Westin (a tarrier mix) has a second chance at life! |
Westin is sweet, lovable, and highly affectionate. There is little history known about him, but I quickly learned he knew how to behave well in a home. He immediately found comfort on my couch, and all through the time I had him--- there wasn't a single bark! (That alone should make him highly adoptable!)
Westin looks slightly emaciated, but he's on the mend and is sure to look a lot healthier soon.
Westin came to Gadsden County Animal Control, where the department lacks an animal shelter to keep found and unwanted pets. To be blunt, these animals don't stay around for very long. Resources are limited, but they've made great effort working to find new homes for the animals that end up there. Thankfully, there's a good relationship with the humane society and volunteers stepped up to find foster homes for four dogs.
Westin is available for adoption. |
Thanks to the supporters of the Gadsden County Humane Society, animals like Westin have a second chance! In case you didn't know, GCHS is an all-volunteer organization and doesn't have a facility to house animals. They rely on the support of volunteers willing to foster cats and/or dogs until they can get adopted. The commitments to foster are not that difficult... you just need to provide a loving home environment. GCHS covers medical costs and pet food.
The more volunteers that come forward willing to help, the more animals like Westin we can save!
