Rufus - Not all dog parks are safe.


Rufus, dressed up as an angel for our Christmas party winning the first prize.

So sad the hear that he has died.

 My friend Patricia and Tim did all the right things for Rufus and he could not have had better or more responsible owners. Rufus went to dog training classes every week where he was a great favourite with all the other dogs and owners, he was so happy, everyone loved him.

Patricia and Tim were loving protective owners so everything they did was for Rufus to enjoy his life. Taking him to dog parks was one thing you think would keep him safe, it didn't. They took him to a dog park in Rivera where he picked up a poison that is meant for killing snails, it killed Rufus.

Rufus was such a beautiful dog, so full of life and so loved it should not have happened but did. I am not sure how we protect our dogs especially mine who are rescue dogs used to scavenging.

It has been a month now since Rufus died but I still worry when I let my dogs off the lead to run.
