Paul O Grady - rehomes

How about This Morning or a similar show, they're usually quite good with things like that? Worth a shot perhaps?

Dizzy makes me so sad, he looks like such a lovely lad with no where to go.

thats a good idea - totally nationwide coverage

Just in the middle of sending them (This Morning) an email and my pc wiped it!
Will have a go tomorrow though, see what reply we get. Can't hurt can it?

Paul O'Grady no longer has his show on ITV, would've been handy though.

Although Richard Hammond now does it and he's a big dog lover so there's a chance we could do something there too?
I'll see what I can do in the morning, have to walk doggies and go to bed now!

In reference to dizzy what about pet rescue they put an animal on there and they get hundreds of calls. I often think though if all those people have called about one dog why cant the unsuccessfull people go to a home and give a home to some other poor dog think of the dent it would make if several programmes worth of people applied elsewhere. I wanted Sasha but Morgan has developed some issues lately that has made me rethink at least for the moment anyway until he gets over them. Bonnie would love to have an ally to help her fend off morgans boystous behaviour but not sure an old dog is the answere ive yet to come across anything to wear him out.
When pet rescue was first started i thought that each week they would have several dogs stories features and appeals but its more about the actual rescue societies.My idea would have made the better programme. I think it must be harder to rehome staffs as they often have to be the only dog in a home and most people have multiple dogs or at least one already.

You have a very valid point Morgandy - I've often thought that myself when they say "we've had hundreds of calls" about one appeal, it is such a shame they don't refer all these callers on to other rescue centres who have lots of dogs who are just aching for a new home, it seems a senseless waste of time to just let such an opportunity go amiss.

Pet Rescue and appeals like the ones in The Sun newspaper must generate huge amounts of interest and yet they don't seem to filter these people down to local rescue centres who do not have the resources to pay for such appeals. Big shame

Since pet rescue was originally on channel 4 i thought that it was just repeats that were on animal planet. Can anyone tell me if it is a new series on animal planet?

Cuzball, I have no idea sorry. Maybe someone else may know?

Anyway, as for Dizzy's appeal. Wonderful ideas.

Ripsnorterthe2nd is going to email this morning show, so fingers crossed they may do something about him on there.

I agree though that many of these TV appeals could point people in other rescue's directions.

any news from this morning?
