This was Leonardo just 10 days ago when we rescued him. He was in absolute agony. That has changed… (1/2)

Snickers the kindest dog I've ever met. Her gifts landed her a home. This is a behind the scenes look at what we do on the streets of Thailand youtu.be/9DFHn4q0_Yg?...

Another book recommendation: People Who Like Dogs Like People Who Like Dogs by Nick Duerden. a heart-warming, spirit-raising read about the random relationships forged walking a dog. A brilliantly observed celebration of life in all its eccentricity, it will strike a chord with all of us dog lovers.

Ewen McGregor talk to Graham Norton about revealing a bit more than planned during his What The Butler Saw stint🤣 @catherinerussell.bsky.social @alipurplequeen.bsky.social @clairehaywardq1.bsky.social @luckyladyinstepney.bsky.social @suevickersthompson.bsky.social www.facebook.com/reel/2240740...

Urgent appeal for a lawyer for Buster. He's in big trouble and has been falsely accused

Roo needed to get some shopping done last night…. #lol #cat #oops

Mr Fox is the 3rd dog I ever started feeding in Thailand. He lived on his own in the jungle but loved all humans. His greetings were always the best. I still can’t believe when footage of him in his new home comes through…. (1/6)

Ooh @rorycj.bsky.social @dianecoyle1859.bsky.social - I don't suppose #SophieFromRomania and her parents might like to help doodle/make a bookmark!? I'm sure it would be ever so popular with Sophie fans! @shattersley.bsky.social

While I love a good old fashioned book that you can sit turning the pages... I do read certain books on the kindle app (with the odd added audible copy to read along with me- @niallharbison.bsky.social & @rorycj.bsky.social!) Just discovered theres a dyslexic font @catherinerussell.bsky.social !

This was me 4 years ago. I was in hospital as I’d just nearly drunk myself to death. I’d been an alcoholic and suffered from depression and anxiety for 25 years. I’m completely sober now and wanted to share some learnings that may help someone (1/8) 🧵

Saw this and thought of your hidden treasure @catherinerussell.bsky.social www.facebook.com/reel/1412705...

Thanks to all my wonderful Hastings pals old and new who came out to support us at Flight Feathers - Out Of The Ashes Poetry night last Saturday. After months in a personal hermit state in deep recovery from acute illness, It was fab to be back. Thanks to all who bought books too. MORE NEWS SHORTLY

This is a great idea! ♻️🗑️🚮 @catherinerussell.bsky.social (perhaps your local council could do with this 🙄) @alipurplequeen.bsky.social @suevickersthompson.bsky.social @clairehaywardq1.bsky.social @marion1932.bsky.social www.facebook.com/swedense/vid...

What a difference 4 days makes for little Leonardo ❤️

Update from Bowie the husky who we rehomed from Thailand to Germany. Her owners took her out for a pee at night and she is refusing to come back in because she loves the snow so much. 🥰🥰🥰

Some dramatic new arrivals in the last 36 hours. Including Leonardo’s sister… youtu.be/O0N7hWGy8XE?...

We rescued little Leonardo on Monday. Just 6 days ago. We’ve been helping him rebuild his life. You won’t believe how good he is looking today… (1/6) 🧵

When you’re pretty sure mama has no plans to get out of bed any time soon… 🤨 #cats #BlueskyCats #caturday

Rufus was such a wonderful cat, he was so lucky to have been loved so well in the twilight of his life. Please adopt senior pets. When their bodies are tired & don’t work so well, their coats are a little scrungly, they don’t have that wild baby energy or the brightest eyes, they still love SO much.

Another fab shot by @carlbovisnature.bsky.social If you're a fan of birds give him a follow! #Birds 🤍

Look at her enjoying every single second of the snow!

Hurrah at 12:01 my notification went off to tell me that @sociabledog.bsky.social's new book was finally released & sat waiting for me to read on the kindle! As you'll hear below it includes #SophieFromRomania @rorycj.bsky.social & @dianecoyle1859.bsky.social's rescue! (I'll be having audio too!)

Love this! 🥰 @carlbovisnature.bsky.social @clairehaywardq1.bsky.social @suevickersthompson.bsky.social @marion1932.bsky.social @alipurplequeen.bsky.social @catherinerussell.bsky.social www.facebook.com/groups/Garde...

Nice catch Diane. Enjoyed this interview but hadn’t realised it was up. …. Winston was a Rhodesian Ridgeback btw and adorable too.

Oh my goodness , I’ve just realised that I’ve now been TikTok-ing for a year, and this is still the video that got the most views. What is it about hair?! vm.tiktok.com/ZNd1egrRQ/

A nice romp around her pal Juno’s garden and a play fight for #sophiefromromania - had quite a job to persuade her to come home afterwards

When you're a Nuthatch, you don't have to land on the muddy ground to reach the suet pellets... 😁😀 Taken recently at Swell Wood in Somerset. 🐦 #Birds 🪶

Robin at Cadman's Pool in the New Forest on Saturday. #Birds #UKWildlife

We have a new rescue today. He is a little puppy in a very bad way. Luckily his life has already started to turn around. This is little Leonardo’s story… (1/8) 🧵

This blue jay still has half of its baby feathers.

It never ceases to amaze me how these dogs can make comebacks. Lady has a whole new life with lovely Jamie who took her in. Look how fluffy she is

Myself and Kerry just visited the vets and got the final all clear for her operation tomorrow. It’s a big one and we are both nervous but hopeful. Please keep everything crossed 🤞 for Kerry (1/7) 🧵

Donut has been with us since early December. A car had reversed over her and wrecked her back. She was alone on the streets Today she is back running… (1/6) 🧵

A huge wave of good news from the dogs. Hopefully gives you all a lift 🥰 open.substack.com/pub/niallhar...

My favorite street dog rescue of all time is without a doubt Shaq. This photo I was sent was the first I knew of him. I saw the mass growing out of his neck and had to go get him immediately. His recovery has been incredible and yesterday I went to visit him (1/10)

The Blue Jay is known as a Noisy Bully with a high-pitched squeal. It can imitate loud hawk cries & uses this to drive competitors from the feeders. Sometimes they have a soft and quiet song imitating the sounds of songbirds. If captive they can easily imitate human speech🪶📸 by Alexsander BB

“Where’s today’s #sophiefromromania pic?” The Prof texts me from Cambridge. Here she is digging her heels in on this morning’s walk, which nevertheless was quite a decent outing. (being Sophie‘s agent is tough work!)
