| On Friday 24th September 2010, the Sanctuary received a telephone call about a possible abandoned pup at Portreath.
Amy from the Animal Care Team here at the Sanctuary set off with cage & rescue kit and headed out.
Amy found the pup near the SLSC and started an assessment on the beach, his temperature was a little high and he had a few superficial wounds and under weight, he was given fluids at the scene and then transferred to a cage for the journey back to the Sanctuary.
Back at Gweek a clinical assessment revealed he was only 3 days old and also had a scratch to his left eye, which he is now receiving a course of treatment for. This pup has been named Sulley.
Update: Sulley is now in hospital pen three and doing a lot better as when the team go into the pen, he is very aggressive in his nature which is a good sign, he now needs to put on weight as he was only 13 kilos when he arrived.
