So some of you might have noticed a playful white Japanese Spitz hanging around the door at our Jurong outlet? Well, thats Kenji and hes looking for a new home!
This is Kenji’s story: He is a 2 year old Japanese Spitz, imported from Australia. He was bought by a family and was very well cared for by them. That is until the parents started facing problems. Furkids are also innocent victims of broken families, unfortunately 
So, Kenji’s owner had to put him up for adoption. Kenji has come to us for his grooming and also pet supplies since he was a 3 month old puppy, we could not bear to see him go to an organisatin that might put him down due to resources constraints and over crowding so we took him in.
Kenji has been with us for a couple of weeks, and he is adjusting nicely. We think he likes it here because there are always new people to sayang him, plenty of toys to play with (he just pulls them out of the basket of toys we have for sale on the sales floor =_= apparently, they are ALL his) and nice jiejies who buy treats for him out of their own wages. He also never misses out on grooming sessions and baths now. We love having him here, but the fact is Kenji needs a new home, regardless.
For one thing, he has to be locked up in a cage at night. He is then left alone the whole night in the dark after the shop closes. When we get busy with grooming and customers or when we are short of manpower, he might miss out on his walks. Some customers also literally run screaming out of the store (hahaha, usually kids) because they think he is going to bite them and he is bigger than them when all he really wants is to say hi. He has managed to run out twice when a customer left the door open and he slipped out. Luckily he found his way back both times.
Kenji is an amazingly sweet dog who loves a game of fetch and doesnt whine or bark much. He is also newspaper trained. He knows basic commands like Sit, Paw and Stay. He has had his full course of vaccinations and comes with papers. He also comes with a large carrier and leash and harness.
However, interested parties must take note that his thick coat requires much maintenance. He sheds a fair bit, so he needs to be brushed out regularly. Kenji is also a little ball of energy. He needs a family preferably with kids who can afford the time and effort to play with him. He gets bored easily and has had a history of biting his paw out of boredem (yes, till it bleeds).
He is NOT for free. He can be rehomed for $880 to parties who are suitable. The price tag is mainly to reimburse some of the costs the owner has incurred in his maintenance. It is also to discourage people from taking him in without seriously considering the responsibilities. We reserve the rights to screen potential owners.
