UPDATE #4 Monday 9.8.08 Panzer starts his training tomorrow with Ken. Please keep Panzer in your thoughts and prayers, that he is responsive to his training.

UPDATE #3 Saturday 9.6.08
A most generous couple has donated the entire $700 needed to pay for Panzer's training with an aggression expert, and kennel boarding to be near his trainer. THANK YOU CHERYL AND BRUCE! You are truly special people. Panzer's training will begin soon, and we will post another update when he has settled down and is again available for adoption. If you are interested in Panzer, please go ahead and request an application by emailing mogsrescue@yahoo.com. Please put "Panzer - send application please" in the subject line.

UPDATE #2 Tuesday 9.2.08 10 pm
Panzer was taken to a boarding kennel this evening. He is traumatized and confused and incredibly sad. We MUST get him training or find him a special home FAST.

PLEASE donate to Panzer's fund. We are desperately in need of help and cannot afford to board Panzer or get him the training he needs. THANK YOU for helping us save this boy who had the misfortune to fall into the wrong hands. No amount is too small - we truly appreciate any help you can give.

UPDATE #2 Tuesday 9.2.08
Panzer is out of time and HAS to leave his home. We are putting him in boarding this afternoon. We have no other options. We're looking at our options, including having him trained by an expert in aggression.

UPDATE #1 Sunday, 8.31.08
Panzer's adoption fell through. He displayed aggression today to the 10 and 14 yr old daughters and the family gsd. Although the original owners presented Panzer as 'trained", he would not heel or follow any commands. Panzer can not go to a standard home environment but MUST got to a trainer or experienced german shepherd person equipped to deal with aggression / lack of training..

WE HAVE 24 TO 48 HOURS LEFT TO SAVE PANZER or he will have to be put down. Tonight he is staying at his family's new apartment illegally. .

We made numerous calls today, a holiday Sunday, and managed to talk to an aggression expert. He believes Panzer can be set right within about 10 days. Right now this is our ONLY option - to board Panzer near this trainer and have him work with Panzer for 10 days. The trainer guarantees that Panzer will be an excellent dog within 3 to 10 days of the proper training.

EVEN AT A DISCOUNT, THIS TRAINING AND BOARDING WILL COST $700. IF YOU CAN DONATE TO SAVE PANZER'S LIFE, PLEASE DO. WE DO NOT HAVE THE FUNDS TO HELP HIM. Please go to www.mogsrescue.com, click on the PayPal link and indicate your donation is for Panzer.

PANZER MUST BE OUT OF HIS HOME BY AUG. 29!!! CALL 816. 686-8100 IMMEDIATELY IF YOU CAN HELP PANZER.

WE ARE DOING EVERYTHING WE CAN AND WILL TAKE DONATIONS TO BOARD HIM AS WELL.

LOCATION: Kansas City
AGE: 13 months

TEMPERAMENT: great with his own family and other animals, a bit protective of his family/home due to lack of socialization that is correctable with training due to his young age

*XXXX URGENT* FOSTER ME!! I GO TO THE POUND IF NO FOSTER OR HOME IS FOUND BY AUGUST 29!!

PANZER is a drop-dead handsome 13 mo old black and tan german shepherd with AKC papers that were never registered. He was purchased by a gentleman who contracted cancer and was fulfilling a long time wish to have a german shepherd.

Unfortunately, the family is being forced to move into a small apartment and, while his cancer treatment is giong well, the owner can no longer care for Panzer.

PANZER knows something is up and is uncertain and concerned. He's a bit uncomfortable around strangers for the time being, as his owner has not socialized him much. Panzer is a beautiful young dog who will be easily trained, but he will need socialization. He currently lives with another dog and is fine around other animals. He is fine with the small grandchildren in the family, but for the time being we recommend no small children in the house until Panzer becomes more completely socialized and adpated to a totally new home situation.
