My name is WHITMAN(GORGEOUS PB SHELTIE!!!

WHITMAN***CONTACT MICHELLE mmay@kylabrescue.com WHITMAN'S STORY--HE DESERVED BETTER!!! WE RECEIVED AN URGENT CALL FROM THE DIRECTOR OF ONE OF THE HIGHEST KILL SHELTERS IN THE SOUTH LETTING US KNOW THAT WHITMAN'S FAMILY HAD JUST SURRENDERED WHITMAN TO HER SHELTER. HIS FAMILY BROUGHT WHITMAN TO THE SHELTER SIGNED THE NECESSARY PAPERS GIVING HIM UP, AND ON THE LINE IN THE PAPERWORK WHERE IT ASKED "WHY ARE YOU GIVING YOUR PET AWAY?" THERE WAS NOTHING WRITTEN, IT WAS BLANK!!!. THE DIRECTOR ASK WHITMAN'S FAMILY WHY THEY COULDN'T KEEP WHITMAN AND THE DAD'S REPLY "WE'RE MOVING WE DON'T HAVE TIME FOR HIM"!!! THE FAMILY TURNED AND WALKED OUT OF THE SHELTER NEVER SAYING A WORD TO WHITMAN OR GIVING HIM A PAT, THEY JUST LEFT!!!. THE DIRECTOR SAID WHITMAN STOOD AT THE SHELTER WINDOW WATCHING AS HIS FAMILY DROVE AWAY, HIS TAIL WAS WAGGING AS IF HE KNEW THEY WAS COMING BACK FOR HIM--THEY DIDN'T!!! IT IS UNIMAGINABLE TO US HOW SOMEONE COULD BE SO HEARTLESS AS TO JUST THROW A TRUE COMPANION LIKE WHITMAN AWAY, PUTTING HIM IN A HIGH KILL SHELTER IN A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION. THE SHELTER DIRECTOR LEARNED WHITMAN HAD BEEN A PART OF THIS FAMILY SINCE HE WAS A TINY, GORGEOUS, 6 WEEK OLD PUPPY. WHITMAN KEPT HIS END OF THE BARGAIN, HE LOVED HIS FAMILY WITH EVERY FIBER OF HIS BEING, HE DID NOTHING WRONG IT WAS HIS FAMILY WHO BROKE THEIR PROMISE!!!. "HE IS ONE OF THE SWEETEST MOST LOVING & GENTLE PUPS I HAVE SEEN. HE IS SO CONFUSED AND DOESN'T UNDERSTAND WHERE HE IS BUT MOST OF ALL WHY" CAN YOU HELP HIM? WAS THE DIRECTOR'S PLEA TO US. WITHOUT EVEN SEEING A PICTURE BUT JUST HEARING WHAT A WONDERFUL FELLOW WHITMAN WAS WE WERE ON OUR WAY WITHIN MINUTES TO HELP. WHEN WE FIRST SAW WHITMAN IN THE SHELTER WE SPOKE SOFTLY TO HIM, GAVE HIM A PAT, HE LIFTED HIS GORGEOUS HEAD, LOOKED AT US WITH EYES THAT WILL MELT YOUR HEART, HIS TAIL SLOWLY STARTED TO WAG, THEY DO KNOW WHEN YOU ARE THERE TO HELP!!!. WHITMAN LEFT THE HIGH KILL SHELTER THAT DAY, EYES SPARKLING, TAIL WAGGING AND WHEN OUR DIRECTOR PUT HIM IN HER CAR HE LICKED HER HAND, MAYBE THIS WAS HIS WAY OF THANKING HER FOR HELPING HIM. ***WHITMAN--A TRUE COMPANION--SO LOVING-A JOY" WHITMAN IS A BREATHTAKINGLY BEAUTIFUL, 2-3 YR.
