A Second Chance for GUS

  • Latest news on Gus

      15 October 2017

    The latest news on Gus is that the vet is reassessing whether he is a good candidate for surgery. We need to be sure that Gus will be able to cope post-surgery because at the moment he can walk and play with other dogs but this will be restricted for weeks, possibly months, after surgery. The operation and aftercare would be in Christchurch so we would have to place Gus with a new foster family and we are not sure if such upheaval is the best thing for Gus right now.

    In the meantime Gus is trialling new pain medication the vet has recommended and getting lots of love from his caregiver. Second Chance is committed to giving Gus the best and most comfortable years that he has left.

    We love this this image of Gus drawn by Jane Smith of Chocolate Dog on the first day of her current 100 Days Project.

    Jane will paint, draw or caricature a Rescue Pup every day for 100 Days.
