A dog has approx 3 days in the shelter & if not rescued they are gassed! I was lucky to transport a Badali. He was rescued in Cairo & was at a foster home until transportation was available, this took approx 3 months. His name is Puzzle. He came 9,203km on a 13 hr flight! Puzzle is a very quiet boy, while I had him in my car Puzzle got comfy & didn't move just enjoyed the quiet. I would imagine being in a crate 13hrs in the cargo area was a very loud & cold, uncomfortable. He had no idea how to get into a car, once in my car he didn't want to get out! I had to lift him in & out. Puzzle is currently at a foster home. He is doing very well as he has figured out that he is safe & enjoys regular feedings & a comfy spot to lay his head. <br />Puzzle will be put up for adoption soon. We just need to get him nuetered & see how he gets along with other animals, people & places!!<br />If you are thinking about a dog please consider a rescue or a rescue Baldai!!!!

She came here for surgery and is now functional and pain free... Herself and her brother were semi feral but it literally took them a day to come round to being spoiled and living comforts. I've fostered hundreds of dogs an own 5 and can say that by far my baladi is the most intelligent, friendliest, loyal and funny dog I've ever encountered 😄 every home should own one Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5203628.post-12254845477634047182015-02-01T10:28:03.660+02:002015-02-01T10:28:03.660+02:00I found your site when researching baladi dogs aft...I found your site when researching baladi dogs after a holiday in Egypt. I keep and work lurchers which, in many ways are like baladi's.<br /><br />I read your most recent post but found I agreed with your last paragraph more than the preceding ones. Perhaps it is because I live in a cosetted European city that I don't believe in as much doom and gloom as you...Perhaps the truth lies somewhere between. Then again maybe one's outlook is the result of one's day to day existence. I know I went through a decade when every year was worse than the year before. I hope that 2015 is better than 2014 for more people.LurcherLadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16076906226177909433noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5203628.post-18983415430621269742015-01-30T02:33:21.709+02:002015-01-30T02:33:21.709+02:00I think all dogs should have a good home there is ...I think all dogs should have a good home there is no need for stray or abandoned animals, dogs are loyal and love you for who you are, they do not judge, they are much nicer than alot of people on earth, if I had little or no money I would make sure that my dog had food before myself (that's the truth) it breaks my heart when I go on holiday and see these poor animals on the streets I just want to take them home so sad.

I understand your reluctance to stir anything up for yourself, but it sure is nice to see you once in while.<br />I have gotten hooked on the Healing Animals Organization that your told us about a while bad. What a great service. And so human.<br />In a world with so much hate - it is wonderful to see people be normal in spite of it all; or some people being bigger than normal in spite of us all. <br />I found your blog ages ago, reading about Egypt from an animal owners point of view. Then realized that you had a small farm operation (like we have) to provide mostly for you and yours. <br />The idea of horse riding through the pyramids, at dawn or late dusk -- just caught my imagination. I wish my resources would allow me to do that - I would do it in a minute.<br />So, enjoy your neighbors and animals and know many of us can live a little vicariously through you,<br />Best to all of you from Vancouver, Washington, USA<br />Louise FeddemaAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15605935784728733027noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5203628.post-48511041589063945022015-01-03T14:30:04.082+02:002015-01-03T14:30:04.082+02:00Lovely post, MA, really thoughtful and inspiring! ...Lovely post, MA, really thoughtful and inspiring! xx <br />CairoLucynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5203628.post-10554458898917755282014-12-30T15:09:41.971+02:002014-12-30T15:09:41.971+02:00that is really touch my heart,

I hope this essay becomes a long living legacy. <br /><br />I smiled when he wrote of growing up being taught that Egypt was the center of the universe. I was taught the same except it was that Boston was nicknamed "The Hub City" because it was the hub of the universe. <br /><br />He was so wise to include that. I suspect most people were taught that about their home town and/or country and so could early on identify with him and become more open to examining more of our assumptions and prejudices.
