Thankfully, in New Zealand, we are not overwhelmed with the need to re-home or rescue Munsterlanders.
What seems to occur however, is that whenever we have a litter on the ground, we have a telephone call from either an owner, the SPCA, or a pound wanting a home for a Munster that has fallen on hard times.
We have subsequently rehomed Mickey to a gentleman who works nights - therefore Mickey is hunted all throughout the day - rail, hail or sun. Mickey has certainly benefitted from the extra work and company and I am presently hunting around for a decent photo to link up of this marvellous dog.
Lass's Story
In the midst of trying to find good, kind homes, we had a frantic phone call from a breeder, through ill-health had ceased to breed. A bitch he had bred some years earlier was in desparate need of a home. Hunted daily, she was an absolute joy, however unfortunately, her handler had been stricken with cancer and had been admitted to hospital for the final time. We duly got in touch with the gentleman's wife who was gutted to hand over her husband's dog, but understood what was best for the dog. This was a very hard placement, as the bitch was a little older. By some sort of miracle, we were contacted by people who had Munsters in England, and were keen for another. However, due to business and travel committments, they weren't keen on a puppy - that was out of the question - but they would love an adult! HEY PRESTO - Lass now lives on 7 acres just outside Auckland and is spoilt rotten!
