I WRITE to you from Longview Animal Centre, Division Lane, Blackpool. It is my home.

Some of us are old, and some of us are just starting out in life.

The staff here are wonderful and we are fed regularly and walked and made to feel really special -- some of us even are nursed back to health.

But there is a rumour going round these kennels that our carers have run out of money -- and it is quite serious!

Yesterday one of my friends was rescued and last week some kind person adopted my kennel-mate, but so many of us remain and new friends are arriving every day -- more mouths to feed, more needs to attend.

PLEASE HELP US through your paper. Time is running out for us. Please give a dog a home!

A Dog,

Longview Rescue Centre,

Blackpool.
