A manic weekend.

The weather was pretty stormy last week so we expected more calls for pups in distress and we were very busy. First pup arrived on saturday afternoon. He came from Sandwick beach near Thurso, he was a thin white coat pup and sadly had to be put to sleep.He had been born without eyes and could not be rehabliltated and put back to the wild so the ethical desision was to let him go.

The next call was for a weaned pup on Scrabster beach. Pup is a tiny 10.7kg and short in length, although she's tiny she is a fiesty girl and is progressing very well. Initially on fliuds for 24hr she is eating herring very well.We named her Poppy which seemed fitting as is was Rememberance Sunday.

Great to see her eyes all cleaned and she couldnt be in safer hands.
