Posted: Sat Sep 15, 2007 9:25 pm Post subject: Tamba Appeal - UPDATE Page 30
Firstly I would like to say a huge thank you to Vicki (daisydoggy) for highlighting poor Tamba's plight to us. I am sure that when she gets to meet him he will give her a huge sloppy kiss
When Vicki sent me the link on messenger to watch Tamba's video, I could barely watch it. My reasons for this are not only that watching a dog suffering is unbarable but that had I listened to my vet when Keira was diagnosed with HD at 4 1/2 months old by the time she was 6 months old, she would have been much as Tamba is now.
Tamba is just 6 months old. He can barely stand and will does need extensive treatment. Please take time to watch Tamba's video, it is difficult to get to the end as it is heart wrenching. Tamba can barely stand - he crawls on his belly or simply gets up only to collapse after a little while.
It is to these hearts that are being wrenched that we are appealing to.
We are fundraising for Tamba to be able to have surgery to give him the best possible life he can. Sylvia from Many Tears has seen a specialist with Tamba who has advised that surgery is possible, but obviously this comes at a high cost, even reduced for such a fanastic rescue centre.
So please, dig deep, no amount is too small, every little bit will help.
If you would like to donate you can make payments by Paypal to me at rollandjo@hotmail.com. If you do not use Paypal, but would like to donate something, please PM me and I will give you my address for you to send a cheque or postal order to me.
I will give daily updates on how much we are up to, so if anyone knows if I could use the ticker thingie for that, please let me know
I know that there are many many poor souls out there needing our help, but Tamba's condition is one very close to the hearts of many Labrador owners too.
Look into these eyes..................
How can you not
Please help us, help Tamba to have a life as good as our furbabies enjoy
Thank you all so very much.
PS. I have started a spreadsheet so that all donations are recorded by name and amount, I will copy and paste the names so that you all know your payments are accounted for.

I remember when Vicky (VJH) did the fundraising for the sponsoring of some pups at Many tears she kept the money in her account and waited til there was enough so that Paypal didn`t take any for themselves, maybe this would be good for this appeal as well, so that Tamba gets as juch of the money as possible
