This morning we went to the local SPCA kennels where we walk the dogs and where we found Ned. They've been doing some building work recently and today was the "opening ceremony" for the new block of kennels. Until now, dogs have been chained to trees next to wooden kennels, or kept in wire-fenced areas, so it will be nice for the lucky few to have some really good shelter during the worst of the weather.
The kennels are on privately owned land - effectively in someone's back garden, but surrounded by lemon orchards. It's sad to see so many lovely dogs without homes, but at least they are being cared for and they all seem so happy. If Ned is anything to go by, they'll all make wonderful pets for someone (hopefully soon).
