Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Neptune is a magnificent 2-year old male American Staffordshire Terrier who arrived at the HSOV on December 14, 2023 after a Good Samaritan found him on State Route 7 in the Marietta/Reno Ohio area and brought him to the safety of our shelter. Neptune was not wearing a collar, but a microchip was detected. Our shelter staff has been attempting to locate his owner through the microchip data.
This handsome guy has a sleek chocolate brown-and-white coat, white markings on his legs/paws, a long tail with a white tip on the end, and a beautiful symmetrically-marked face with dark brown eyes, a chocolate nose on his pink/white muzzle, and cute 'cartoon ears'. You cannot look at Neptune's mischievous-looking face without smiling.
Neptune has a playful, fun-loving personality. Thanks to HSOV Kennel Tech Emily Beaver who accompanied Neptune for outdoor photos on December 16th. Neptune thoroughly enjoyed his '15-minutes of fame' and (like all of the HSOV dogs), he loved Emily.
Neptune weighs 62 lbs and is strong on the other end of a leash.
In compliance with the Ohio Revised Code, Neptune was held for three days so that his family would have an opportunity to reclaim him with proof of ownership. Surprisingly nobody called or came looking for this awesome dog.
Neptune was neutered on February 15, 2024 and was also given rabies vaccine.
