From Koba's Foster:
Koba was surrendered to PACC by his owners for euthanasia because they said he had hip arthritis.
He is a senior we got out of PACC a few months ago.
Koba has 2 torn ligaments in one of his knees and needs surgery to repair them. Terri is guessing her Mexico surgeon will charge about $1600.00
He is by no means in the "euthanasia" category. He is happy all the time. He loves to go for walks, he jumps up and spins around (to the best of his ability) when he is excited. He is friendly and sweet to all. My dogs and human family loved him from day one- he just has that kind of easy going personality that anyone would love.
He gets panicky when we go anywhere because he thinks he will be left somewhere. I think this is because he was dumped at PACC. I can leave my front door wide open and he won't take off. The furthest he will go is beside you in the front yard. He is in inside/outside dog here. He uses the doggy door and comes and goes as he pleases. He loves to sit outside on the porch and relax in even halfway decent weather.
Every time you walk by him -and I mean EVERY time- his tail wags and he rolls over for you to rub his belly or just give him any attention. He gets me most every time. You just can't resist his charm.
He is about 9 and does have problems associated with age like cataracts and muscle wasting in his hind legs, but he has lots of life left. He even plays a little still.
Thank you for taking the time to read his story and donating. Every little bit helps.
