A Kilo of love is worth a lifetime of happiness! I instantly fell in love with Kilo as soon as he was dropped off as an owner surrender. His medical needs at the time were more than the young couple could handle. They loved him but living on base, with a limited income, prevented Kilo from getting on the road to wellness. Their goodbye was sad. But Kilo came into our Cafe area and assessed the whole area. He then went into the Cafe, found this tiny bed that was meant for our small dogs, dragged it outside and tried to fit his big body into that tiny bed. His back legs stretched out as far as they could and he just looked like he was ready to sit and wait for his new family to come find him. We normally wait a few days before taking new dogs to the vet, but Kilo needed to be seen sooner rather than later. He got medication for his skin issues and is already feeling so much better. By the end of the week, he will be neutered and his ears will have been treated as well. Life is definitely looking up for Kilo. The one thing we know for certain is that wherever Kilo goes, people adore him. He is so chill and just happy to be around people. He loves to ride in the car and when it's time to get out, he doesn't step down and then out, he just jumps straight out, like Superman taking off, and lands on all four paws. Kilo is a two-year-old English Bulldog. He needs to gain a few pounds, which is our specialty, and his skin issues are already improving. He is on a special diet for his skin and we are thrilled that he enjoys it. Kilo makes you slow down and enjoy each moment - he is cool like that. I wonder if anything has ever really bothered him, aside from saying goodbye to his people. He just seems grateful for your time and happy for his next adventure. Please come meet Kilo and see what contentment looks like. He is a very special boy and we can't wait for him to begin his new chapter because we know love and light will follow him wherever he goes! Animal Aid Society, 80 Butler Farm Road, Hampton. Open every day between 9AM and noon. Interested? Come for a visit any day of the week - 365 days a year between 9am - 12pm. Hope to see you soon!
PLEASE NOTE: Animal Aid Society observes a 40 mile adoption radius to facilitate post adoption support and follow ups.
