Walter – 4-5 year old male Cross-Breed

Friends of Animals - Nea Filadelfia — Sat, 11 Feb 2012 18:15:15 +0000

Walter is a pointer of about 4-5 years old. He is a medium-sized dog, weighing about 26kg. He is fully-vaccinated and wormed and will be neutered before travelling to the UK from our shelter in Greece.

Walter has been in the shelter since June 2011 and, although we love him dearly, it is about time he found his forever home and settled down with a family who can give him all the cuddles he deserves. He is an energetic lad and so would be better suited to an active family who can treat him to extensive walks and games. As an ex-hunting dog he is full of beans and loves to run and play. He is very friendly with children and other dogs and we are confident he would get on well with cats.

Walter is a very gentle soul – he is very quiet and loves to cuddle and be petted. No matter how much another dog may growl or bark at him he never gets angry or reacts. He is determined to give the best of himself in every aspect of life – whether it is a tender, affectionate cuddle or a boisterous game outdoors.

Walter has not had an easy life so far. He was abandoned by his owners once he had outlived his usefulness as a hunting dog. As with most working dogs in Greece his health had been completely neglected, he was half-starved and had probably never experienced human affection. When our volunteers found him he was in a terrible state and we didn’t think he had long to live. He suffers from kalazar (leishmaniasis) which if left untreated is fatal. We took him in expecting him to pass away in a matter of weeks, but he has surprised us all and made a spectacular recovery. His incredible spirit and desire to live have pulled him through all this and he is so big-hearted and full of life you would never suspect he had seen so much suffering.

Walter is still a carrier of kalazar, with a blood count of 1/200 (on arrival in June 2011 his level was 1/800 and by October it was down to 1/400). His illness is now at a manageable level, but will require devoted, understanding owners who are prepared to take him for regular blood tests and provide him with the medication he needs. A UK vet estimates that it will cost about £250 a year for his tests and a daily tablet of Allupurinol. It is also likely that Walter’s kidneys have suffered damage and that his life will be shortened as a result. Are you prepared to give Walter the chance of life that he has fought so hard for?

Walter will be travelling to the UK at the end of May. His transport costs will be paid; a donation to the shelter will be at the discretion of his new family. He has a foster home ready and waiting for him if necessary but we would love for him to be able to go directly to his forever home so he can start giving out hugs straight away.
