the right thing. And definitely best for you to just let the police take care of it.

I am so glad that her ‘friend’ has contacted you and given you her details.

Glad she has done the right thing Kate Pleased that little Nellie has eaten something, keep the faith

 

[Lisa]

Keeping you all in my prayers. Glad that there is progress in finding out this person’s identity. Hope you are able to get some rest in the midst of all this, Kate. Please take it easy.

 

[Atemas]

At least ‘the friend’ has a conscience and has done the right thing. None of this takes away from poor Nelly and I am pleased she has eaten a little. Hoping today finds you all a little stronger

 

[Cath]

Hope you got some sleep Kate @kateincornwall . How is Miss Nellie this morning x

 

[kateincornwall]

Good morning Cath, not a good night I`m afraid . Nelly is very unsettled this morning , she has her morning medication soon and hopefully the pain meds will kick in and have her more rested xx

 

[Cath]

So sorry Kate. If you can try and get a bit of sleep even if its just a cat nap in the chair.
Hope Nellie meds kick in soon x

 

[Selina27]

So very pleased to read that the attacking dogs owner has now been named and her friend has done the right thing.

I hope by now that the meds have kicked in and Nelly is starting to feel better. xxxx

 

[kateincornwall]

She has been out in the garden on lead for a wee and a poo , eaten a very tiny bit of forthglade wet food , drink of water and has gone to sleep x

 

[Selina27]

we will do whatever we can to help and support you through this difficult time

Yep, we're in this together Kate xx
