Where is your rescue? Could he be flown in if enough money was raised?
MicroTech shampoo stopped my allergic reaction to our dog.
Someone will adopt him now that his story is out. I’d consider it myself but I’m all dogged up at present:)

That picture looks somehow very out of proportion, his head looks twice as large as it should compared to the rest of his body, in my opinion.
Dinovite. I hear it advertised on the radio all the time. Seriously though, does anyone have any experience with this stuff? We are thinking about trying it on one of our beagles. He scratches all the time, but the stuff isn’t cheap. If it works and makes him more comfortable we would gladly spend the money.
Seems like a shabby way to treat him.
Looking out the living room window one day, Johnny noticed two dogs copulating in the middle of the street. “Hey, Dad, what are those dogs doing?” Johnny inquired. Embarrassed, his father replied, “The dog in in the rear has sore paws, and the dog in front is helping him across the street.” To which Johnny replied, “Ain’t that like a friend, you try to give him a break, and he screws you every time!”
beautiful dog. I hope he finds a couple of nice kids to spend the rest of his life with. I hope by now someone has called the local GSD rescue and they’ve bailed him out of jail.
i have volunteered in shelters. people put down fake reasons for surrenders all the time. they just don’t want to put down ‘we don’t want to take care of him anymore’.
if pets are considered kids’ responsibilities when (WHEN) the kids lose interest the parents haven’t ever recognized the pets were ultimately their responsibilities and that’s when fido or fluffy gets turned in. some get them very young and don’t want to pay for spays/neuters to mellow behavior, so they get turned in.
many ways to rationalize it.
all’my guys are rescues. i vowed to all that this was their forever home. no matter what. i’d make sure i would always take care of them if i was alive.
A dog or cat is a commitment - you buy it, you take on the obligation to take care of that animal until the end of it’s life, or you undertake to find a good new home for the animal. A shelter which will euthanize the animal does not qualify as a good new home. I think a lot of the people who take their animals down to shelters which euthanize would gladly have flushed their dog or cat down the toilet as they doubtless did with their goldfish, if only the animal fit.
I don’t care much for dogs but the owners in this situation are trash...pure trash. It doesn’t seem like there are very many decent people in this country anymore.
I hate people like this. They stink.
This is a low-volume list so dont worry!
