I realise you guys probably get a million requests. And I would adopt her if I could (problem is I’m an American here on a student visa in a no dog apartment..). This adorable dog Demi (above) is going to be put down today if no one takes her. I’ve worked Huskies in the past as a dog walker. They’re very smart dogs with excellent temperaments. Would you mind sharing this? Maybe someone might recognise Demi or there might be someone willing and able to take her.

We don’t normally do this.

But.

I was hoping you could post about this lovely dog we found outside our house – James’ Walk, Rialto, Dublin 8 – this morning [Friday, December 28] and see if there’s an owner we could reunite it with.
It’s a medium sized black and white dog, looks like it could be part collie. It has distinctive freckle-like black spots on its muzzle and feet. It’s very friendly, was found running around on the road so has no road sense, and responds to ‘sit’ so we think it could be a pet (no collar though).

 

Anyone?

Tonight, thank God, it’s her Yaris instead of your Yaris.

I know you don’t normally do this but since it’s Christmas…my [Toyota] Yaris (above) was stolen on Saturday in Cluain Riocaird, Galway.

It stands out for two reasons: 1: It is semi automatic – has no clutch but has gears! It has a sunroof  (Yaris normally don’t) Also the hubcaps are not on it.

 

Anyone?

Last night, my bike was stolen from just around the corner of my favourite pub in the world, Humphrey’s of Ranelagh,{Dublin].
I understand at this stage you guys must get one of these emails a day, if not more. However, I would really REALLY appreciate it if you could help me out this once.
At 9:30 last night  20th December, I locked my bike on Ashfield Road just off the main drag of Ranelagh. I returned after a pint and a half to go home, and it was gone.
In a time when so many friends are leaving for London, South America, Australia, Canada and beyond, my bike has been my companion. If anyone happens across a LaPierre Audacio 200 (above)  in the coming days, I will buy it off you and follow that with the best hug I can possibly give. I just want my bike back. One love.

Sabrina Ryan sez:

I found this puppy on the Oscar Traynor Road (Coolock/Santry) earlier today playing chicken with the cars. The poor thing is terrified and is also in heat. I brought her the vet in Santry (anicare) on the Swords Road and they will keep her for a day. If no one claims her she will be sent to the pound. I hate to think of some kid missing their dog particularly just before Christmas.

So, it would be awesome if you guys could put up these pictures in the hope someone recognises their dog.

 

Anyone?

know you don’t normally do this” but this lovely dog has been hanging around our house in Salthill, Galway, since Friday evening (15th).
He’s a male Collie, about 2 years old. He’s really friendly, obedient and playful. Responds to sit, lie down and rollover. Because of all these factors we think he must be somebody’s pet and we would love to get him back to them.
He doesn’t have a collar or chip, unfortunately. If anyone recognises him they can get in contact with us via Facebook here..
The vet told us that he could walk 15 miles in a day without much problem so he could be from anywhere around Galway.
