    Appeal for help - raising a springer from the dead.

    Hi All



    Here's the story. A friend of mine in Spain owns a Boarding kennels with his wife but they do a huge amount for rescue animals, they end up taking in dogs dumped on their doorstep. Dogs, cats, chickens, peacocks and 2 shetland ponies.
    A really top bloke (and wife).

    Sadly a flash flood ripped through their home and kennels, they saved the dogs but lost some chickens, their peacocks and sadly both ponies crossing a bridge that was swept away. A lot of their kennels and runs are still under feet of mud.


    One of Bo's great pleasures is rat shooting with his springer , IIRC a gamo. Sadly it was found deep in mud. Not valuable and if it was me I'd chuck it but it is dear to him and he would like to restore it

    Is there hope? and if so could anybody help? Maybe basic instructions and possibly even a chat on whatsap or Fb messenger if needed?

    Or is it dead?

    TIA
