Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Roland came to us on May 27th from Baldwin Park Shelter. He was brought in as a stray after being hit by a car. He was there almost 10 days without receiving medical attention. Roland had an owner, but when the owner was informed of his injuries they declined to pick him up. After 2 days of intense phone calling and negotiating, we got him. He was scratched and a little beat up, smelly, dirty and had nerve damage down his front right leg that rendered his leg useless. After his x-rays and observation of the nerve damage, Dr. Matt Wheaton determined that the nerve damage had made the leg unusable and that it would never heal on its own. Amputation was our best option to eliminate his pain and relieve his of the burden of a dead leg. We scheduled his surgery and it went perfectly. Roland is recovered, healthy, happy and faster with 3 legs than he was before. He is a beautiful boy that will really make a great loving addition to any family. He is friendly to cats and other dogs. We think he is about 1 year old. He is ready to find his forever family, please call us if you are interested.
ADOPTION PROCESS:
Pets are visited by appointment (times are flexible). Please email Casey Oliver at adopt@thepetrescuecenter.org to arrange a meeting time. This process allows potential adopters to spend adequate time with their prospective pet and prevents long wait times.
All interested parties must fill out an Adoption Application, which will be reviewed to find the best possible match. You can find our application online at: http://www.thepetrescuecenter.org/adoptapet.html. Completed applications can be faxed to 949-768-5759 or emailed to: adopt@thepetrescuecenter.org
Our adoption fee is $300 for dogs and $150 for cats, and includes spay/neuter, microchip, flea treatment, deworming, regular veterinary check-ups, and current vaccinations. This fee helps to defray the costs of medical care, supplies and boarding while the animals are in our care.
