Subject: Re: Jacksonville, NC: Deadline TUESDAY 12/2!!! Gentle Senior, Arthritic, GSD Gramps! Owner was found deceased. 

We have some unfortunate updates. He was briefly adopted, but in the home, he displayed significant aggression. The cause is unclear—potential pain, stress, or environmental changes—but after two contact bites he was returned for the safety of the household.

Given his escalating stress and overall condition, we have decided that humane euthanasia is the most compassionate option. The exact timing is still pending.

$600 SPONSORSHIP!!

 

COMMITMENT DATE EXTENDED! NEW OUT DATE: 12/8

Seeking rescue for a 9-year-old intact male Shepherd (60 lbs) removed from a home after his owner was found deceased. He’s a very calm, gentle boy but has several medical concerns and does not tolerate restraint. Lovingly names, "=" ❤️

 

Key Notes

• Limited vision
• Severe arthritis; drags rear right foot
• Cannot HW test – becomes stressed with handling and has given warning bites
• Dog neutral
• Quiet, low-key temperament

Why He Needs Rescue

His medical needs and handling tolerance make the shelter environment unsuitable. He needs a low-stress, experienced rescue to address mobility issues and safely complete vetting.

Please reach out if you can help this senior boy.
