That's Gunner. I contacted his people several weeks ago to inquire and he is not in a kill shelter. He's in a rescue program (not through BRAT) and he "does not need rescuing from a rescue". Just an FYI…
Hello there!
i am interested in this dog to add to my loving family. I would love to adopt this dog if not yet adopted, but need more information on him. If you could email me back, we could talk and set up a time and place.
Regards
I am glad this boy is going to BRAT! I hope he is still socialized even after being kenneled that long.
I do not understand why non specific breed rescues take in dogs and then leave them kenneled for months! I understand temporary kenneling until one can find a foster home but for months. I have read about this happening too many times and I did not realize how often this occurs. I monitor the Urgent Part 2-Urgent Death Row Dogs Facebook page which monitors the NYCACC shelters and I have seen dogs posted on its site where a dog has been rescued from the shelter and then sits in a kennel for months. I know people want to save dogs but it is expensive for kenneling and this is how rescues become hoarders! There is also an all breed rescue group in IN that solicits funds to pay for boarding.
