Barnsley Animal Rescue Charity

hi,
I'm hoping someone out there can help. I have been hand rearing a baby ring necked dove that was found weak and cold in the road gutter, risking getting run over or eaten by a passing cat/dog . There was no way i could climb the tree to put it back in the nest, and the idea was to feed it up and let it go (it had got some wing feathers, but barely any tail feathers so wasn't a fle...

Hello,

I have seen the photo of the mark and you can plainly see that it is a claw mark.

Hi there,

Before there were posts about puppies being rescued and hand reared, a long story about one of BARC's long termers finding a new home and how her adopter coped, every month there were posts about all the dogs and cats that had been adopted, it...
