Male Dog, Pit Bull Terrier
Pit Bull Terrier / Hound / Mixed
Description:
George is all dressed for the Christmas season and what he really wants is a home of his own. He has had a very hard life from his days as a puppy tied to a wreck of a doghouse to ending up in our local, crowded animal control facility. Foster Shannon knew George as a hungry puppy and left food for him as often as she could. She even provided an igloo dog house to give him better shelter. Finally, he was removed from his home and was getting a chance at adoption. Unfortunately, George was diagnosed with heartworm and combined with his breed(pit mix), was literally hours from euthanasia due to lack of funding and too many animals. No adopters wanted to take on the $1000+ bill for treatment. Luckily, Shannon realized he was the same puppy she helped years ago and volunteered to be his foster home so he could go through his treatment. We pulled him based on his sweet personality and he has just completed his heartworm treatment and been neutered. George is now about 4 years old, loves to play, walks well on a leash and is dog and cat friendly. He greets each person with a wagging tail and his wide smile and would do well in most households. Please put in your application at kindnessmattersrescue.org and we will contact you immediately. Please remember that all animals in your home must be up to date on rabies and distemper and be neutered. Adoption info at kindnessmattersrescue.org
