Tilly n Jack....The next stage.......................

Dear friends,

Some of you will have read about our anipals Tilly n Jack and their mummy ''Dot'',......their story is real and upsetting so anything you can do to help them to their next stage in life will means so much to them. Even when they are down and scared as to how they are going to pay a bill or get dog food they are the most wonderful pals and Dot herself is the loveliest lady you could speak to.....everyone deserves a second chance don't they ?
Both Tilly and Jack were rescued by Second chances Canine Program....they have their own FaceBook page...for more information, they are JacknTilly Campbell.....but here is a snapshot of them.

Tilly is a little sweetheart, she is very tender and laughing every minute. she is 1/2 Cattledog and 1/2 Back Lab.

She is cute, funny, and full of love. Jack is blind in his right eye and they found him as a stray going through dumpsters to find food. He was getting cabin fever for being a rescue for most his life...he was nearly two when Dot adopted him... he has such spirit and love to give. And his eye doesn't stop him although he play's fetch a bit differently to help him out being blind in 1 eye.

Tilly taught him how to walk up steps. Everyone who meets them says how loving and kind and sweet they are and well mannered. If they go to shelter they will be immediately put down. Some mistake Tilly for a pit bull and with Jack's blindness they would just put him down. Jack has the biggest smile in the world.. and if you just pet him once he is velcro to you. Very much a snuggler and Tilly is the kisser. they both are so fantastic and so loving and caring Dot feels truly blessed.
Sooooo they have come from a frightening and abusive relationship and have been tracked down before so all have new names.....Dot has to take medication for the effects of the beatings and were close to being kicked out by their landlord who had tricked them with the rental agreement but they can now move out and into assisted housing.......if you follow our chip-in link it tells you more about their update. They still have their food stamps but are not allowed to use them for dog food and dog meds that Tilly n Jack need. When they have moved to their new home Dot will look for part-time work as she does want to be independant and responsible for her little family so lets dig deap and help them on the next stage of their journey.
They are tired,its been a long and hard journey but they can now start to see light at the end of the tunnel and they know and appreciate they could not have gotten to this next stage without all of your help and we all send our heartfelt thanks for the donations and help given.They are still pinching themselves that there are people out there not just in another town but another country willing to not just donate but also be their friend.
For those that have donated we thank you so much as this enabled them to stay housed in October, this new fund is to cover their move to assisted housing along with medications & food for the dogs and their Mom .......... their new focus is moving and setting up a safe & secure home and their mom will then start to look for part-time work to become independant but is still recovering from her injuries and surgery due to her abuser so is still fragile but tenacious and each week makes steps on her own to gain her independance for herself and her dogs......Please help.
