My story

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

Please contact Tonya Griffith (TMSGriffith@aol.com) for more information about this pet.

Posted on 12/31/23, and the pictures were updated on 2/14/24.  Cassius was found with his sister Carlene, dumped in Alto, TX on 12/23/23 (4 months old), and surrendered to us on 12/29/23. 

Cassius is very sweet with people, but a little shy at first, and does ok on a leash, but he needs more work on a leash.  House training and cats are unknown.  His breed resembles a Shepherd Mix.  Cassius is estimated to have been born in August 2023, he was neutered on 1/4/24, and is current on vaccinations.  He weighs 50 pounds as of 3/7/24.

$25 adoption fee, since a donation was made to help with his veterinary care.

Adoption application

Go meet their pets

It depends on who has the pet. We don't advertise our address to keep people from dumping animals on our road anymore than they usually do, especially since this is also where we live. I like to visit with a person on the phone first before letting them come meet the pet.

More about this rescue

This is a small animal rescue for cats and dogs. I have several foster homes in various areas, and I also do courtesy postings for people who need help finding a home for their pet, which is about 80% successful. The pet doesn't have to enter a rescue or shelter and the owner is contacted, so they decide who their pet goes to. If a person can't send me pictures, and they don't live too far away, I will go and videotape the pet myself to place pictures on the internet, or have a volunteer get the pictures. There have been a few pets that haven't been able to find a home through this service, but it depends on what the pet is and who is looking on the internet. When we have space available we take transfers from a local kill animal shelter. We also step in and help people who find themselves with multiple animals and no way to pay to get them fixed. Usually I will get all the females fixed to get their circumstances under control, and in some cases I will also help with donated food when I have extra. If they want to find homes for some of the many pets they have accumulated, then I will place their pictures on the internet for them. We don't euthanize unless a pet is seriously ill.
