Bonjour friends,
This little dear was found eating seafood & searching for a Chablis to accompany it on Portsea beach this afternoon (Sat 13th June).
Some wonderful food samaritans took her home to detox and have now given over to Rosebud Vet.
If anyone has any information on her regular accommodations please let us know.
