Maande nadat die Peoples Dispensary for Sick Animals (PDSA) sonder \u2019n verduideliking hul dienste opgeskort het, s\u00ea Joshua Swart hy is bly di\u00e9 diens keer eersdaags terug.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Swart, van Avondale, s\u00ea nadat die PDSA verlede November weg is, is daar \u2019n leemte in die gemeenskap veral wat die welstand van perde betref.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cPerde en rondloperdiere is lank reeds \u2019n kopseer in die streek,\u201d vertel hy. Volgens Swart word baie diere mishandel, waarvan die meeste perde is. Hy vertel dat perdediewe die grootste sondaars is omdat perde uitgeput raak en dan geslaan word as hulle nie meer kan nie.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Swart het dus \u2019n niewinsgewende organisasie, Horse Pals, gestig om die gebrek in die gemeenskap aan te pak.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cMense moet ten duurste nou mediese hulp vir hul diere buite die dorp kry. Nie almal kan dit bekostig nie en dit lei tot groot getalle diere wat vrek,\u201d vertel hy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cOns as Horse Pals probeer help waar ons kan, maar kan ongelukkig nie almal se diere red nie. Ek het self na die PDSA se kantoor in Bridgetown gegaan om uit te vind hoekom die diens opgeskort is,\u201d s\u00ea Swart.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Personeeltekort en geld was die redes, vertel Swart. Wat hom veral vies maak, is dat die PDSA -mobiele eenheid steeds in ander gebiede besig is. \u201cEk gaan dit my werk maak om die PDSA terug te kry in Atlantis. Hoe weet ek nog nie, maar probeer gaan ek probeer,\u201d vertel hy. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Dit blyk egter sy passie vir diere en hul welstand is nie tevergeefs nie, want by navraag het PDSA bevestig hulle het planne om na Atlantis en Mamre terug te keer. Intussen wil Swart sy passie met ander jongmense deel. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Hy glo dit sal help om hulle \u201cvan die strate af te hou\u201d. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
As deel van Horse Pals word die jongspan geleer hoe om met verskillende diere te werk.\u201cOns het reeds verskeie perde en ander diere se lewe gered en mense kontak ons daagliks oor beseerde diere. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Horse Pals het sowat \u2019n jaar gelede die lig gesien, omdat so baie kinders \u2019n perd wil besit, maar weet nie hoe om na die dier te kyk nie. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cEk het besluit om die jeug te betrek en \u2019n jaar later het ons baie diere en mense se lewe verander. Wat ons hartseer maak, is as ons sien dat die dier se lewe gered kon gewees het as ons steeds hulp van die PDSA gekry het,\u201d meen hy. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
