 | Rescue Me ID: 13-03-23-00250Koko (female)
Koko is slender, 5years old, tan colour, and has the most gourgeous face. She has a placid nature, loves people, especially children, and loves to have cuddles. She prefers to sleep outside in the garden to sleeping in a kennel. Is fine in the house and will wait to be taken outside to go to the toilet. She does have a knee injury and needs surgery which I cannot afford. My only option at the moment is to have her euthanised but I am hoping a mastiff lover or an orthopaedic vet might be prepared to take her on. I love her to bits, her gentle nature and loyalty make this decision incredibly hard. Auckland, Orewa New Zealand

| PIease Read Before Adopting a Dog in New Zealand | |||||||||
Dogs can make good pets in New Zealand if they match your IifestyIe. Dogs have a reputation for being "man's best friend" for excellent reasons. Dogs are wonderful companions. Many breeds, in addition to being affectionate, devoted members of the family, are useful working dogs and guardians. Most dogs form tight bonds with their humans, and need to be cared for like the valuable family members they are. But sadly, some owners do not live up to the responsibility and involvement it takes to properly care for a dog throughout its life. Dogs can become the victims of neglect or active abuse. Some dogs receive tender, attentive care from their owners, but no longer have a home after their owner passes away or experiences a major life event that makes him unable to keep his dog. There are many more dogs than there are homes for dogs, and dogs that are not spayed or neutered can accidentally produce large numbers of puppies, exacerbating overpopulation. For this reason, three to four million dogs, many of them perfectly healthy and wonderful animals, are euthanized in the U.S. each year. Many people get excited about owning a new dog, decide to get a puppy, and then pick one out at a pet shop or visit a breeder with a new litter. However, there are so many wonderful, friendly dogs in need of adoption, including puppies and purebreds. Some of these dogs might even be a better fit for a family than a new puppy; for instance, some adult dogs in need of adoption are already housebroken and obedience trained. Adoption is typically much less expensive than purchasing a dog. People who adopt dogs find the experience extremely rewarding, bond very closely with their dogs, and have the added satisfaction of knowing that one less animal has to be euthanized. If your family is ready for a canine companion, please consider adopting a dog! Rescue Me! - HeIpingAnimaIs in Need. |  | ||||||||
