This sweet big boy needs a home soon. He's at the Joplin Humane Society in Missouri. I can help with transport if needed. His adoption fee is just $50! Anyone?

Also at that same shelter is this sweet boxer mix girl and golden retriever boy. Again, I will help with transport if I can. Their adoption fees are $50!

Guys, these 2 dogs will BE PUT TO SLEEP ON 8-25-06 unless they can find a home for them!!!! They are simply too full! Please don't let this happen! I would try to foster them myself, but then I would be in need of a new home! I can help with transport!

Time to cross post this BPO's.
-
Just to let you know, I will be in the same town that the Pyr, Boxer, and Golden are located in on Sunday. Let me know if I need to pull them for anyone while I'm there. I can even foster for one night if needed. Pm me or reply on here!

Marissa,
Could you please see if there is more info about the Pyr? Ie., how is he with cats, kids, other dogs? Although most shelters do not test with livestock, but any info would be helpful. Also was he a stray or owner surrender?
Sadly, with Captain at this point, we really cannot take on another dog at this time. However, I'd like to crosspost, but need more info. If I can find someone I'll put up his $50 adoption fee.

Let me check it out and post the answers to your questions in a minute.

I called the shelter. He is still available. She said usually they are pretty specific on defining how each dog is with other animals and kids, but on his chart, it simply said, "Good with other things." I know that really doesn't narrow it down, but I think she would have told me more about him if she was pessimistic on how he was around children, people, cats, dogs, etc. And he was an owner surrender. Hope that helps some!
-
On the pit bull mixes, I am oddly trying to think of ways I could somehow foster one for a few days and try to find him a home! I really don't want them put to sleep. I'll see what I can do. Can anyone else think of someone who might want those 2? They'll die on Friday otherwise!
-
If someone will adopt the Pyr, or heck any of them for that matter- I am good for the adoption fee. I really wish that I could take them - but I am at my quota- This is so sad. I can not imagine putting those beautiful pups to sleep ... gggrrrrr
-
ok silly me- you would need to be able to get in touch with me- I can give the shelter a credit card over the phone- transfer money via pay pal - whatever-
My cell phone is 214-724-0856 ( I usually answer 24/7 or will return call quicky)

That's so sweet of you. I tried to contact about 3 or 4 pit bull rescues for those last 2. I just would really hate for them to be put to sleep! What can I do?! :-\
-
I can not stand the thought of a perfectly good dog being put to sleep because no one would love it. I am sure that my husband would pitch the fit to end all if I brought one more in the house-so I cant do that. He is really a good guy, we have rescued a total of 9. And I am horrible- I insist that they are all house babies. So I know that I just cant even make that suggestion-
-
Same here with my parents and 2 dogs already, and 2 cats!
-
Guys, I have contacted those rescues and none of them can take the pit mixes! I don't know what I'll do. Anyone have anymore suggestions?
-
Anyone on the board who could foster? Looks like a couple of us would chip in for the fee.
Did you try to contact a Great Pyrenees rescue or Golden Retriever rescue? Maybe they could get those 2 dogs pulled. I am still surpised they did not give you more info regarding the Pyr. He was an owner surrender and don't even tell you why ???
Anyone foster one of the Pittie mixes while Marissa works on rehoming?
-
I can try to do that for the Pyr and Golden, but it's not so much them I'm worried about. But that is a good suggestion! Thank you! I will try that. And that's so sweet of you guys to help with the fee if needed. I think BPO is the best, no doubt!
-
I'd gladly take the Pyr, but - I am up in Canada. Vancouver Island to be precise. I'd be willing to pay for transportation - within limits - but someone would have to do the legwork down there. Ideas?

All I can do right now is send hope & prayers unless transport comes near me then I can foster for a very short time & help with transport within 100 miles.
-
Oh, looks like the Pyr and Boxer mix have been adopted. The Golden is still available though!
-
oh God, I am in trouble now. Did you see this one???

Where is this shelter ? Think this beauty stands a chance of being adopted?
-
This shelter is in Joplin, MO. It is in the southwest corner of Missouri. I am 90 minutes away from it. Are you falling in love or falling out of your chair laughing at him? :D
-
I think he's beautiful . don't know anything about Old English Sheepdogs though.
-
Neither do I. Just that they're in the herding group and have long, bushy hair!
-
Oh my...I LOVE OES!!! I've wanted one all my life. Unfortunately, can't have one right now.
