Roxy, our merlequin rescue bitch is where it all started. A call from our local animal welfare, requesting a loving home, for a Great Dane that had been severely traumatised due to being stabbed several times in the back saw us snap in to action. We immediately went down to see her and fell in love with her as soon as she walked out. She was thin, scared and very unsure of what was going to happen next. Two hours later we had her tucked up in our hill top villa, her own bed and the commencement of her very own routine. She is just adourable now, so very protective of all those around her, yet at the same time as gentle as a lamb. She is very intelligent, very affectionate and knows how to win us over if ever she needs to get away with anything. She has turned our lives around, it has been a pleasure to give her love, security and a home she knows she is safe in and she will always be our number one Great Dane, even though we could never show her or ever let her have pups. As for the animal welfare, we are eternally grateful for this introduction they gave us and we have continually shown our gratitude by donating a years salary of both myself and my partner Craig for the recognition and hard work they show towards animals in need. We hoped this would help towards the building of the new shelter here in Paphos of which fund raising is ongoing.
