Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Good day everyone. Allow me to introduce myself. My name is Saxby and I am estimated to be about 10 years old and I weigh 61 lbs. I was found wandering as a stray by a family who took me in and tried to find my owners. No one claimed me so they brought me to AGB since they already had a house full with three kids and five dogs. I had fleas and hookworms and very matted, dirty fur. My back legs were hurting me so I had trouble walking and I had an infection in both my elbows. As you can tell, I was just a mess. AGB and their friends at the vet clinic they took me to immediately started taking great care of me. They have been giving me medicine for my infection, feeding me a very healthy diet and getting rid of those nasty fleas and worms. They also bathed me and worked and worked to get my fur clean and silky again. I am feeling much better already! I get along well with kids and other dogs and I am housetrained. If you have room in your house and your heart to give an older gentleman like me a second chance for happiness, please contact AGB and ask to meet me, Saxby. I am looking forward to making your acquaintance very soon. Please visit me at www.adoptagoldenbirmingham.com or call 205-937-2339 or email camcowen@charter.net
