Eleanor

One of four dogs rescued from the City Pound on Christmas Eve 2021, Eleanor is a fun-loving and affectionate girl. Clearly part-Sharpei, part something else, once spayed, she will be ready for adoption.

Eleanor's Story

Through the generosity of many donors, sponsors and adopters, and the support of Robinson's Mall Dumaguete, who hosted us for four weekends leading up to Christmas, we had the funds and space to empty the City Pound of unwanted dogs and captured strays.

Sadly, surrendered pets, or strays caught by the authorities in Dumaguete have little time at the Pound during which owners can claim them, or new homes found.

We decided to empty the Pound on Christmas Eve 2021, and Eleanor was one of four dogs we found. Part-Sharpei, part something else, she was tied up outside the Pound when we arrived. Clearly the owner had given up on her for reasons unknown.

Lottie, Eleanor and Natalie in particular were delighted to be taken away, although little Amelia was very quiet and subdued. They all soon adapted to their new surroundings. They were checked for Distemper, and were found to be clear, so they will all be spayed in preparation for their new forever homes.
