Description
Poor ‘Gobi’ scruffy little fella was found
starving & bewildered in a water station
taking shelter. He’s been helped now &
making his early debut to get a home ©
Meet ‘Gobi’ who is waiting to catch your
eye & capture your heart
Gobi as he is now christened (he was
nameless & faceless before) tells you
everything you need to know about him in
that woeful little face. It’s hard to look at
his dishevelled & malnourished form
without feeling a deep & profound sense
of pity. The strong emotions regarding
how he and so many like him come to be
in this state are not easily translated. The
hopeful yet resigned eyes, the bravery to
come forward against all the odds & all
that they could and should have been,
permeates your soul. A wickedness
brought Gobi to his lot in life through no
fault of his own. He’s just an infant boy of
around 2.5 yrs old that nobody thought
was worth anything. We know he is
priceless. Gobi was born in a country that
was likely to reject him for just being a
dog. Then one day his cruel owner
discarded him. This is the message our
charity received asking for our help:-
“Hi Leesa. A week ago, this poor dog was
abandoned in the countryside between two
villages. He's missing his fur in some
places. I hadn't seen him for three days.
Yesterday, I saw him find shelter in those
little houses outside the towns that have
water supplies for the villages. I think he
needs help. He's very thin, just skin, hair,
and bones. I don't know what I can do.”
“The dog is a young male of about 2 and a
half years old. Very good but a little
stressed. But he is social. I have not used
the trap cage.”
The lady who wrote to us has no space
currently & as we have new arrivals and
dogs we are trying to rescue also in a bad
way with not enough enclosures it was
challenging. There is always more every
day. I offered however to support & assist
with the rescue as there was barbed wire
stopping entry and I was prepared to climb
over. We agreed as a welfare that we would
home him which also helped the rescuer to
be able to find a temporary solution at a
municipality shelter based on our
assurances that we would ensure he leaves.
We are under enormous pressure already
trying to bring dogs in, rescue others and
help the ones in the government pounds but
we couldn’t leave Gobi to his inevitable fate.
He’s made progress bless his soul within
the confines of his ‘safe place’ the water
house with regular feeds from the Bulgarian
lady and building trust. He would have been
at risk of poisoning there or being scared
off once discovered.
He went straight to a vet after he was
rescued and all his tests show he’s in good
health. Clearly he was in poor shape
outwardly and we will get his coat, weight &
everything else where it needs to be. He’s
had a bath, groom & VIP treatment though
nothing that compares to the home that we
hope is waiting for him. Goby responds to
people, women, no issue with men, used to
cats being around, fine with other dogs &
can live with 1 to multiple people. He’s
adaptable & just lovely. He’s a quiet &
restful soul as well as being responsive &
cheerful to be around. The vet who ran his
tests & groomed him described him as a
‘good dog’ & said he’s ‘friendly’ & ‘just a
little timid’. What a petite and lovely lad. His
vulnerability is poignant. Gobi wins you over
quickly just by standing there because you
feel humbled, moved & endeared by his
spirit. The wretchedness they are brought
to leaves you shocked & upset. He instills
an empathy from his audience. The
impression he leaves can only be at peace
by knowing his future is mapped out. That’s
what we need you our prospective adopters
for. Be the person to look back into his
eyes, serve him Sunday roast and do dog
friendly cafe crawls. Be his first love, hand
him the only bone he will have had so far
and spoon in the night until the sun rises
Gobi needs you.
