“Kind but ill-mannered”, is what the advertisement on the county board’s website says about the one-and-a-half-year-old dog.
May double this year
During 2023, the County Administrative Board in Västernorrland made 25 decisions on the disposal of animals. Already halfway into 2024, you are up to last year’s entire figure.

“Calm and stable in his current pack of dogs. Was scared and shy at the veterinary examination but could be examined.”
The review applies to another, younger mixed breed dog that the county administrative board is selling. Price: SEK 3,000.
Makes demands on new owners
During the pandemic, the number of decisions on care increased, but then decreased during the last year. But now the numbers are turning upwards again.
The dogs on the county board’s side are sold when there is an acceptable interested party.
