Remus Lupin's Story...
Meet SAFE (Saving Animals From Euthanasia) Class XII at WKCC (Western KY Correctional Complex). Seven dogs will train for approximately two months with inmate handlers. In that time, the dogs will be housetrained, crate trained, trained to walk on a loose leash, and able to perform some tricks. They will also be neutered, on flea and tick preventative, on heartworm preventative, microchipped, and up to date on all vaccinations. The cost for adopting a SAFE dog is $150.00. Applications will be taken until March 25 and the graduation date will be Friday, April 5, 2013. Applications may be downloaded from safehavenky.weebly.com and sent to SAFE Haven KY, P.O. Box 401, Princeton, KY 42445.
Remus Lupin AKA Champ was named after a character in the Harry Potter series who was half wolf and a professor at Hogwarts Academy. Remus's handlers thought he had a little look of a wolf about him, but that's where the similarity ends. This young man (about a year old) is working hard on getting civilized. He had lived by himself in a pen with very little human contact and then was at the shelter for a short time. Everything is new and exciting for this handsome fellow and he lives every day to the fullest. Remus is a Shepherd mix.
