We are staying in Edremit near Yamac Sokak and a small very friendly and well behaved dog just turned up 5 days ago.. It's a lovely little dog and has a red harness on. We've taken it to the vets and it's not microchipped unfortunately..
It seems like it's someone's dog as its house trained, very good with children. it is very good in the car, never makes a mess and is no trouble. Only thing is we are going home soon. I think there might be someone frantically looking for this obviously well looked after pet. Its well groomed and looks like it's been recently taken for a trim. We've tried asking around but nobody seems to know who's it is.
See photograph attached of the little fella.
Anbody know anything please get it touch or ring 0533 875 1257

Did it have the red harness on when it arrived, or is that your addition?

It had the red harness on it when it arrived

Ok, thanks, I'll pass the word around, it sounds as though someone will be missing it!

Thanks Keith. Be a shame if we didn't find his owners

Make sure you contact KAR and they will put the dog on their FOUND page with all the details and a contact number. Certainly doesn't appear to be a proper stray. Can you make up a poster and photo of some sort and put it in the local shop. If it has an expat owner it would almost certainly be microchipped so your looking for a local I would say. KAR would certainly ask if its male or Female and if male, is he intact. Good luck,

You have jumped in before me with the Male or female thing, but it still helps to know if he is intact. If he is then he could have travelled a long way if there is a female on heat in your area,

Yes he is intact and KAR said there was nothing they could do and to ring the Beladiyesi

Hi - if you are on Facebook please contact:

Kibris Hayvan Haklari Dernegi
Altin Patiler Dernegi.

If you send them a message and photo etc they will post and this will get a lot of coverage...

OK will do

Just to add, I've posted it on my facebook page, although that will only reach my own contacts, but also shared it with the 'Hope for Pets' Group page, which should reach a wider audience.

Best to add any groups that might spread the message!

Thanks

When you say KAR said "there is nothing they can do - ring beledere" - maybe it was that they cannot take the dog from you (for reasons all reported over previous months ) BUT if you send them a photo and details they will post it on their FB page - alternatively contact their FB page direct. They often have lost/found animals showing on there.
Good luck

Keith were you able to copy the pic to fb, I tried but failed. A friend who lives in Edremit thinks from my description this is an owned dog that is allowed to roam...…..

Hi, Yes, I also shared it to the Hope4Pets group -

If the poor little love is allowed to run around free in this weather then the owners do not deserve to have a dog. Probably leave it all day when at work, or its stuck out at night. Shame!!

Thanks Keith, sadly it is not the same dog...… the only other suggestion is Girne Belediyese shelter. I don't believe a small dog belongs there though

I totally agree Cally the Belediye Centre is not the place for a dog like that, If my information is correct, they are full in any case as they don't take as many as some people think, but of course it could vary from day to day. Perhaps H 4 P or one of the other animal welfare organisation can find someone to foster until a forever home is found? I don't do FB myself.

Now safe in KAR foster care.

Fabulous. Obviously no-one has come forward. Maybe its yet another student who has dumped him. Close enough to their accommodation for that.

The dog is now in foster care with a volunteer from KAR. Hopefully he can be reunited with his owner. If not they will find a responsible owner and good home for him.. I don't think he'll be without a permanent home for long as he's a beautiful little dog. So a happy ending for him.
