Rescue or Adopt Charlie, senior chow chow mix Nashville TN

This big guy is named Charley. He is purebred 8 year old neutered male, heartworm negative. His owners left him behind when their house was foreclosed on. They left him chained to a tree in the front yard with a metal pot for water, a plastic dog house, and food on the ground. I picked him up one day last summer when the temperatures got up to over 100 degrees and heat index was horrible. The neighbors said he would just sit and cry at night and they would have to feed him to keep him from going hungry. The humane society would not do anything for him because he did get fed once a month. The vet said he is developing cataracts on his eyes. He's an awesome dog and is very content just knowing someone is around to visit him daily. When he was taken to the vet, he did very well until I left the room. He is very co-dependent upon his owner and he was raised around kids. He does play rough with the kids so I wouldn't recommend any child younger than a teenager. He don't like being around other dogs. He may be fine one minute but very aggressive the next with them. He's does great by himself. He is also good with strangers. We would love help placing this gentleman because he has been with us almost a year and he deserves a permanent home full of love and attention after what he has been through. If you could be so kind to do a courtesy post or know of anyone that has the "chow knowledge" and would be interested in adopting him, please have them contact lindablessing2000@hotmail.com. (FYI: Charley has been staying with me since I found him and he sleeps in a floored horse stall, right behind the house, entirely of his own equipped with a huge doggie bed, food, water, and two dog houses. Since he doesn't do well with other dogs we had no choice but to put him in the barn. He stays warm in the winter, cool in the summer and he is put on a lead that lets him roam from one end of the barn to the other and out in the back yard. He seems to just be content "sitting and watching" the other dogs. He too gets his play time daily and his special treats. None of the other fosters would take him so I have cared for him and provided for his needs.)

URGENT!Two 13 year old store cats to become homeless as store closes

NINJA and SAMANTHA will soon be homeless as the store they lived in is closing and they have NO place to go. These cats are brother and sister! They have always been together! Always lived in the Store. THEY are 13 years old. In good health. Very active. Spayed and vaccinated. A quiet home would be great. Please contact Carrie if you can rescue or adopt them at oecb116cr@yahoo.com

Poor Sandy (A15915744) is a sad ~8-10 year old mash up of what looks like a bizarre shepherd mix! She was surrendered because her owners could no longer afford to care for her, and now she’s been abandoned at ACCT. Sandy is surprisingly spunky, considering how sad and scared she looks in her kennel; when it comes to time outside, she’s always ready to go! Sandy appears to be housebroken, and, per her former owner, is good with cats, dogs, and lived with older children. She’s a special case girl — she is deaf, so she would need to go to a home that would understand her condition, and help her when she needs it. http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7211/6907565722_0e1f151404_z.jpg http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7198/7053658563_cb73f3dfd0_z.jpg http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7129/7053923743_13eb6bbb51_z.jpg IF YOU CAN HELP PLEASE CONTACT wjvolunteers@yahoo.com

13 year old wishbone needs rescue or home!!!!

MEET Wishbone. Wishbone is wise and will listen patiently. He will also help you keep part of your resolutions (remember them?) with a few easy walks a week. But the best part of rescuing or adopting Wishbone will be the joy you both feel when you walk him out of the shelter and into the sunlight. You will see his nose twitch at the new smells and your heart will skip a beat. Good karma will settle on your shoulders and Wishbone's tail will be wagging furiously. Such a simple act yet life-changing for two beings who need each other (and don't know it yet) Every day Wishbone is in the shelter is one less day he is with you. It is one less day Wishbone has to lay in the sun. It is one less day that you wear the mantle of pay it forward. Finally, each day Wishbone spends at the shelter increases the likelihood that when he leaves it will be in a bag and not on a leash. Animals are in extreme crisis right now- and you know Wishbone deserves better than dying in a shelter. You don't want to die in a charity nursing home, do you? Grant Wishbone the only wish he has- a nice life with nice people. Easy enough, isn't it? Easier than algebra, being polite when you call customer service and talk to someone 10,000 miles away and DEFINITELY easier than making a seven layer cake. So get in touch ASAP! Even if you can only foster for a week or two- it MATTERS because Wishbone MATTERS. Please share with others who know that old dogs are the best. Like fine wine, they are mellow, rich, and so smooth. We will help you help Wishbone. Email us atpar3@yahoo.com ASAP. WOOF. Thank you.

Adopt Schewby adorable female senior pit mix

Her story will touch you and hopefully capture your heart; you won't be able to let her go. Schewby was given to us by her owner who was living out of a car and had no other choice but turn her in to us. It took him a while to come to that decision, but he ultimately knew that was no life for her. We hate to see dogs part from their families, especially at her tender age of 13 years. Unfortunately, she has been here for over 3 months, too long to live in a kennel. That is why we would love to see her go home to a loving family sooner rather than later. Schewby loves the company of people so much, she'd rather be the only canine in her new home than have another canine companion. She is sweet as pie and simply enjoys the company of people. We are looking for a home that will take her as she is, which is a spectacular dog with a wonderful temperament. If you are in the market for an easy going golden gal, then look no further. Schewby is waiting for a caring family willing to fill her last few years with happiness and love. please contact: For more information, contact Alice at AliceAKrieger@aol.com or Doris at Pupkit3@aol.com . Vet references will be required.

Adorable Senior Doxie Piglet needs foster/rescue/adopter now

35453-Piglet | Athenspets.net www.athenspets.net Piglet is just a little nugget looking for a lap to cuddle in forever. She couldn’t be a calmer, more sweet dog. She certainly isn’t a grumpy old lady! Piglet is so tiny and quiet you may walk by her cage at the shelter without noticing there’s anyone in there, but she is definitely worth a second look! Piglet would make a great companion for anyone looking for a relaxed, mature, quiet new friend! Volunteer Update: If you want to spend a quiet spring day with your best friend Piglet is your girl. She is always ready to go on a walk; I admit it is a slow walk, but we all need to slow down and just enjoy the day. Even though she does not mind walking, she does not object to being carried. She loves cuddling in a lap in the warm sun. She and volunteers spent a large portion of the day just sitting on a bench soaking up the sun. Piglet is very popular and even though she is an older lady, she was always ready to go when a volunteer entered her kennel. CALL ONLY IF YOU CAN RESCUE Phone: 706 613-3540 Athens – Clarke County Animal Control 125 Buddy Christian Way Athens , Georgia 30605

Contact Liz at lizzy.mayer@yahoo.com if you want to adopt Ike. Meet Ike. He is an older Corgi and belongs to one of my best friends. She has a two year old who is having terrible trouble with his ears and allergies and the doctors recommended that they try to find a home for their pets. I know it will be difficult due to his age, but I am hoping there is someone out there that would like a companion. Ike has been neutered and is up to date on his shots. He is accustomed to the pet door but he also knows to let someone know if he needs to go out. When he goes to his Grandmother’s he stands by the door to go out. Liz is just looking for a good home for Ike where he will be loved. He just needs a quiet, older couple that can love him and not a family with kids.
