Who’s a pretty little puggy girl?…
With the perfect head tilt, gorgeous wrinkles and tail curl….
Kikko says yep that’s absolutely me…
And as well as being pretty I’ve undergone all of my vetwork, weight loss and behavioral modification in my Pug Rescue life makeover and all I need is a furever family to adopt me…
Kikko says she entered Pug Rescue obese, manic, covered in fleas, with ear infections, peeing blood, struggling to breathe and pooing out rocks….
Thankfully Pug Rescue sprang into action to help her lots….
Itchy skin sorted with flea treatment and baths, diet to lose 3kg+ in excess weight, ear infection treatment, UTI testing and treatment as well as a bladder clean out at Knox Vet Clinic and lots of training and socialisation improved Kikko’s physical and mental health a lot…
Next it was onto BOAS “Brachycephalic Obstructive Airway Syndrome” surgery performed by Dr Ricky and the Geelong Animal Referral Services Team which included soft palate thinning and trimming, tonsil removal and nostril widening which has improved Kikko’s breathing greatly especially when it’s hot.…
Kikko reports she is always the life of the party and loves joining in with everything…
She loves playing with toys, wrestling with her pug buddy, puggy skuttling and will even jump into shallow water for a puggy paddle and a swim…
Kikko says that she knows how to use a doggy door and will sit wait and stay…
And she is great with dog friendly cats yay…
Little kids and big kids Kikko loves…
She understands how to be gentle and give out pug hugs…
Strutting her stuff on walkies she loves to say hello to everyone and of course everyone loves to say hello to such a cute little pug….
Kikko has enjoyed attending many Pug Rescue events where she has been a social butterfly…
She loves cuddles and pats and finding a lap or a soft bed to lie….
So Kikko says that if she sounds like the little pocket rocket princess puggy for you….
Please send an adoption enquiry for her to Pug Rescue…
