My aunt is living in the Seychelles which is off Eastern Africa with her husband and 2 kids. My uncle is working in a job involving trying to set up the fishing industry so they can better support themselves, and my aunt volunteers at the local animal welfare group helping with spay and neuters (she's a nurse by trade) and just helping out where she can.
The government there is ridiculously corrupt, and they don't answer to anyone. She's just been telling me that she's currently trying to save a friends dog's life. She says:
The stories my aunt has about the way the country is run and how much corruption there is in the Government would blow your mind...
And if anyone knows of any good way to help a dog that's eaten rat poison, please let me know ASAP...

They only have basic facilities, and not a lot of skill and knowledge so it makes it very hard. And that's just for the animals.At the moment I'm trying to save a friends dog from dying - we think it ate rat poison and although the vets here have given Vit K I am wondering if we should give more!! The vets are not known for being aggressive in their treatment and certainly don't care about the outcome of their treatment!!
We have been having ongoing problems with all sorts of poisoning, at the moment they (Ministry of Environment) are using an organophosphate (very nasty death) as a means of dog control. We (SSPCA) keep going round in circles, but we won't give up!!
