Our response

 

Please refer to the attached spreadsheet for answers to your queries.
Please note that it is possible that at times dogs are taken in at one
pound and later moved to the other. Please also note that the figures for
Horeke and Kaitaia pound will not equal the ‘total’ as some dogs after an
initial record is made are then returned to an owner prior to reaching the
shelter. This can also occur when owners have surrendered their dog for
immediate destruction.

 

Thank you for your enquiry.

 

Yours faithfully

Dear Carla Ditchfield-Hunia,

 

Thank you for the figures for the pound and it is good to see improvements
in all areas from past historical statistics.

 

Can you please send the data for both Horeke Pound and Kaitaia Pound as
stated in point 7. "Number of Impounded Dogs rehomed to each agency
including Agency/Rescue name for each month" . Could you please break the
numbers down to include the rescue agency name that dogs have been
transferred / handed over from the pound to be rehomed and the numbers.
