Today, we need you. This article is specially written for our friends of Bex, at about ten kilometers from our home.
In the evening of Friday, October 10th, criminals voluntarily set fire to the main building of the kennel of Bex (source : Police Vaudoise and newspaper Le Matin). Fortunately, horses, cats, and dogs were able to be evacuated in time by the fire brigades which quickly arrived on the scene, and there is no wounded person. Only one dog was not able to be saved and died suffocated : already very shy, he most probably hid and was not able to be found in time.

The building is ravaged ; a container was already supplied to the staff of the kennel to install a provisional reception there. The shelters of animals and the reserves of food were not affected ; the kennel has an accommodation facilities of 80 dogs and 40 cats, but fortunately the cat boarding (which was in the building which burned) was luckily empty these days.
Winter is coming and our friends need, by order of priority :
- Money : what remains of the building must be unsettled and freed to be able to reconstruct everything, before the arrival of winter if possible
- Blankets
