WTF? Is this attack dog just roaming around? It doesn't sound safe. Give Hugo a break and call someone to get the nasty dog outa there!
|
|
Why is Hugo being kept unsafe? If you have a new home picked out, it's beyond time to go. His current environment is inhumane.
|
|
Fluffy,
Is Hugo still available? I'm interested and have a great home with a big privacy fenced yard. |
|
Good luck finding him a home!
We adopted an American Bulldog this past Friday after fostering him for 6 months. I'll post a thread on him. Awesome dog. Thread for Pepa |

Shannon simply let Hugo go outside to do his business and that's when that other dog showed up again. He is still in need of a home; however, there is an interested person who may take him next month |

Why not just put the poor thing out of his misery I would like to put you out of your misery; however, that would be illegal. You sound like an emotional liberal. It is better to keep your mouth shut and have people wonder if you are an idiot than to open it and remove all shadow of doubt. Telling someone you want to kill them because they talk about putting an animal down is the sign of an emotionally disturbed individual. I know what Fluffy does for animals on here, still doesn't make it a sane statement to say. It's sane enough. If someone consistently taunts you and provokes you on a subject you feel strongly about that's a fairly normal impulse. Insane would be acting on it. I haven't seen anything from OP that makes me think he'd do that. |

Due to all the bickering about a "type" of dog, I missed the location of this dog within NC. I am in NC, and I would like to know. I have a bully breed that I got from ARFcom. She is great. She is very submissive around other bully breeds. She might be a good dog to spend time with Hugo. I will be in touch with you shortly I'm still wondering where in NC Hugo is located. |

Let me explain a few more things. Shannon's daughter was killed in an accident this April. And so Shannon had to move. She had to get a new home and she moved with a number of dogs that she rescued. She could have done the cowardly thing and dropped them all off at a shelter. But she stuck with it and took the dogs with her. And that's why she does not have a proper fence at this time. She really did everything she could under very difficult circumstances and she's still trying. |

Fluffy,
You may have missed my post above, I'm VERY interested in Hugo and can take him right now. He'll be an indoor dog with anytime access to a large fenced in yard anytime he want's out. I'm in Texas near Austin, let me know if this is possible. Thank you, John |

Why let Shannon keep the dog while he "recovers" versus letting the interested guy have him now, avoiding further injury to Hugo?
I don't get it..... Hugo needs to go to a home with no current dog, let alone a bull breed, submissive or not, get acclimated, and then if the owner wants him to have a friend they get a female puppy and it grows up with Hugo as it's mentor/ higher pack mate. |

I have put two different arfcommers in touch with Shannon. Both arfcommers want to adopt Hugo. I've done everything I can do. I've also taken care of his veterinary expenses three different times. I've done everything. It is up to others now. |

I'd adopt him in a heartbeat if I could. If he needs to be transported to his new home I can chip in a few bucks towards helping defray the cost of transport, I'll just renew membership next paycheque instead of this one.

It would tell the story of the kind hearted cat from Canada that rescues dogs. I think it would be excellent pro-gun guy propaganda for youtube. |

I would never fly a dog on an airliner this time of the year. One little hold up on the runway and it's going to get hot in the cargo hold.
