PET OF THE WEEK

Black Bart
 

Hi there! My name is Black Bart; I’m a Black Labrador Retriever. I was out in the middle of nowhere, I didn’t know where I was or how to get back to where I came from and decided to visit a farm house for help and that’s how I made it here to the shelter. I had no id and no one has called looking for me so now I’m going up for adoption. I’m a very good boy, I’m sweet and quiet – except I will let you know I have to go outside. I’m housebroken, not a leg lifter, have manners and know some commands.

I’m not a senior dog but I do have a few years on me so maybe you could say that I’m “seasoned”. I would be great with most any family, I’m good with other dogs and don’t seem to mind cats, I don’t chew things up, or run around like I’m crazy like some of the younger dogs. Sounds like I’m pretty perfect for a dog but I have to tell you up front I’m not; I have a few scrapes and scars on my one foot and a few on my face but lucky for me my skin is black and my fur is black so it doesn’t show real bad – just wanted you to know I do have a few minor flaws.

I love to have my ears, chin and face rubbed, that is pure heaven to me and I will sit next to you all day long just for some of that. I hope my someone special see’s this and comes to meet me; I will be waiting in my kennel for you, head pressed against the gate, just waiting for your touch to come through to rub my ears and I will know in an instant it’s you and our companionship can begin. I promise not to let you down and always love you no matter what in return for lots of ear rubbing, petting, and love and if I ever go missing again in my life - you will LOOK for me as I would for you. As I said I’m at the shelter and hope to see you soon.

Love, Bart

DONATE A KURANDA DOG BED
TO THE SHELTER

dogbed

Kuranda beds are sturdy and long lasting, so you will be providing a lasting gift for a dog today and another tomorrow.

They can make a big difference for even one dog who, for the most part spends 24 hours a day, 7 days a week on a concrete floor.

Donations are offered at a special discounted price and shipped directly to the Elk Country Animal Shelter.

Donate a bed in your name, or send one as a gift in the name of a friend or family member.  We will mail a personalized Gift Card acknowlegement directly to them from you.
