GBF Adoptable Dog & Cat Of The Week: Ross & Foster Kitties
We've teamed up with our rescue friends in Posey County, Indiana. Each week we share an adoptable dog from PC Pound Puppies and an adoptable feline friend from Posey Humane Society as well as details on how you can make them a forever part of your home. Let me introduce you to your next best friend.
Meet Ross
Ross is the perfect mix of energy and chill. At 5 years old and 50 pounds, this guy is going to steal your heart. He is housetrained and doesn't chew on things that aren't his. He didn't have the greatest start to life - according to PC Pound Puppies,
If you are looking for the perfect combination of sweet, playful, well behaved and loving then STOP RIGHT HERE! This is your guy! Ross came to us from a terrible living situation where he was beat up by the other dogs and he had been covered in fleas for so long that his skin had scarred over. It was so bad our vet didn't know if his hair would grow back. Well, it's amazing what love and good vet care will do! THANK YOU to everyone who donated to help cover his vetting costs!
His hair is growing back! He will need surgery on his eye in the future but we cover the cost of the surgery.
Ross is not crated in his foster home, housetrained and is well behaved in the house and doesn't chew on things that are not his. He's very gentle but also playful. His favorite thing is cuddling when his foster mom gets home from work. He is very dog and kid friendly but has not been tested with cats yet. We do think he would do fine with cats due to his gentle nature.
As you can tell from the photo, Ross is going to make a most excellent buddy! If you think you would make a good companion for Ross, please contact PC Pound Puppies.
The PC Pound Puppies standard adoption fee is $175 ($250 for puppies 6 months and under, or small dogs 15lbs or below) which covers a portion of the dog's vetting costs. The adoption process includes the completion of an application followed by an interview. If you're interested in adding this pup to your family, you can fill out an adoption application here. The adoption process does require a completed application as well as an interview. The rescue will not schedule a meet and greet without having first received a completed application.
You can get in touch with PC Pound Puppies by email at pcpoundpuppies1@gmail.com or by phone at 812-483-4341. They do respond to inquiries and adoption applications at the earliest opportunity, but please remember to be patient as they are volunteers who all work full-time jobs. They always do their best to return messages and schedule adoption interviews within a couple of days of receiving your application. Again, you can submit an application here.
Meet This Momma & Babies
These sweet little babies, and their momma, was abandoned at Posey Humane Society and are now in need of a foster home to give them a good chance at a healthy and happy future. Here's what Posey Humane has to say about these babies,
First, let me say that I am very grateful to the people who decided to Dump the mama cat and kittens off at Posey Humane Society today...as opposed to dumping them in the country or worse...they are safe and being taken care of.
And they are SUPER cute and sweet.
With that being said...NOW we have yet MORE kittens in need.
Posey Humane Society has plenty of other kitties as well as lots of dogs, both young and old. If you're interested in meeting this week's adoptable cat or any of the other wonderful and deserving animals in the care of Posey Humane Society, you can visit them on Facebook or by visiting their official website, PoseyHumane.org. They are also in need of foster homes where the animals can wait for their forever families without having to stay inside the shelter.
