Corrie is now called Curry

Little Curry was saved from being sent to a municipality pound when a place in a shelter was found for her. Now her life is perfect because she was adopted by a lovely family in Cyprus. As soon as the family picked her up from the shelter, she found her place in between the two boys in the back of the car. She felt at home from the first second she arrived at their house. Watching her in her new home, you can see how safe and relaxed she feels and how much she loves her new family. Her most important family members are her new brothers Till and Philip. She sleeps in their bedroom and would love to spend the whole day together with them if she could. She can’t understand why they go to school or kindergarten without her – she is ready to go with them! Till, her oldest brother, feeds her and takes her out for walks every day, which are always special moments for Curry. The whole family is in love with Curry and Curry with them, she is the spice in their life. It’s a very, very happy ending for this lovely little Curry. Related...

Benno was very lucky to have been found here in Cyprus. We reported here: Benno. Benno is now 13 days in the green Germany and he is very fine there. He has quickly settled in, seized every couch and amassed a huge stuffed animal collection. Now he can enjoy his young dog existence. He already obeys very well. The initial problems with the existing dog were quickly resolved. The family says: It’s just nice to have him here. Great news. Enjoy your new life Benno! Related...

Report Quiz Night 6th May 2014

A select and, obviously, very clever group of people honed their brains and sat ready with pens and paper on Tuesday 5th in Ayios Tychonas. We had seven teams taking part and the evening commenced with two table top quizzes for them to get their teeth into along with hamburger, chips and salad! The table top quiz must have been too easy because everyone did extremely well, with one team achieving 100%! Eamonn Quinn was the quiz master, with Julie assisting. Once the meal was over we got down to business. Apart from the table top quizzes there were 6 rounds of 10 questions each. The subjects ranged from History to Music. Some very easier than others it appeared! The scores were fairly even most of the way through the evening but ‘The Cobblers’ set up an early lead and held on to it all through the competition. For those of you reading who know anything about football you will understand why Eamonn (a life long Northampton Town supporter – The Cobblers) couldn’t help but be pleased and indeed shocked. The football team are known for not being able to hold on to a lead ever!!! Lesley Hey also ran a ‘pick a number’ sheet at one euro a go and there were 3 prizes at the end of the evening. It was a fun night and enjoyed by all. We thank Lesley for organising it and for the donation made from the evening to CyDRA. These events make such a difference to the welfare and homing of the dogs, so they send a big ‘THANK YOU LESLEY’ too! Related...

We urgently need Kongs or other robust toys for the puppies in the shelters

Our trainer team needs toys for the rescued puppies in the shelters. Especially Kong’s are robust, hygienic as can be easily washed/disinfected and reused in different kennels. In the shelter are so many puppies but not very many toys and not many toys that can be used with puppies and likewise with older dogs that are safe to leave in kennels. They can´t leave toys in the kennels with many of the dogs as there are not enough to do this safely. You need to have a high number of kong toys to leave in any one kennel to avoid any guarding/squabbling over toys. Puppies should not to live in a shelter. But we want to make them as comfortable as possible. If you want to donate a Kong or more, then please contact us via email: Info.Cydra@gmail.com Thank you very much, your CyDRA – Team Related...

Hi you out there. Yes, you see correctly. From the small timid Sheba a true diva has become.
