Friends from the Italian Rhodesian Ridgeback Club (RRCI) have asked me for help. We have two rhodesian ridgeback to rehome: the 14 month old Momo and almost four years old Philippo. 

Momo is just over a year old rhodesian ridgeback. His owner got terminally ill, is in the hospital and, sadly, will never come back home again. Momo was placed in a shelter, but soon afterwards an owner`s relative showed up and took him home. Unfortunatelly she is not able to keep him permanently. Momo currently spends his day in her backyard and nights in the garage. He is confused, sad and need a friend to relate to, someone to be happy with, as soon as possible! 

Philippo is almost four years old, castrated and homeless because of a new baby in the family. He got jelaous and the owners couldn`t cope with it anymore. He ended up in a shelter. He is of a stable but strong temperament and he needs an experienced person who will accept him and include him in the family. For more information please contact me.  

The merry december has turned its page and we enterd the 2009. Vesele tačke wishes everybody a happy and successful new year!! This year, Sara was the messenger of our best wishes. (with a little help from us: Maja, Jure and Karmen printed the card (thank you!) and I wrote a few words on behalf of Sara). Besides the wishes the card is also a reminder of the still on-going experiments on animals, in this case - dogs.  

Sara, who really enjoyed the snow covered streets today, and ran around like she was at least ten years younger, was involved in experiments. Even though, at least not that I am aware of, the experiments on dogs do not exist anymore in Slovenia, I found an ad in a german dog magazine, while I was waiting at the Frankfurt airport, about the rehoming of the former laboratory beagles.  When I arrived home, I opened the internet right away and checked the internet site right away. I found out, that Tiere in Not Ennepetal e. V. (1) was founded by a small group of people, who have put all their energies in rehoming mostly dogs (but also a small percentage of other animals) formerly involved in laboratory testing.
