1
00:00:00,360 --> 00:00:04,360
Speaker 1: Jonesy and Amanda's. I had a great lunch with some

2
00:00:04,400 --> 00:00:08,600
Speaker 1: people yesterday. I want to read you a list of

3
00:00:08,640 --> 00:00:11,520
Speaker 1: the names. There were a variety of people and there

4
00:00:11,560 --> 00:00:14,960
Speaker 1: were two dogs. I want you to tell me which

5
00:00:15,000 --> 00:00:19,200
Speaker 1: were the two dogs from these names? So the people, well,

6
00:00:19,239 --> 00:00:20,480
Speaker 1: you know Harley.

7
00:00:20,239 --> 00:00:33,960
Speaker 2: Yes dog, So forget Harley, Sue Dasher, Scotty Sherry, Jonathan, Pamela.

8
00:00:34,560 --> 00:00:40,599
Speaker 1: Two of those were dogs, Scotty and Dasher. They are

9
00:00:40,600 --> 00:00:45,760
Speaker 1: both humans, Sue Dasher, Scottish Sherry humans. Jonathan and Pamela

10
00:00:45,800 --> 00:00:50,040
Speaker 1: were the dogs. Jonathan and Pamela, or Johnny and Pam

11
00:00:50,080 --> 00:00:52,559
Speaker 1: as they were known as when I became more familiar

12
00:00:52,600 --> 00:00:55,440
Speaker 1: with them throughout the afternoon, I called them Johnny and

13
00:00:55,480 --> 00:00:58,640
Speaker 1: pam When I was first introduced Jonathan and Pamela.

14
00:00:58,480 --> 00:00:59,360
Speaker 2: A few drinks.

15
00:01:00,480 --> 00:01:04,280
Speaker 1: The dogs, Oh yes, hi, come here. But look on

16
00:01:04,319 --> 00:01:06,959
Speaker 1: a serious note, this is a story we kind of

17
00:01:07,000 --> 00:01:11,640
Speaker 1: saw coming and it's very distressing. Dog shelters across the

18
00:01:11,680 --> 00:01:17,280
Speaker 1: state recording quote gut wrenching spike in pets surrenders. So

19
00:01:17,640 --> 00:01:22,640
Speaker 1: these are people who have taken have got dogs from shelters,

20
00:01:22,720 --> 00:01:27,319
Speaker 1: or have bought dogs and cats during lockdown and are

21
00:01:27,400 --> 00:01:31,200
Speaker 1: now finding that they don't have the time, the money,

22
00:01:31,319 --> 00:01:35,320
Speaker 1: or the inclination to look after them, and so they

23
00:01:35,520 --> 00:01:39,200
Speaker 1: are at breaking point. An absolute increase in the numbers

24
00:01:39,200 --> 00:01:43,520
Speaker 1: of pets. Pet shelters RSPCA, the Western Sydney Dog Shelter

25
00:01:43,640 --> 00:01:46,280
Speaker 1: Rescue Hub that one last week announced it's closing its

26
00:01:46,280 --> 00:01:48,920
Speaker 1: doors to new animals because they've had influx of surrenders

27
00:01:48,920 --> 00:01:54,279
Speaker 1: of pets. You know, we knew it at the time,

28
00:01:54,480 --> 00:01:58,360
Speaker 1: people taking cats and dogs because the kids were finding

29
00:01:58,400 --> 00:02:02,040
Speaker 1: lockdown hard. People were finding hard. And now that we're

30
00:02:02,080 --> 00:02:05,160
Speaker 1: slowly opening up again, these animals are being surrendered. It's

31
00:02:05,160 --> 00:02:07,840
Speaker 1: a pet for life, that's the thing. So if you

32
00:02:08,000 --> 00:02:11,280
Speaker 1: can give a pet a home, if you're looking for

33
00:02:11,960 --> 00:02:15,520
Speaker 1: a wonderful, proper interaction, and you are capable of looking

34
00:02:15,560 --> 00:02:19,040
Speaker 1: after an animal, please go to these places and help

35
00:02:19,080 --> 00:02:21,359
Speaker 1: them out, because a lot of animals are being surrendered

36
00:02:21,400 --> 00:02:24,160
Speaker 1: at the moment. Look after Jonathan and Pamela as they've come.

37
00:02:24,360 --> 00:02:27,680
Speaker 1: Actually they people or dogs have forgotten. They're both rescue dogs.

38
00:02:27,720 --> 00:02:30,680
Speaker 1: Jonathan is a rescue greyhound and when you run your

39
00:02:30,720 --> 00:02:35,600
Speaker 1: hand over his back there are a thousand dense bumps

40
00:02:36,480 --> 00:02:40,200
Speaker 1: bones sticking out from the life of abuse that he

41
00:02:40,360 --> 00:02:43,520
Speaker 1: had before he's found this loving home. He's a beautiful,

42
00:02:43,560 --> 00:02:48,280
Speaker 1: beautiful dog, but you feel his history in his back terrible.

43
00:02:48,520 --> 00:02:52,240
Speaker 1: So that's my ghoullye the help if you can, and

44
00:02:52,639 --> 00:02:55,919
Speaker 1: don't just take a dog for a short period of lockdown.

45
00:02:56,240 --> 00:02:56,519
Speaker 2: Thank you.

46
00:02:56,560 --> 00:02:59,119
