Mr Victor Bokulic

By email only:    [FOI #8920 email]

 

 

Dear Mr Bokulic

 

Official Information Request – RFS 3917484

 

Thank you for your email received 23 October 2018. Your request has been
referred to Legal Services for consideration under the provisions of the
Local Government Official Information and Meetings Act 1987 (“the
LGOIMA”). 

 

Your request

 

Regarding dogs impounded at Kaitaia and Horeke pounds.

 

1.       Number of dogs euthanised by month from Jan 1st 2018 to Oct 22nd
2018.

 

2.       Number of dogs that died by month while in pounds from Jan 1st
2018 to Oct 22nd 2018. Also the reason why the dogs died while impounded.

 

3.       Number of dogs rehomed by FNDC , not dogs that were taken by a
rescue group or SPCA by month from Jan 1st 2018 to Oct 22nd 2018.

 

4.       Number of dogs taken to be rehomed from a rescue group and SPCA
by month from Jan 1st 2018 to Oct 22nd 2018.

 

Council’s response

 

Please refer to the attached document for the answer to your questions.
The figures include those dogs that are euthanised for the following
reasons:

·         surrendered by their owner for destruction

·         found  unsuitable for rehoming as a result of failing the
behaviour assessment

·         court ordered

·         those that do not go to the pound as they are not well (ie parvo
positive or welfare concern) and were taken to a vet in the first instance
resulting in a vet decision to euthanise.

·         Dogs died in pound – generally the reason being is suspected
parvo, however we do not test already deceased dogs.

 

Thank you for your enquiry.

 

Yours faithfully
