ack in 2022 we rescued a gorgeous boy in Bosnia call Pongo. In 2023 this lucky boy found a lovely foster home and they fell in love with him so much they adopted him

Pongo's owner has made the heartbreaking decision to ask us to find a new home for Pongo as sadly Pongo's human dad is suffering with dementia and is giving him all sorts of food that he shouldn't be having. This has caused Pongo to now become quite overweight and despite regular walks he is now struggling with his weight.

Pongo is very much a loved boy and although his owners are heartbroken they realise that with the stage of dementia they are facing, Pongo urgently needs a new home.

Pongo is a typical lab and is a big foodie anyway which doesn't help! He is now 8 years old and he is great with other dogs, people and children.

When he came to the UK he had chronic ear disease and fairly recently had a haematoma operation, while he was under the vet's gave his ears a good clean and this is managed with regular cleaning.

Pongo is currently in Magor Wales but we can help with travel to a foster home.

He urgently needs a foster home to help him lose some weight so his health doesn't suffer further. He is currently 40kgs. He has been in a home for a while now and loves his comforts so would really struggle if he ends up in kennels
