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.
Here’s Winston, a Yorkshire Terrier who’s currently
in Arkansas but available for adoption in Maine through
Canine Commitment. Little Winston, listed as a "senior"
dog, was taken to a shelter by a lady who said he’d
been a stray for weeks around the lake where she
lived. His hair was long and matted, and he was quite traumatized and
terrified of all people. He wouldn't let anyone get near him. After
a few weeks in a foster situation, he has learned to trust again and
is friendly and sociable. His right eye had been removed, and it looks
like he's had an injury to his right front leg in the past, likely
the same incident that cost him his eye. He has arthritis in the leg
but is fine with daily meds for that. Winston does okay with other
dogs most of the time, but he has no interest in interacting with them.
Winston is up-to-date with routine shots, house trained, and neutered.
