Ruby the rubbish chute dog

First was to Girl, and as usual a muddy welcome by the whole gang. They are as well as always.


Next, we went to look for this dog who has disappeared for days. When she was first spotted, she was extremely thin. Apparently, the man cleaning out the rubbish chute took her in. However, the man disappeared 3 weeks back and had just left the dog on her own in the room behind the rubbish chute.


V then got one of the indian workers from the nearby quarters to help feed the dog. But few days ago, that man also was nowhere to be found. The dog also disappeared. She was nowhere to be found nor heard.

Then, just now, as I walked round the rubbish chute, hoping to find that indian worker, his friend was there and said that he just saw the dog around the area. I went back to tell V that the dog must be nearby. As I walked back to speak more to the man, there the dog was, lying on the grass under a bush! Looking calm and cool.





The indian worker told us that we have to remove her cos their manager wants her out of the quarters area. And no one will be able to help look after her.

So, we had to take her away. We took her to the vet to be sterilised and microchipped before we decide the next best step for her.

Initially shy, she turns out to be a sweetheart. Silently curious in the car, she was sitting up and peering out the window after awhile. And giving me shy licks and glances along the way. Lovely doe eyes.






She will make a sweet family pet. Her name is now Ruby, the rubbish chute gal.

* We are raising funds to assist us in expenses which will be incurred for:


(i) sterilisation

(ii) microchipping
(iii) medical bills

(iii) transport charges for urgent cases

We sincerely seek your financial support as we persevere in the need for sterilisation of our local strays.
Kindly email us at projectjkteam@yahoo.com.sg for more information on how you can support us.

THANK YOU.
