I will try and contact Animal Aid for you.  The problem is that most if not all of the veterinary clinics will be closed for Bayram so it's going to be tough getting this dog help in the immediate future.
I, or an Animal Aid colleague will get back to you as soon as we can.
Thank you for trying to help this wee one.

Omg .. thank you so much , I have walked to see a lady called angel at Nils bar she has txt a lady named Edna for some help. In the mean time I have insisted the dog is not moved on , he has had water and just ten minuets ago he has taken a small amount of food , I don't know anyone staying at this hotel but they all seam to know each other and I have asked that they back me up and care for this boy until we can get some help . There is a guy here that dose massage etc and he has looked and he also thinks the dog has been hit with a car . He tried for half an hour to contact a vet but it is the same as you have said people are on holiday . I will keep the dog close by but I am uneasy for night time
Thank you again , I am so grateful of your reply ,

If Angel has texted Edna, then I'm sure she will get back to you as soon as she's available.  What I have been able to find out is that one Vet, Serkan Tarim is working normally throughout the Bayram.  He has an excellent reputation for being a kind and caring vet, but unfortunately he does not work with Animal Aid.  That's all the info I can give you for the moment, though I do know he has a dedicated FB page.

What a beauty......I see it's wearing a collar so may be an owned dog, though that is not always the case. Have shared the picture on the Animal Aid FB page in the hope someone recognises it and can get it help.

Hi Tiger, this dog is one of a number of street dogs that a lady called Annie Kervella feeds on a regular basis.  She's heading down to the Mutlu now to have a look and see if she can help.
Incidentally, the dog's name is also Tiger!!!! It's an omen. you were meant to meet.
God bless you for looking after him.
Edna has also been in touch, she's dealing with an injured cat just now and asked me to reply on her behalf.  Animal Aid have a coffee morning at the Nil tomorrow and had planned to pop down and see the dog once it was done and dusted, but hopefully Annie can get it sorted before then.

The good news is that Tiger the dog has been picked up by Annie.  The not so good news is that Tiger has a broken leg, and all the veterinary clinics are closed.  Hoping that Serkan's clinic will see Tiger on an emergency basis.
Tomorrow Animal Aid will be holding their regular fund-raising coffee morning at the Nil between 11am and 1pm - if anyone's in the vicinity please pop in.
Further update: Kentvet are seeing to Tiger as I type.

Tiger has been operated on by Cesme at Kent Vet.He has broken toes and has his leg in a splint.This means he cant really walk on it and desperately needs a place of safety for 3-4 weeks until his toes heal.Annie our wonderful dog person actually got out of her sick bed to rescue this dog but she cant care for him as lives in a second floor flat.We need someone with a fenced in garden to care for Tiger,this sweet natured dog until he recovers.Please are there any members would can offer to help?All our doggy fosterers are full to bursting with sick and injured animals.If you can help would you link into the post on the AA page about Tiger.

I wish to send a heartfelt thankyou from all at Animal Aid to Tiger and the other ladies from the Mutlu Hotel for all their help in securing treatment for Tiger.Its not easy when you dont know the system in a foreign country.Tiger will be getting innoculated then will go to local kennels whilst he recuperates.These kind ladies also donated 100tl in total towards Tigers kenneling fees,so again another huge thankyou from all of us.

The thanks goes to all the wonderful people that helped "our doggie" in such a professional and caring way . Most of us are here for another week and plan to come along to the coffee morning and make more contributions . I am going to find out a way to support this charity from the UK .
I Would also like to thank the guy that does the massage at the Mutlu hotel , He got hold of a close friend of his who was a vet and on holiday in this area . She came to the hotel and explained how we had to care for Tiger until help arrived , she also said that if for some reason we couldn't sort the situation out she would try get hold of a vet for us for the next morning . I felt so proud telling the hotel people the morning after that Tiger was in safe hands ❤️ Thanks again to all you wonderful people xxx

Tiger thank you for taking time out of your holiday to try and get help for your namesake Tiger who thankfully is now in a place of safety while he recovers.
Just to clarify, the Coffee Morning at the Nil is not a weekly event, but held on the first Saturday of the month, so you'll be back in deal old Blighty before the next one.  However, our Animal Aid Fun Quiz  at the Nil will be back up and running on Thursday 7th June starting at 8pm.  It's a hugely entertaining night, accompanied by much hilarity.  Not so much Mastermind as Lose Your Mind!!!!
If you and your friends would like to join us for the evening, you would be made more than welcome, and I promise you - you will have a great time, plus several committee members will be on hand to help you with any questions you might have about the charity and its goals.
Animal Aid do have a dedicated FB page and also a Paypal Account for those wishing to make a donation, whether it be a one-off or regular amount......not one penny is wasted.
The Paypal link is  http://bit.ly/1enWaXM
Thank you again Tiger for your support and kindness.  Enjoy the rest of your holiday.
