Negra needs a home!

Objavljeno u Ljubimci

Beautiful, intelligent, good-natured and lively, Negra will bring joy to the right owner.

Negra is three years old and will be four in November 2023. Her mother is a Balkan hound, reddish-black in colour, while her father is an English setter, black and white. Negra is a beautiful very deep chocolate brown colour, almost black, with a smooth glossy coat.

She spent a little time with Eco Hvar a couple of years ago, during which she responded extremely well to obedience training from Sara Radonić, our qualified dog-groomer. In no time at all she had mastered basic commands and also learned several clever 'tricks'. She evidently enjoyed the attention and the challenges!

Later on, she proved to be less amenable to learning her role as a hunting dog, so she is now looking for the right owner who can provide her with plenty of exercise, affection and, of course, the right form of obedience training suited to her new life.

Negra is now in the Animal Centrum Shelter in Kaštel Sućurac, where she is receiving all the necessary medical and social care she needs prior to re-homing. If you are interested in meeting Negra and perhaps eventually offering her a good home, please contact the Shelter by email at: Ova e-mail adresa je zaštićena od spambota.

UPDATE: Happy news, Negra has found a loving new home in Germany!

  • How the ‘Picasso of ponds’ went from shaping golf courses to making freshwater homes for wildlife

    Shaun Hancox has created scores of ponds for rewilding projects across Britain – and he says there’s a lot more to it than digging a hole

    He is known as “the Picasso of ponds” but the tableaux being created by Shaun Hancox in a boggy field in Somerset currently looks more like a building site. An orange and black excavator is rhythmically removing lumpy clay soil and sculpting it into brown banks.

    The result looks like a scar of bare earth on what was once green pasture – but the magic happens as soon as rain fills the newly created depressions. Plants seed swiftly, invertebrates and amphibians rapidly find the water, and life explodes.

  • Country diary: A plough, a haybale – who would live in a house like this? | Nicola Chester

    Hungerford, Berkshire: In a nearby farm, ever-resourceful birds and bees are getting creative with where they build their nests

    There are some unusual nesting spots being utilised in the farm and stableyard, revealed by pauses between chores.

    My wheelbarrow trips to the muck heap are attended by pied and grey wagtail pairs that make small aerial assaults on insects, though I’ve yet to locate their nests. The swallows are well-served here by midges and flies swarming around warm-blooded animals, and there is always mud for nest repairs, with the regular slosh of water buckets and hosing down of sweaty horses.

  • Average person eats six times more chicken than in 1961, UN report finds

    UN report says global meat supply has risen fourfold in last 60 years and is expected to keep rising

    The average person eats about six times as much chicken and twice as much pork as their grandparents’ generation did, data from a UN report suggests, with global meat supply having risen fourfold in the last 60 years and expected to keep rising.

    The supply of poultry rose from below 3kg a person in 1961 to 17kg in 2022, according to data from the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO). Pork supply doubled to 15kg a person over the same period, while beef, the most polluting food, stayed steady at 9kg.

  • ‘Unpredictable and extreme’: Asia braces for El Niño

    Weather models project a potentially strong El Niño this year, which could spell disaster for heatwave-hit India, drench China and hurt agriculture across south-east Asia

    The UN has warned that the world must prepare for the imminent return of El Niño and the raised global temperatures and weather extremes it brings.

    The powerful natural weather pattern has an 80% chance of forming before September and a 90% chance before November, the World Meteorological Organization (WMO) said on Tuesday.

  • Scientists warn Trump plan to axe US ocean monitoring system will leave world ‘flying blind’

    Experts say dismantling the ocean observation system will ‘severely degrade’ the accuracy of weather predictions

    The Trump administration’s plan to dismantle an ocean observation system vital to understanding the climate crisis and marine ecosystems would “severely degrade” the accuracy of weather predictions and El Niño forecasts, with economic consequences for the US, European and American scientists have warned.

    Decommissioning the US system, which plays a major part in a global ocean observation network, would lead to a massive increase in error in the annual estimates of ocean heating rates, according to research published last month.

  • Scramble for biofuel as oil prices rise ‘could push world closer to food crisis’

    Experts say increased use of crops for fuel is ‘dangerous game’ that could send food price inflation soaring

    Demand for biofuels is likely to leap by nearly a third this year, which could send food price inflation soaring further and push the world closer to a global food crisis.

    More countries are opting to increase biofuel use as the price of oil has jumped to nearly $100 a barrel after the US-Israeli attacks on Iran and the closure of the strait of Hormuz.

  • Get set for a painted lady summer: big year for orange butterflies in Britain

    Migrant insects have been seen in large numbers along east coast thanks to heatwave and benign southerly winds

    If you’ve spotted a pale orange butterfly dashing at frenetic pace through streets, fields or gardens, you’ve noticed the new migrants that will add colour to the summer in record-breaking numbers.

    What is expected to be the largest arrival of painted lady butterflies in Britain for 17 years is under way after heatwaves and favourable winds ushered thousands if not millions of the insects northwards.

  • Drought and floods drove them from their homes. But hunger and poverty have followed them to a Mogadishu camp

    More than 6.5 million Somalis have been pushed to the brink of severe hunger as the climate crisis, fighting and cuts in aid leave a trail of despair

    For three years, Zeynab Ibrahim watched as her little town shrivelled up and died. The rains never came, the reservoirs were depleted and the farms gradually turned to dust. Hunger and sickness swept through the village, claiming the lives of many, including four of Ibrahim’s 10 children.

    “We tried every means to survive – selling dried grass and digging up water from the barren earth. Unfortunately, there was nothing left, so we had no choice but to escape to save our children,” she says, sitting in front of her shelter in a camp for internally displaced people (IDP) in the Kahda district of Somalia’s capital, Mogadishu.

  • Predator or prey? The confounding case of the missing sea eagle

    The UK’s biggest bird of prey has been compared to a flying barn door. So how can one fitted with a satellite tracker disappear in prime grouse-shooting country?

    The six police officers arrived at the Snilesworth estate in two pickup trucks last week, according to one account. They asked to go up on the moors, a source said, and “so off they went”.

    A vast expanse of spectacularly undulating lands on the western edge of the North York Moors, Snilesworth is globally renowned for its grouse, partridge and pheasant shooting. It is known locally for attracting “rich people from London in helicopters and blacked-out SUVs”.

  • How campaigners beat industrial farming in Denmark’s ‘pig election’

    Mette Frederiksen’s new government promises overhaul for people – and animals – in home of ultra-intensive farming

    Like all new prime ministers, when Mette Frederiksen secured a third consecutive term as Denmark’s head of government this week, she promised her administration would take steps to “improve the everyday lives” of the country’s inhabitants.

    Unlike most new prime ministers, however, she specified that her left-leaning coalition’s policy programme would be not just for “the people who are in Denmark and the ⁠generations to come” but also “for the animals”.
