When the girl who works there came in she told me that yesterday when she got to work at 5:30 am, he was outside the door in a crate with food and a bottle of water on top of it. They put him in the dog iso kennels and he was too freaked out. So she brought him in by her. She let him out and he jumped all over her. He was already attaching to her. There wasn't much paperwork for me to do so I asked if i could take him out and work with him for awhile. With in 10 minutes he would let me approach him. Another 10 minutes he was in my arms getting hugs and kisses. He hadn't eaten since being there. I started hand feeding him and within minutes he had gobbled up his food by himself. I just knew if I could get him use to other people he will get a home quicker. He is so cute. They guess he is about 2, not neutered and the people didn't even leave his name some where on the cage. So they are calling him Baby boy. Then they got in 2 pit bulls from a humane investigation and they think one was used to train the fighter one on. They are so aggressive, they can't get near them. I just wonder how people can treat animals so horribly.
Then I come on here and see how we treat our babies and wonder why all of them can't have that. Thanks I just needed to vent a little
I hope he does get a home quickly and good for you taking him into your care and showing him ALL humans don't suck eggs (a nice way of putting what I want to say)

I hope he continues to progress =
