It wasn’t just Simba who was in hospital this week, our beloved sanctuary, rescue dog, Milo, also paid a trip to Dr Caldwell.

Milo appears to have got a large thorn or wood splinter stuck in his leg during his romps around the sanctuary with the other dogs Freya and Rollo.

Dr Caldwell removed this and sent Milo home with the challenging instruction for the sanctuary team to “Keep Milo quiet for the next 48 hours!” Needless to say Rollo and Freya gave him a hero’s welcome on his return.
