I have been in formed that a Turkish man threw an 8 year old rough border Collie (Lassie dog) out of his car near KAR.



This poor dog has such a beautiful nature and has gone from having a loving home to being dumped.



She is up at KAR at the moment completely shell-shocked and bewildered.



All she needs is to spend the rest of her days quietly in a loving home.



The vets have said she is healthy and just needs a home.



PLEASE, PLEASE can someone open their hearts to take this beautiful sad dog home as I don't think she will survive long at KAR under the stress.

One has to question the supposition the dog came from "having a loving home" if that loving home then chucks the animal out of a car to fend for herself, albeit near KAR!!!! How does one know she is "eight years old"? The fact she is well fed and healthy could mean there is more to this, thus far - anecdotal story. Perhaps she was stolen, and they changed their minds? or the owner has died and a relative couldn't/wouldn't take on the responsibility - a million and one possibilities to explore. Without questioning the perpetrator of the deed, one can't know anything. I do wish TRNC would INSIST on microchipping and if an animal changes hands, the micro chip - as a condition of change of ownership, brought up to date BEFORE the new owner can take charge. If it were made the law that all pets were to be microchipped by a certain date, and then a round up of animals take place, and any without a chip be destroyed, it would certainly concentrate the minds of irresponsible owners.

Ms Garnet, the point of my original posting is to find a new home for this loving dog.



I know the background and history of the dog and know that she was adopted by an English family with small children. The dog in her dotage, didn't like small children so she was given to a Turkish man. Say no more!



That's all.



We just need to to find her a home as she is suffering with shock and is bewildered.

This does not only happen in 'third world countries' One of the dogs we had for a long, long time in UK was thrown from a car and hit by another car. I just happended to be there at the time. There are B**st*rds like this everywhere in the world. I would dearly love to have a dog but my circumstances don't allow. I really hope this dog finds a home soon.

Could the Cyprus Today do a story in the hope that someone who isn't a member of 44 might want to give her a loving home?

Well done you! This lady deserves a chance in a loving home after what she has been through.



I adopted a rough collie aged 10 from Battersea Dog's Home and had her until a month away from her 17th birthday.......she will always have a special place in my heart and memory.

Missy would make a super companion to someone who could take her on.

I forgot to mention that the vets at Petcross said they would keep her there once or twice a week in the hope of getting her rehomed but they need someone to take her to and from KAR and take her to Petcross each time.



Any volunteers?



She would also be happier there on those days as she can play in the garden. Many thanks to Petcross for their wonderful offer of interim help.

With the Greatest respect...What about the other 200 or so KAR dogs without a home,distressed and lonely,do they take second place to an unfortunate "Possibly" identified Missy ?? Why aren't their pictures important enough for a" Cyprus Newspaper Centre Fold" ?One possibly known, re- homed Collie Doesn't make overly ecstatic..... There are hundreds of Missy's every day ...

I know that Martin (msg 31). As a point of interest, the dog that was dumped is definitely Missy - no mistake on that at all.



Secondly of course there are over 200 dogs at KAR but if we can at least rehome one, surely that is the point here.



Missy's original owner died of cancer and she has gone from pillar to post since then.



So lighten up and let's at least try and do some good for one little old lady!

Missy was adopted by an English family with young children.



She wasn't happy living with a young family.



She was then given to a Turkish man.

msg 38...I will forgive you obviously " ill mannered impassioned attitude" this once ,but are you aware that Welsh Collies and Children rarely mix when re-homed. Perhaps the Turkish Man had children,I am not excusing his behaviour at all ,but Missy is one of a multitude, and should be looked upon as such,instead of being impassioned about a dog" With" a name ,perhaps you should become universally impassioned with all stray dogs,God knows there are plenty of starving dogs "without" names, that deserve your degree of indulgence...We feed 6 stray dogs every day as well as 9 cats.....selective impassioned posts about one" Known" dog are heart-rending indeed , but do little to help the masses of starving animals out there....

I do not know the family that re-homed Missy, but on a previous thread they were appealing for someone to take on Missy as she had become snappy with the children in the family.

They came forward at the very last minute to give Missy a home, if they hadn't she was due to be put to sleep.



I am sure that they took Missy with all good intentions but it obviously it did not work out due to the problem with the children.



As previously stated I re-homed a rough collie from Battersea Dog's Home and at interview stage we were advised that due to her age it would not be wise to re-home her with young children.

The reason being was that although Collie's are very good with children she was an old lady (10 years old) and would not take kindly to young children at her time of life.



I hope someone will take Missy and give her a home...they really are lovely dog's.

I understand why they couldnt keep her if she was snappy with the children - BUT - you can keep them separate - I have 2 staffies and they are the most silliest dogs ever but I would never leave them alone with children - its the owners responsibility to see that through not the dogs?

He just loves people and is so soft. I agree with you it is down to the owners. However if they wanted a family pet then they would want the children to love it also. They things my graandkids do with their staffi beggars belief and the silly sod accepts that as the norm. He even plays football with them. I guess you need to have the dog whilst the kids are young xxxxxxxxx

Dear All, the story about Missy is not clear cut. When the original owner died his son Tom took Missy on. Tom then decided to go back to England and had to find a home for Missy. He had a count down on this forum showing hours and minutes to when she had to be put down. Pictures were shown and it was all very sad. Right at the last minute I said that I would take her as I could not see a happy dog being put down. We were informed that she got on brilliantly with children and we introduced her to our children and dogs we already own. She was not in a good state so we took her to the vets that informed us she had an awful ear infection and was generally not in a good state. We spent 100s of lira gettiing her better and all seemed well. Then she bit our son and started snapping at our dogs. We thought that maybe it was our childs fault and told them not to get to excited around missy as she was old. Then one day we were all sitting down quietly and she just snapped at one cont

of our children without any provecation so we knew we had to rehome her. We advertised on this forum and no one would take her, we contacted KAR and they said they would not have her. In the end she snapped again and on Monday we arranged for her to be put down. We asked a friend to take her as we could not watch her being put down and he agreed. Unbeknown to us he could not go through with having her killed and went to kar to see if they would take her no knowing that they had already said no! When they got there kar said no again so they decided to just leave her there so that they would have to!! Do not get me wrong we know that this is not write but were oblivious as we thought the deed had been done. Yesterday we went to the Greek side to come back to all of this and people judging us. Kar obviously knew that this was Missy and at no time tried to contact us telling us that this had happened they just decided to advertise it to the world. I have always given money to cont

kar in the past and am disgusted to think that they think we would have acted in this way. One phone call to us would have sorted this problem out. We will arrange again today to have her put down as there is no other solution but will not accept any judgement on this as no one else has stepped forward to help when we have obviously asked for it. We will not be doing any good deeds for a while and there are always two sides to every story. I would also like to point out that the turkish man in question did this for the right reasons even though wrong. Most would have left them up a mountain! Please excuse the spelling my lap top seems to have a mind of its own!

Maybe a few BTTTs..But it seems that she will now be put to sleep. bless her. Well done wiser for speaking up to enable the thread to have a clear picture.

Lydia,



I have followed Missy's story from the beginning (yes, I am one of those sad doggie fans in some people's eyes!!).

I commented on the previous thread that I thought you were a star for taking Missy on. I believed then and still do that you gave Missy a home with all good intentions and I admire you for it.

Although previous owners will tell you the habits of their beloved pet, in a different environment with people they don't know they can change.

I also know that there were concerns about Missy snapping and your children and several members advised that the dog should go as your children's safely had to come first.

You tried to re-home Missy on 44 but there was no response, so in the circumstances I think most people would understand that the kindest thing would be to put Missy to sleep. Not an easy decision and I am sure you and your family have been left heart broken with having to make this decision.

The events of yesterday were out of your control and I feel sad that the person who offered to take Missy to the vet did not contact you first and let you know their actions.



I am sure that Missy is feeling very confused with what she has had to endure of late and my personal view is that it is probably kinder to let her go peacefully....unless there is someone out there who comes forward at the last minute to offer her a home in an environment that would suit her.



Kind regards

KAR did not put any info on this forum about this dog. The thread was started by a board member - not KAR.

Missy is not at the Centre - she is staying with a foster carer who will continue to give her the medication that was prescribed, yesterday (at a cost to KAR), by the vet for her current ear and eye infections.

I assume that you will be contacting KAR to discuss Missy's future.

Hamish, thank you putting matters in perspective and at last getting the facts correct. Why do people on this board fly off in all directions with half truths and inuendo. Yes there are hundreds of dreadfully sorry cases all over the island but when I dog is given a "name" people start to become over emotional. We have 4 rescued street dogs and am currently feeding a dog which has clearly just had pups (I can't find them). The mother is virtually starving to death (you can almost see through her) in order to feed her pups and she has only just left puppy hood herself. If no-one comes forward to take her please let Missy have a peaceful end rather than being treated like a book in a lending library.

Like Puppylover I have followed the story of Missy from the outset when her original owner died and his son took her on and then rehomed her as he went back to the UK,I was elated when Wiser took her on but sadly it did not work out for Missy or Wiser and her family.Wiser please at least let Cyprus today do the article and hope that someone comes forward who will understand the needs of this old lady and care for her to the end of her days.A very upset Bigbadbob.

i hope Missy finds a home, and hope the relevant people involved ensure the NEW OWNER not another idot!!

..its unfair to the poor dog ......i dont suppose that these people that leave their animals, care who has them ....just that they are out of their hands?

Thats an unfair comment if you were to read the thread right it was found a home twice after its owner died..

The last one just dumped it and I am sure when it was given to they it was all in good faith.

"The last one just dumped it". Are you sure about that? Have you read the whole thread?

This is clearly a troubled, now because of her provenance - emotionally disturbed dog. I think it should be put to sleep. I am glad Wiser had the chance to put her side, and clearly she did all she could for Missy, financially, emotionally and in every way. I am also glad (as I suspected) the Turkish person is deemed to have done (in the circumstances) what he could - ie: dropping Missy off outside Kar, rather than dump her anywhere - maybe (we haven't his side) he was told the dog was fine with children, or she bit him - or.....who knows? There are ALWAYS so many sides to a story, yet hardly ever do all sides get told. Eight isn't old for a dog, but even if the dog goes to someone without children, unless the dog is to be housebound for the rest of its life, it must go out and about, and/or visitors will arrive, and it simply cannot now be trusted. That is no life for the dog or new owners. The person who never told Wiser they lied about taking her to the Vet, is NO friend.....

I found msg75 quite interesting but I do not totally agree with all the comments,it is well known that Missy cannot be trusted with young children and the new owners should be made aware of this and bear this in mind.Over the years I have owned many dogs and apart from the 2 we currently own they have all been rescue dogs and we have had problems to a degree with all of them but an experienced owner will work around them so I still say Give Missy a chance.

Well i can see the kangaroo court is out again on c44.where is this innocent before proven guilty you all keep talking about?.message 1 says she has a beautiful nature,wonder if they were planning on keeping quiet about the rest,it seems she attacks children for no apparent reason.no one knows why the man ''dumped''the dog at kar,maybe he or his kids were getting attacked too,were they suppose to wait till the dog made a serious attack on someone?he was probably worried.it seems they tried to get kar to take her on but nobody wanted to know.so what are the owners suppose to do?its obvious he didnt want the dog to come to any harm as he wouldnt of dumped it at kar.personally,i wouldnt take a dog on like that,what if it started attacking me or other people,who would help me then?kar dosnt want it.if i just go and leave her there cos i dont know what else to do,im classed as scum.i hope missy does have a happy ending and i do like animals but you have to put safety first

I would hope she has been laid to rest, and also that Wiser feels NO guilt whatsoever; having done all she could, and it would appear, the Turkish man was also taken advantage of, both had to think of themselves and their loved ones, and Missy herself was not to blame for how things panned out. Wiser has every right to name and shame the mendacious 'friend' who caused this entire mess - it was unconscionable.......

I think someone who knows what has happened to Missy should at Least let VRS-Dude know as she was his late father's dog and I think Iam right in saying he brought her here from the UK.
