Urgent Death Row Dogs

This little guy was a family member who was well trained.....and he will be euthanized without a rescuer....

***On The List Again Tonight***
Ross is a puppy and puppies naturally have a LOT of energy - is that a good reason to kill them? As with human children, Ross needs guidance, and someone to teach him 'right' from 'wrong' and most of all how to 'play well with others'! A Volunteer writes: "...He's extremely friendly and just loves to be cuddled, wiggling his butt with pleasure as I rub his side and getting up beside me on the bench to offer lots of eager kisses. Clearly Ross' former owner gave him some training as he keeps a spotless den and once we're outside, takes care of his bathroom duties promptly and frequently. When I offer a treat he sits obediently and takes it nicely from my hand with a firm mouth but no grabbiness. Every human Ross meets is an instant best friend but it seems he's more choosy when it comes to his fellow pooches. ..." Please share Ross for the person/family willing to expend a little of their own energy to gain a perfect companion!

 Ross' Scottish name really is the perfect fit for a guy with bright red hair and all the high-spirited energy and loyal devotion of a highland clansman. He's extremely friendly and just loves to be cuddled, wiggling his butt with pleasure as I rub his side and getting up beside me on the bench to offer lots of eager kisses.  Every human Ross meets is an instant best friend but it seems he's more choosy when it comes to his fellow pooches. A quiet pittie is standing in the pen next to ours and Ross greets him through the fence with friendly sniffing and a wagging tail yet when we pass other dogs in the street, both large and small, he pulls and barks in a very non-friendly way. The unfamiliar environment of the Care Center has left Ross a bit out of sorts and I discover that a walk in the park is no 'walk in the park' when he's along for the ride! While he's very responsive to my voice and waits patiently for the lights to change at each crossing we come to, he pulls extremely hard on the leash and his new parents will need to address this issue with additional training. Ross is strong in spirit and soft of heart, beautiful, affectionate and just a little bit mysterious - a legend in the making. If you've seen the movie Braveheart you already know exactly what our honorary Scotsman is dreaming of and what only you can give him...Freedom! 12/12/2013

To say this to most of you is preaching to the choir. But please share with your "friends" who brag proudly about where they "bought" their puppy.
