My story

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

RESCUED!
*HEINEKEN* - URGENT
#108-16
Male Pit Mix - Young
Date in: 3/23/16
**Already Neutered**
(No cats)

Hey there! I'm Heinekin! I may be young but I have had a crazy life so far! I started out living on the streets of Zanesville with my master until he decided that he could no longer care for me and threatened to kill me. Luckily some nice people stopped him and traded him some beer for me. After that I spent a couple days in temporary foster care and then was brought to the Pound. I have met a lot of really great people along the way but what I really want is my own family. I'm still very young and have a bunch of energy that I'm just not able to burn off in my tiny kennel. If someone was willing to give me a chance and teach me some manners, I just know I could be a great pet! For some reason, a lot of other dogs don't like me, so I would probably do best on my own. Please come visit me soon! I would just love to be free to run around again!

Available for adoption at:
Muskingum County Dog Warden and Adoption Center
1500 Newark RD Zanesville, Ohio 43701

Adoption fee is $105 which includes spay/neuter, combo and rabies shots, Bordetella vaccine, heartworm test and dog tags.(Although some of the dogs come to the pound spayed or neutered, most do not. If you adopt a dog that has not yet been spayed/neutered, the pound will set up an appointment for it to be spayed/neutered before it can leave the pound.)
