Rhodes FKA Dog 9

Rhodes FKA Dog 9

Rhodes was a recent rescue from a dog fighting ring where his life was filled with misery and pain. We are showing him that life has so much more to offer him. He is receiving attention and affection and is allowing us to pet and handle him gently for probably the first time in his life. We are introducing him to calm, friendly dogs and he is approaching them with friendly body language and intent. He has no idea that a loving family is going to come and give him the kind of live he never knew was possible. If that sounds like your family, please bring everyone and any other dogs in the home for a meet at the shelter before you take him home.

This pet qualifies for our Sponsored by Simba Program: Pets for Veterans. No adoption fee for any military veteran adopting a pet 1yo+
