URGENT situation for two senior dogs - owner lost home CT

CT SENIOR DOGS NEED HOME - a man named Brendan lost his job and his home and is moving into a room for rent in Bristol next to a day labor place. He was crying on the phone he has no place for his 2 dogs Brodie an almost 11 year old pitbull he has had him since 8 weeks old and Katie a boxer hound mix he rescued from Katrina. she is 7years old. He is desperately trying not to bring them to the pound he can't handle that he has exhausted all possibilties and needs some help. They are both friendly Brendan would love to get his dogs back when he gets on his feet but also knows that might not be possible but he can't imagine his life without them. This is a heartbreaking situation. He did not neuter the male the female is spayed. Sadie Mae would be more then willing to pay for him to be neutere3d if we could work together and find a safe place for them. can you imagine having your dog for 11 years and being in this situation :(

PLEASE email: jig21@att.net if you can foster or offer help for these two dogs.

Senior Dogs Who Need Homes or Foster homes at Philadelphia SPCA

These senior dogs could sure use a break!  Can't Adopt? then how about fostering an older laid back dog?
here are some of the current senior dogs that would LOVE to be with you for the holidays and maybe even longer.  Contact: katherine.acct@gmail.com if you can help!

Sha Sha - URGENT

Sha Sha (14328825) is a schnauzer type mix that was surrendered to the shelter because now that she's 12 years old, her owners no longer have time for her. Poor Sha Sha is clearly missing her family! She had lived with children and other dogs, so she's quite lonely here in a kennel all by herself. According to her former owner, Sha Sha is crate trained and loves to go for walks. She's energetic for a old girl, but also likes to just lay by your feet. She has some minor hair loss due to fleas and her fur is a bit matted. This poor senior girl deserves to be loved again! Seniors decline quickly at the shelter and deserve a chance to live out their golden years- Sha Sha needs rescue ASAP!

Charlie - URGENT
Poor Charlie (14490004) was found emaciated and filthy in an abandon house. It's pretty clear that he hasn't been cared for in quite a while, but Charlie has a ton of love to give. He's a big brindle Cane Corso, around 7-10 years old.
King- URGENT

Poor King (14492542), a male 13 year old German Shepherd- Chow mix, was abandoned by his owner when they moved out, and sadly for King, he had to come here. King is not thrilled with being here, and is too scared to solicit attention or open up to anyone--can you blame him? After 13 years in one home, he suddenly found himself in one of the loudest and most stressful environments a dog, of any age, could be in! King would certainly be happy to have a grooming--he has mats all around his neck and up behind his ears. Please don't leave this old man here...King deserves his home again!

Monet
MONET (A14436742) here! Just wanted to introduce myself and tell you that I'm staying at ACCT for a little bit till I find my family. So, about me, I'm an adult (about seven years old) Terrier/Pit Bull Mix that my owners could no longer afford to keep. I'm pretty good with other dogs, in fact, I came in with another dog. If you already have a dog, ask my friends at ACCT about bringing him/her in to meet me! I'm not very interested in cats, so maybe I could live with them too! Really I'm just a friendly gal who needs a fresh start! I know I'm a little big for a lap dog, but sometimes I can't help myself, I just
LOVE to cuddle!

URGENT: Bubba is a senior shepherd mix who came to the shelter in the beginning of October 2011.

When Bubba's owner died, his neighbor took him in but was unable to care for him.
Bubba is most likely house broken and seems to like other dogs. He seeks affection from people and wants to nuzzle his head into your lap.
Unfortunately, Bubba has not had an easy life and wasn't cared for very well.
He has horrible teeth and has difficulty eating hard food. He is blind in one eye, from a cataract.
He has open sores on his back, legs, and neck.
They are irritated and because of this, he scratches, which has made them even worse.
Bubba is currently on medication for the infections.
Additionally, one of Bubba's hind legs is not functioning correctly and he either doesn't use it,
or it bends at the knee and is flat on the ground.
Bubba is desperate to get out of the shelter into a home where he can be comfortable in his golden years.

BATMAN! This older gentleman is just a happy-go-lucky shepherd.

While he is obviously overweight, he loves to prance around and chase balls.
Batman is good with other dogs and can be tested with cats.
Batman is likely housebroken, comes when called, and is great with all kinds of body handling.
Batman would make the perfect companion for someone who is looking for a dog to lounge around with
or even a family looking to add another member. Batman is already neutered and can go home today!

Foster or Adopt Special Needs kitty age 7 named OREO really cute black white cat

OREO Needs Home or Rescue ASAP

CONTACT: Dina, at Hooch0312@yahoo.com

Oreo (7-yr. old neutered male) was brought to the vet by his family a few months ago because he seemed sick and wasn't himself...he was diagnosed as diabetic, and the family was told what needed to be done: a brief hospitalization to regulate the blood, and that he would be insulin dependent afterward. The biggest expense is the few days in the hospital, but after the initial care, it isn't expensive to keep a diabetic cat on insulin in the long term. They took him home and did not vet him.

Today, they brought him back, much thinner, sicker, and declined treatment for him (picture was taken today, 12/19/2011). They opted to euthanize him, instead. Our vet and the caring staff felt that this kitty is treatable and that he can live a healthy life with an owner who is willing to give him insulin--they do NOT want to euthanize him. They had the family sign him over into their care, and they will hospitalize him and get his blood sugar back in line. They are hoping a rescue or family is out there to take him--QUICKLY.
Insulin is not expensive, and the vet staff can help teach any new family or rescue how to give insulin--it is VERY SIMPLE! You would be given instruction on feeding and diet. It is also a GREAT PLUS that this cat is not overweight, as many diabetic cats are!
There will be NO CHARGE for the medical care, courtesy of our caring Vet, they just want to see him saved and go to someone who will love him!
Time is of the essence, as he cannot stay at the hospital for long!

contact:  Sarah at dublin7decoy7@yahoo.com

Hi Sarah with OCC All Retriever Rescue in Cornwall NY. We took in an owner surrender last Sunday Blu a soon to be 10 year old black male lab. Owner had cancer and can no longer care for him. He is confused but settles and is a GREAT dog. We had blood work done and everything came back great, except he does have Lyme which we are treating him for.
Blu is 139 lbs and is great with people but seems to be bipolar when it comes to other dogs. He does great with most but than when he is done he is done and snapped at the fosters dogs. We were told he was good with other dogs when we took him in. Owner is in the hospital .We do not have any foster home without dogs so I have no where for him to go. We were going to pay to kennel him but he has never been crated and he freaked out trying to chew the kennel's wire, barking non stop.
We are trying to find a foster or forever home for him with no other pets, if you know anyone who might be able to help us we would beyond appreciate your help.

Hi meet Camby. He is a Golden Retreiver mix, approximately 8 yrs. young,and 48lbs. He gets along with dogs, cats (he actually has no interest in cats) and children and just loves life. He is a great companion. Our boy Camby has come a long way and has been disappointed by his human owners in his prior life. Camby was dropped off at a high kill shelter along with his buddy who is a purebreed Havanese. The dumped these dogs off and just drove away laughing. Camby and his canine friend were separated in the kennel and all he did was cry for his friend who left the shelter the second day he was there because he was a purebreed and Camby was left behind because he is not. Saving Paws Rescue came to Camby's rescue and took him out of the shelter and placed him in a home with children, dogs and a loving caring family. This is a temporary home for Camby, he is ready and well adjusted to live his life with a loving family.  Please contact:  savingpawsrescueinc@yahoo.com for adoption information.

Foster or Adopt Max, an 11 year old labrador mix owner surrender in PA

 
From Max's owner -  I have an 11 year old lab that desperately needs a new home. I'm moving and cannot take him with me and my parents will not take care of him when I leave. They got me the dog when I was very young and left everything up to me to take care of him but I cannot take him with me. it absolutely breaks my heart and I do not want to get rid of him but I have no other choice. his name is max and he is literally the sweetest dog I've ever met. he loves children, other dogs, cats, ducks (we used to have one named daisy that slept in his dog house with him) and he's never bitten or even humped anything. he has been outside his whole life because my parents didn't allow him inside. If you can foster or adopt Max, please email joansdogs@aol.com as soon as possible for an application.  thanks!

 Meet Abbey. She is a lab/pointer mix. She weighs about 30 pounds, she's 13, spayed, well-behaved and housebroken. She's an extremely sweet dog with lots of love, but we are no longer able to give her a home. My fiance and I are getting married and we are moving on Dec. 17 to a place that only allows one dog. We have another in addition to Abbey and we have chosen to keep her.

UPDATE ADOPTED!!!! Coco, a 14 year old chocolate labrador

Meet Coco, a 14 year old PB chocolate labrador retriever. Coco is Good w/ other dogs and good with children. Not tested with cats.
Housebroken: Unknown
Has a little trouble standing up but once he is up, he is good to go for a walk.

For those of us who have pets and love our animals, it's hard to think of ANYTHING we wouldn't do for them if they needed it. Unfortunately, there are some people who don't feel that way, and one of those was Coco's owner. Coco was originally picked up as a stray and was taken in at a nearby animal shelter. His owner came to see if he was there and found him, but when they heard that he was required to get a 10.00 rabies vaccine before leaving, their response was "He's not worth it. Just keep him". Coco is 14 YEARS OLD and belonged to the same owner his entire life.
COCO is located in Kentucky and transport is available to the northeast.
Bowling Green-Warren County Humane Society, Bowling Green, KY
Would you like to foster Coco so that he can leave the shelter and live out the rest of his life in comfort?
Please email joansdogs@aol.com for a foster application.

Apollo, in shelter for a year, nice black lab X needs foster or forever home! location PA

 Apollo is ten years old, he ended up at Griffin Pond Animal Shelter after his owner of ten years died. Apollo and another dog, a Great Dane, were left without an owner. The Great Dane was placed in a home right away, and poor Apollo sits in the pound. He is not neutered, he is up to date on his shots. He is not your typical ten year old, you would never guess he was ten, he is very energetic and active. He has the cutest fuzzy face, with a hint of gray. He has gone through some training, which I took him to. He will sit, lay down and stay if you work with him to remember. He does pull when he walks for the first fifteen minutes, then he will slow down and walk beside you, he just needs to get the restless out of his system when he first comes out of the cage, then he walks well. He does get along with other dogs, the trainer and I tested him and we had him in a play area with other dogs and he was fine. Also when I was training with him, he was fine with all the other dogs, and the other owners adored him and felt bad for him because of his story. He doesn't care for cats, but I don't know if he would harm them. I think he is just interested in chasing them. He is a good boy, he loves to have his backend scratched, he will stand there and sway his butt back and forth when you are scratching him. He also likes to walk through small puddles, it is so cute. The poor fellow doesn't know what has happened. He went from a great home to sitting in the pound without his Great Dane buddy, and his owner. I try and get there and walk him as much as I can, but he needs more attention, and has been at the pound for a while now. I am hoping this story and his pictures will help get him out of the pound and into a good permanent home or a foster home. please contact martinthewarrior2004@yahoo.com if you can help him!

Three Senior Dogs at Liberty Humane Society in NJ need homes or rescue

 Conan (9-10 yrs, neutered male, pit bull mix): is an older pit mix, who has been us since September. He's sweet old gentle soul with a heart of gold. He's good with most dogs but he really relishes human attention. No handling or food guarding issues. Conan is somewhere around 9-10 years. His hips have a low range of motion so he does have trouble with stairs. Upon physical exam our vet felt and rotated his hips & fortunately concluded that while his motion is limited he's not in any pain. Conan is incontinent though. Because of this he has been adopted out & returned, as well as immediately returned from foster homes expressing interest. We're worried that we won't be able to find a home willing to take on a project like Conan & we don't want him to continue to wallow away in a cage all day. His petfinder bio is here: http://www.petfinder.com/petdetail/21344890








 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

 This chow chow is JoJo. Before and after pics to the left.
 (14 yrs, Male intact, Chow Chow): Poor, poor Jojo. Yesterday his guardians decided to bring him in for euthanasia. Besides entering the facility all rigidity and matted, he seemed to be in good spirits. Something just wasn't adding up. When asked why they wanted to sign him over for euthanasia, his former guardians replied that they just didn't have time for him anymore. They said he didn't have any health problems, but that his hips are bad & he does have trouble with stairs, but they just can't deal with him anymore. Even though Jojo is 14 yrs old, we figured we shouldn't just give up on him just yet! He doesn't seem like he's ready to give up himself, so it was decided he wouldn't be euthanized. Liberty Humane Society may not be in a position to provide him with what he needs in his final years, we figured we have to at least reach out & see if there is someone out there for him -- even if his former guardians won't. Jojo aced his behavior eval. He's not your typical stoic Chow Chow, oh no! Although he's a little painful in the hind end & distracted in this shelter, he seems to enjoy human company quite well. He's low-key & loves to have his head massaged & rubbed. No resource guarding issues either. He was immediately sent up to the groomers yesterday to get a new hairdo, & some much need relief. Attached are some quick before & after pics. Please share with all your senior & chow chow contacts!

Meet Tyrone aka Tyrus.

Tyrus (14-16 yrs, Male intact, Pit Bull Mix): Tyrus came to us on 11/19/11 on a day when owner surrenders were coming in left & right. When his former guardians were asked why they we're getting rid of Tyrus we were provided with a slew of reasons ranging from: new baby, can't afford, to can't handle anymore. There was also conflicting info on age. It was one baffling owner surrender! The staff did follow-up the next day to try & get confirmation on which age listed was correct, and were told at that time that he could be anywhere from 13-16 yrs. Tyrus's surrender profile revealed that he was regularly left alone for 5-6 hrs a day, seemed content when alone, is house broken, described as lazy, friendly with kids, playful with strangers, accustomed to brushing, gets along with other animals, and has no history of any behavior or medical problems. Tyrus did amazing on his behavior eval as well. He definitely has plenty of spunk left and he looooves tennis balls! He's hips aren't the greatest either, but he gets around just fine. No food guarding or any signs of aggression what-so-ever. There is just something about Tyrus that is very enamoring! I dare you to meet him, and not to fall in love.

Adopt Kia, great 7 year old female PB Yellow labrador

 Kia, a 7 year old female yellow lab is in need of a new home.  She is well trained, goes "potty" on command and is great with kids of all ages.  She gets along with both dogs and cats and only issues a "woof" when there is someone at the door to alert you to a visitor.  She knows both verbal and hand signal commands for: sit, stay, come, lie down, roll over, play dead, high five and will wait to eat her food until you give the "go ahead" command.  She's a sweet girl who loves to cuddle.  Kia loves to be outside: in the summer to swim and in the winter with her snow boots playing in the snow.  She is more white than yellow and has a pink nose.  Kia is on a heartguard and frontline routine monthly.  Sadly we are in the military and cannot take her on our next move. please email joansdogs@aol.com if you are interested in adopting this wonderful dog!

Big Grey Cat needs indoor home or rescue, senior male losing fur living outside in Phil PA

Meet "Big Gray." He's old and has been around the neighborhood for quite some time he is very gentle and social (wants to come in the house all the time and always rubs my legs) so I believe he was once owned by someone. After I had him neutered by Forgotten Cats in September he started losing his hair-could it be hormonal because of the testostorone loss? Anyway he looks pretty bad but he has beautiful clear emerald green eyes and an all grey coat (what's left of it). (my photos are bad-everytime I aimed he would follow after me!) He enjoys eating and curls up in the makeshift shelter on my back porch. He really needs a warm home before Winter-I am very worried for him since he has lost most of his coat. I really do not want him put down-he has lots of life left in him-he just needs a warm home and a caring person. If you know anyone who takes in old or "special needs" cats please show them his photo. I would appreciate anything your organization can do to help. Thank you-Michelle

P.S.-I would be willing to help pay for his food if someone reputable would take him in.

Senior Male Labrador Retriever needs rescue or foster/home

The New Britain dog pound picked-up a dog on the street last week. It is a male, senior black Labrador. Said to be a sweet dog, but he is old. The owner could not be located and his time is up at the pound.

If anyone has interest in fostering this sweet old man, please email me as soon as possible. He doesn't have much time left. Since he is a senior, he may be a long term foster. So please keep that in mind before you volunteer to foster him.
