Little bit backwards in this weeks addition of the market rant! Usually, this time of year brings piles of new listings and additions to the inventory level, but this week saw quite the opposite. Products across the board reduced in numbers, with vacant lots taking the most significant hit. In other news, things are still looking good out there! The average time listings are spending on the market is down, values are holding steady, and the absorption rate continues to rocket to the bottom. Listings that accepted offers this week reported below average for this time of year, which makes this the third week in a row that certain market factors have reported lacklustre. Luckily, the late winter market was hot, and the momentum carried into Spring, so we are still enjoying market impact from that activity. We are bound to have a few questionable weeks, it just comes at a time that is usually exploding with activity. For now, it remains tepid. Stay tuned to see if the market continues to heat up! Thanks for stopping by! The Weekly Adogtable!Echo arrived at our shelter back in January at a mere 68lbs! We were blessed to have many homes lined up for this cutie but - as it turns out - we learned that Echo is very particular about her housemates and presented several health concerns that needed to be addressed. With the right treatment, Echo began to thrive. Her personality blossomed! She begs staff for pets and belly rubs and frequently goes out for walks with volunteers - greeting them with her gentle, playful nature. After months of hard work getting her healthy (+20lbs!!!), it is time to find a family who will love and care for her as much as we do! Experience with large breed dogs is an asset; however, these are her must-have adoption requirements: - No other animals in the home - Children must be over the age of 10 - Companionship throughout the day: max. 4hrs alone Aside from gobbling 6-8 cups of food per day, owners should be prepared to spend approximately $250/month on medications to keep this gal rolling: - Digestive Enzymes added to each meal - Vetmedin pills twice daily As Echo struggled to gain weight, she was diagnosed with Exocrine Pancreatic Insufficiency (EPI). Her pancreas doesn't produce digestive enzymes so, in order to digest and absorb nutrients, digestive enzymes must be added to each meal. When laboured breathing was noted at one of her check-ups, a cardiac ultrasound showed this lady suffers from Dilated Cardiomyopathy (DCM). In DCM, parts of the heart become enlarged and weaker at pumping blood throughout the body. Her heart is essentially working at 49% capacity. Vetmedin increases the strength of the heart and dilates blood vessels, allowing more oxygenated blood to leave the heart and reach her tissues. Please note that Echo's heart condition puts her at greater risk for a Spay procedure. Therefore, she will be adopted intact, with her best interest in mind, and a non-breeding agreement must be signed. Owners should expect and understand she will be going through heat cycles. Compatible applicants will be interviewed by an HBCP representative. Please note a home visit may be requested. We are quite a small team, so please refrain from calling about this pup. Applications can be submitted at http://citypound.ca/adoption-application/ and will be closed once several great candidates have applied. This "cuddly companion" is available through Homeward Bound City Pound, a non profit rescue organization from Halifax, Nova Scotia.
