Story
We are extremely busy people and we want him to receive the care he deserves. We tried to take him to many shelters but some will immediately put pits down or they were full/would wait 30 days for adoption and then put him down. He’s 8 years old and has always been an outside dog. We built him an outside house we can give to the new owners also. the adoption fee is negotiable, we really just want him to be with a loving home who will have more time to give him attention than we do as soon as possible.
