YAPS Pet of the Week!
Ringo

Ringo is a male Staffy born June 1 2004. Ringo is six going on 2!! and thats in the nicest possible way. He might be more senior in years but has the engery of a younger dog.

Ringo loves being around his 2 two-legged people. His ideal family is one that will involve him in their activities.

4 Paws Pet of the week

Ringo use to be a YAPS dog but in August 2007 was rehomed to his "ideal" family. He was part of the crowd.. allowed to be an inside/outside dog.. he was very happy and settled.
Sadly his family had to move for work and were not allowed to have a dog where they were going.
They spent a few months looking for the right home for Ringo and they thought they had found it.. but obviously this was not the case.

Ringo got out and lost.. sadly no one came looking for him so now he is back at YAPS.

During his time at his last home it looks like something has spiked him in one of his eyes so he no longer has any sight in this eye but this does not worry him in the least.

Ringo will need a home where he is the only dog in the family and no cats please. Secure fencing is a must for Mr. Ringo...........

Please call YAPS on (07) 4057 6373 or Email YAPS

Mozza
Mozza

is a male Staffy X born June 17 1999

Now if you do not have a tissue handy perhaps you should get one before you read my story.

About 8 years ago I use to come to YAPS to board from time to time.. then one day no one came back for me.
I was absolutely devasted.

It was just around Xmas and this lovely lady came out to YAPS and said she would like to foster me over the Xmas holidays.. so off I went with her and we hit it off right away (and why not as I was my charming outgoing self!!)

For the past 8 years I have been loved and cared for so very well. I was soooooo happy.

Then one day just over a month ago my mom went out and never came back (she was killed in a motorcyle accident)

I waited at the house everyday for the past month for mom to come home to me but she didn't. I sat guarding the house making it safe for her return wondering where she was. Kind people came and fed me each day.. giving me a cuddle but it was just not the same without my mom being there.

Finally they decided I could no longer stay at the house by myself (I was very lonely) so they brought me back to YAPS.

I am heartbroken and asking myself why me?

Please Please someone help me.. give me a home and help mend my broken heart.

Love Mozza

This boy has been living at Yaps for months and months... as you walk by his kennel he will put his paw out through the door just trying to touch you and get your attention, all he wants is someone to pay some attention to him and let him be part of your life.
