My story

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

Dexter was originally rescued from a shelter in the Kansas City, MO area from a shelter by another rescue. The rescue owner recently passed away, and Dexter was transferred to AMPS. We are so grateful to his first Savior as he would have been euthanized at the shelter. He was severely abused, having sustained kicks to the head and body. His ribs were broken at some point and he sustained brain trauma which has resulted in his having seizures. They are controlled by a small dose of phenobarbitrol. It is an inexpensive medication. Please consider giving Dexter a third chance at a loving kind furever home. No animal should be hurt the way he was hurt.
RRMPM does not adopt to homes with underground electric fences. As a Special Needs dog, Dexter's adoption fee is not a set amount, but rather we ask for a donation to help us continue our work saving dogs like Dexter that would not have a chance of adoption or even life with out Rescue.
