Walter, good evening. Our caretaker and his family are raising three pups we were given by a friend on the island, and we buy our food eitrher at Eldon's supermarket in Franch Harbour or from our vet who comes over to his clinis every wednesday and will bribg over 50 lb bags if you request them. We feed our mutts 'Pedigree' and they've done very well on it and ground meat and filet fish scraps. The American vet on the island who neutered and spayed our dogs call them "The Hounds of Ruby Lee Ridge" two males and a female...all from the same litter, and obviously all with different fathers. You must be very careful with dogs (and cats) being poisoned, however...it is done often...someone comes aroyund scattering strychnine-laced segments of hot dogs...many beloved pets are killed each year this way. Good luck, but if you don't already have a dog don't worry...if you want a pet...or two or three, there are no limit it seems to the number of starving dogs and cats on the island...hence the poisoning program that is done on a regular basis. All the best...dke "waltermb " wrote: > Can anyone share a your experience in bring a dog onto the island. > Also where have you found the best source of pet supplies--thanks robert | |
