Burt

My story

When Burt first joined the rescue, he was in rough shape—underweight, heartworm positive, and suffering from a torn ACL. But this resilient senior has come a long way! He’s gained healthy weight, completed heartworm treatment, and successfully underwent surgery to repair his ACL. Now, Burt is finally ready to find his forever home. At almost 11 years old and weighing 63 lbs, Burt is a gentle soul—likely a Lab/Pit Bull mix. He’s fully potty trained and non-destructive, so he doesn’t need to be kenneled. He gets along well with other dogs, but he’s not one for playtime; if there’s another pup in the home, they should be content just relaxing together. Burt’s been through a lot, and now he’s ready to enjoy his golden years with a loving family by his side.

We are dedicated to rescuing dogs in shelters, dogs in abusive or neglectful situations, and dogs surrendered by their owners because of difficult circumstances. We place dogs in loving, responsible, committed permanent homes, following a comprehensive adoption process, which includes taking considerable care in finding good matches and educating prospective adopters about the responsibilities and costs of bringing a dog into their homes and lives. Dogs in our care are spayed or neutered, microchipped, receive all appropriate veterinary care and treatment, and placed in nurturing foster homes while they await placement in their permanent homes. We assist dogs in distress without regard to age, breed or ease of placement. Dogs in the greatest need take priority. Finally, we strive to work with shelters and other rescue and humane organizations to develop a network of supporters and volunteers in order to create a better world for homeless dogs. ##2124712##
