dog home in manchester on fire

[frownyface]

Massive dog rehoming centre in manchester is on fire, they havent got all the dogs out :( i could cry for them :(

that is horrifying. I hope they get it under control and manage to get in.

Ive read unconfirmed reports that it was arson....but its still ongoing now so nothing confirmed-the pics on facebook look awful :(

So very sad , sky news reported building collapsed. Those poor little dogs :(

Oh my god that is truly awful. What fucking cunts if it is arson. I cant bear to think about it.

I know, there is an online gallery-i wont be looking at it :( i hope the dogs were overcome with the fumes, just heartbreaking

That's just horrible. Evil bastards

I wish i was closer. Can send stuff if needed, could you please keep us posted wigan please since u know someone on the front line as it were?

What a fucking wanker

No need to apologise wigan! I feel the same

Right 50 dogs are in urgent need of fostering :(

At least there are 50 survivors. Dog lovers will rally round - I'm sure many will step forward to foster.

I am filled with rage that someone could do that. Those poor dogs relied on human kindness, and some evil little shit comes along. He/she is a waste of space.

Please , please support the other local rescues who will have to catch the slack as it were in the coming weeks.
Without the facility, so many stray dogs will need to be accommodated in already struggling rescues. The pound takes in at least three councils strays. Smaller rescues might be overwhelmed so please don't forget them.

43 dogs have died

Just heard this , so heartbreaking. Will go there on Saturday to take some food and blankets but wish I could do more. Never say this about threads on here but am in tears over this.

What a waste of oxygen the 'person' who did this is.

Most of those dogs have already had difficult lives and that is why they are in the shelter....and then this happens

If it wasn't bad enough being in kennels and stressed already, now the survivors have another awful experience to recover from.

Poor dogs and poor staff. I imagine most rescues can't afford good sprinkler systems or anything that would've helped like automatic door openers if the alarm went

Initial reports say a boy has been arrested.

Despicable

We re-homed a dog from there years ago. He gave us many years of happiness.
