What happened at Futrinka during week 45?

The first complete week following All Saints’ Day was a really active one for all of us. Luckily we can report on many adoptions, but as usually, these were not the only happenings of the week.

At our vizsla breed rescue group the week was meant to be spent with medical check-ups and happy adoptions, but received sad news as well for the end of the week.

In Zétény’s condition we could not achieve any significant improvement so far, tried anything we could, he does not gain weight. Hence we sent him for a urine check-up, the result being just overwhelming: a rare parasite is present in his urine. The capillaria worm gets into the body while eating snails and earthworms, will wandern around ruining the inner organs, most often finishing in the lungs. Regarding his treatment we are still consulting our vets.

Bengó takes the veterinary macerations hard, but his behaviour has changed significantly, hence time has come he underwent neutralization. Unfortunately following the operation he had to return to our kennel row, not having a temporary or a permanent adopter, he is recovering nice. Now he would really be ready for adoption, but we still need to find his dream family for this.

Fény’s routine heartworm test proved negative, this way she underwent neutralization. Following it she did not have to recover on the kennel row, moved instead to a permanent family – one, not being strange for her at all, her partner from Tárnoki Okosok fell in love with her.

Uncle Edmund had a serious operation for his rectum tumour, being very risky together with anaesthesie because of his heartworms. During the operation luckily everything went well, but recovering will not be that easy for him.

Ábel’s routine heartworm test resulted negative, hence he underwent neutralization. He is ready to move to a final adopter, but for it we still need to find the perfect family for him.

During the summer we received sad news from the adopter of a former protegee of ours, Puma – during one of their usual walks his heart just stopped and he could not be helped upon any more. Puma has an irreplaceable, highlighted room in her adopter’s heart forever, but she also felt time has come for her to give a chance for a protegee of ours in need. The lucky one chosen is Paleo Plútó, getting from now on much love and moving.

With the help of our foreign partner organizations six dogs of ours headed for their new homes on Saturday.

Kisherceg, given to the Vác animal protectors with his mate by their previous owner.

Mogyoró Matyi, getting to our care from his previous owner because of their move.

Helka and Hubi, getting to us together, and now finding their final home also as a pair.

And finally the best piece of news: Szőlősi Töki, waiting for this moment at our care for more than a year.

We also had two arrivals this week: the animal protectors of Kisújszállás asked for our help, we named the coming ones Edgar and Habókos.

Valenta was adopted in 2014 from us. A wonderful, perfect, problem-free one, hence we were really shocked when she returned to our care. This week though she moved to a loving family, we strongly hope for the final one this time.

Two sad things happened at the closure of the week, ones we had not counted on at all.

We gladly wanted to report on MaMarci finding his final family, but our joy did not last long. After only one day he returned to our care, meaning he is still looking for his dream family.

Joda, the fairy and charming wire-haired vizsla girl was adopted from us in 2015. We were suddenly informed by the adopter that he returns her to us. Sunday she arrived back, and to prevent a great shock we placed her at her previous dog pansion adoptives.

Great Dane breed rescue’s new arrival is Sherlock.

This very nice, but extremely shy approximately 1,5-year-old boy landed at us completely non-vaccinated, meaning he is still spending his quarantine-time. He has received his first vaccination, is over the heartworm-test. Luckily his result is negative.

The group of chanceless mixtures is over really wonderous adoptions this week, two of our long-time veterane protegees were placed at final families.

Uncle Monki, the Dachshund mixture female, rescued from Illatos út was adopted by an active supporter of our Association back upon its launch. We are sure she will have a great time in her new home.

Marci arrived exactly a year ago with his Dachshund mixture mate, but while his friend found his new owner, Marci had not been spotted by anyone so far. Our Astrian partner, AC Austria found a loving home for him, his temporary adopted sad him good-bye with an aching heart. We wish you happi years to come Marci, you really deserve it!

Besides the positive pieces of news unfortunately bad things happened as well. Küllő felt very bad, the neurological check-up evidently shows his neck is involved, but at the same time excludes vertebrae hernia. We have agreed on a special check-up for Küllő, also stating that if it shows a symptom to be operated, they should carry it out within the same narcosis, as his anaesthesiae is risky because of his heartworms, also a double narcosis takes the possibility of the December-operation away from him – this would be done by an Italian professor, a catheter-based heartworm-rarifying operation, for which we had already collected the amount necessary. To our greatest shock the hospital concerned not only carried out a different than the agreed check-up without even asking us about it, they also concentrated ont he vertebrae hernia – though even if they did not listen to us during our phone call, they received all the medical results of Küllő, from which it would have been visible that an expert already excluded its possibility…Money thrown out of the window and the unecessary risking of a dog’s life, which is non-forgivable…Küllő is still sick, but we have found him a trustworthy veterinary. Any fingers crossed counts for him now!

At the Dachshund breed rescue we launched a campaign this week for our retired ones.

Unfortunately we have more and more 10+ dogs arriving at our care, and we sadly have to acknowledge, not too many interests are shown in adopting them.

Many think they would not adopt a dog just for a couple of years, would like to spend more time with them.

Though the elderly dogs are wonderful, we would warmly suggest adopting an elderly one to every beginner in dog-keeping, learning what living with a four-paw mate is like and what it means to have a dog.

The aim of our campaign is to find temporary adoptives for our elderly protegees, placing them in family circles till finding their permanent owners.

We do hope our initiative is successful and our elderly ones can already spend the holiday season in families. Contact us if you need a good friend!

From among our pensioners Bomó, getting to our care from the Ózd flaying house moved to an owner this week.

He will accompany two cats, it meant no problem for him, they are already establishing their friendship.

The other one adopted this week was Izolda, the last member of the wire-haired family.

The turn in their story was that she now accompanies her daughter, Likőr. Some weeks had passed by before their last meeting.

Her arrival was followed by signs of great happiness and playing together.

Fondor, having had a vertebrae operation last week became a candidate for ownership – he is feeling better and better.

Tobozka, the 11-year-old Dachshund mixture female, left alone and meant to be put to sleep is also a candidate now for adoption. Following an operation a loving owner is waiting for her.

From the Katona family two kids, Baka and Tizedes are also to be adopted now, soon they will move to their owners.
