Take Me Home

Welcome to the newest feature in The Straight Poop! We felt that it would be a good idea to feature pets who are in need of a loving forever home, particularly since we here at Kamp K9 often hear about animals displaced by the misfortunes of so many people and families in these times. If you know a pet who needs a new home, and who doesn’t have the benefit of much publicity, let us know, and we can feature them here. Information given here is preliminary only and comes either from rescue organizations or owners; contact them for more information.

At right is Hoot, a handsome older gentleman who is currently at Tender Touch Rescue in Scarborough (located at the Tender Touch Veterinary Hospital).

His Petfinder.com listing shows him to have special needs, but no details are provided, so further information will have to be garnered from Tender Touch. The assumption is that he has special needs because of his age.

He is said to be very affectionate. We here at Kamp K9 can tell you that older cats are great, because they’ve outgrown that youthful nuttiness, and they can be very calm and happy just to be around you.

Last month, Canine Commitment Rescue got Keltsey, who appears to be a black lab/golden retriever mix, from her original owners, and she has been living in a wonderful foster home since then. She had been loved, but the financial means weren’t there to properly care for her. She’s been brought up-to-date on her shots and she’d had heartworm & fecal tests (negative on both). She is approximately ten years old and weighs about 60lbs. She has a beautiful thick black coat, much like a golden. She’s such a sweet dog; she just loves being with you. She enjoys the outside, but she’s definitely an indoor dog. She would love to live in a home with a fenced-in back yard. She’s fine with other dogs, but does not like cats. She is extremely laid-back and very low maintenance...just a sweet pup who needs a good family to love her and take care of her.
