Beautiful Aqua
Update : Aqua found herself an Amaizing new mommy with Siri and her son Anton . Thank you
This is one of those if you don’t ask you will never know posts. And please keep all negative comments to yourself. This gorgeous girl is called Aqua, and she is an 18-week-old purebred black German Shepherd puppy. Aqua has been lame for about 4 weeks and is not getting any better. It is thought that Aqua has a condition called Ununited Anconeal Process (UAP). The right front elbow looks quite badly affected and will need an operation costing approximately $2000. I am currently trying to raise some money towards her operation. A highly intelligent girl who is fully toilet trained, tether trained, semi lead trained, stop trained, come trained. She is very affectionate and is going to be a large assertive dog of great beauty. Aqua is free to an excellent home who is willing to cover the cost of her operation (I will help as much as i can) AND she must be spayed. If anyone has any questions or wants to discuss further, please message me or say so in the comments and I will put you in touch. No time wasters please, must be genuine enquires.

⚠️ DOGS DIE IN HOT CARS. If you love them, don't leave them. ⚠️
It's a message we share time and time again, and this year, we're calling on you to help us spread that message further.
Did you know that calls to SPCA about dogs left inside hot cars made up a whopping 11% of all welfare calls last summer? This is a completely preventable issue, and one which is causing hundreds of dogs (often loved pets) to suffer.
Here are some quick facts to share with the dog owners in your life:
👉 The temperature inside a car can heat to over 50°C in less than 15 minutes.
👉 Parking in the shade and cracking windows does little to help on a warm day. Dogs rely on panting to keep cool, which they can't do in a hot car.
👉 This puts dogs at a high risk of heatstroke - a serious condition for dogs, with a mortality rate between 39%-50%.
👉 It is an offence under the Animal Welfare Act to leave a dog in a hot vehicle if they are showing signs of heat stress. You can be fined, and prosecuted.
SPCA has created downloadable resources to help you spread the message even further. Posters, a flyer, and a social media tile can be downloaded from our website here: www.spca.nz...
We encourage you to use these - and ask your local businesses to display the posters if they can. Flyers can be kept in your car and handed out as needed.
This is a community problem, and one we cannot solve alone. Help us to prevent more tragedies this summer by sharing this post.
On behalf of the animals - thank you ❤️
