Plea goes out for dog with bad paw

Save our staffie" is the plea from the Nassus Animal Shelter in Feilding, which can't fund a potentially life-saving operation for one of its charges.
Bullet, a pure-bred staffordshire bull terrier about two years old, was found abandoned three weeks ago and brought to the shelter. There she quickly endeared herself to the staff, and demonstrated a penchant for doing everything at high speed.

"She ricocheted around the place as if she had been fired from a gun," Teresa Sharman-Richards said yesterday. "That's how she got her name." However, Bullet has a large and possibly cancerous growth the size of a golf ball on her left front paw. MORE>>
