My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

This is Mighty. He was rescued Friday 8/8/08 from a high kill shelter. He was on death row & had to get out that day before the shelter closed. He was available to "rescue only" because in the shelter he was acting aggressive. He was supposedly brought in as a stray. The shelter workers have a lot of experience & they said it was his owner who carried him in, even though she said he was a stray they knew better because she was holding him & no one else could touch him. He was extremely scared & insecure, that is why he was acting that way. When I saw the email with his picture I just knew he had to get a second chance. After all, it's not his fault he ended up in a shetler scared and alone :(

He will need someone with A LOT of love and patience & no young children, because he has been traumatized and will do best in a quiet home. He has only been with me 2 days, and he is already in my lap, pressing up against me for comfort. He wags his tail when he sees me & so far has done fine with another small dog & foster cats.

He is sleeping in a crate & does just fine and has not had one accident, more proof that he had a home & was not a stray.

Please call if you think you could give this special boy all the love he deserves, and a better life!
