Dear Mark,
Dear Mark,
Could you please clarify whether the strays were sent to an animal rehoming centre (in this case, I have been told Rosedene, that merely sells the dogs) or a rescue organisation (ie one that assesses, neuters, vaccinates and gives life time back up)?
Yours sincerely,
Carla Bottle
Dear Carla,
I have spoken to the Cleansing Services Manager, and during the period you requested, we did use Rosedene Kennels for part of this period. When this site became unavailable, dogs were sent to boarding kennels in the meantime until a more permanent solution could be found.
Regards,
Mark
