Kiki is a very friendly 6-year-old brown fox terrier. When he came in he had a large lump, it was diagnosed as a non-aggressive cancer. This was removed (along with a few smaller lumps). It was about 800 grams in size which is really huge for a dog that weighs about 10 kgs!
Kiki is now well on the way to recovering, as you may see in the post-operation photos, and he is such a lovely boy, all he needs is a proper home and reciprocal company.
If you want to adopt an animal for your children, consider that children can tire quickly of the routine of caring for the animal. Parents often quickly become the animal’s primary caregiver and need to be OK with that. Therefore, adding a new animal family member must be a family decision and a family responsibility.
Having a pet is a great responsibility. There are many ongoing costs that you should be aware of. With good, medical exams, vaccinations, medication, toys and cleaning supplies. It is important to understand these costs before committing to adopting a pet.
The size of your home and the location of your home are significant factors that determine how suitable your home is for a particular animal. For example, dogs need a safe fenced section, shelter, shade, and enough space outside in which to exercise, explore, and play.
