COUCHIE (Cucci)

Update 12th Feb:

An Update on little Cucci

As many of you know, this little dog arrived 'on 3 legs'!

He has a ruptured cruciate ligament which vets and kennels apparently failed to notice!

We have raised all the funds needed for his surgery and just wanted to let everyone know that he has had an ongoing gastric problem preventing the surgery from going ahead until resolved.

We are hoping he is nearly out the other side and that we will be able to go ahead with surgery in the coming week or two.

We will, of course, update when the time comes.

We will be looking for a foster local to us/our vet to see him through his recovery post surgery

COUCHIE - SURGERY NEEDED (27th Jan update)

An update on this little chap who is 10.5 yrs old but a happy and very affectionate little dog

Couchie arrived last Wednesday and went straight to foster. He was clearly not right and only using 3 legs!

A trip to our vet for examination and blood tests revealed a fully ruptured cruciate ligament!

He had been handed in to a vet apparently before being passed to a council pound kennels in the North!

It seems no-one noticed he was on 3 legs and the vets seem to have failed to mention the cruciate.

This was surely a welfare issue as the poor little scrap was left with no pain relief for a week in pound kennels!

Anyway the long and short of this is that he needs cruciate ligament surgery and this will be taking place ASAP.

The cost of the surgery £1350.00 which although this is a very good price - it is a big chunk to find.

If anyone would like to donate towards his surgery we would be very grateful indeed.

The donation details are available on the Arundawn website

We will keep this page updated on his progress over the coming days/weeks as he heads towards recovery...

Update 22nd Jan:

Couchie is VERY underweight and is not using one hind leg much at the moment but we will be getting a veterinary assessment as soon as he settles (more photos added below)...

Original info:

This little chap is 10.5 years old! ANOTHER abandoned oldie in a a pound.

He will be arriving from the pound tomorrow and looking for foster.

We know that he is dog friendly and seems very sweet.

We have no other information about him at this time.

If you are interested in offering foster please contact us via this website/complete the foster application form - or if you have already been homechecked please send a text thank you!
