URGENT!! I HAVE TO GET OFF MY CHAIN!

JACKSON is a drop-dead handsome young man. Despite his awful circumstances, he's very sweet to people and just wants to be loved. In his own words, here's his story.

Hi everyone, how are you? I'm okay but I can't get cool in this terrible heat. I'm just a kid - only 7 mo old - and I've been chained outside on a pole my entire life. There's nothing illegal about it but there should be, let me tell you. It's awful and hot and lonely and depressing.

I don't know why my humans even got me but they did. And now they're ready to give me up but the rescue doesn't have any room anywhere and is desperately trying to find me a foster or boarding spot. THEY NEED YOU TO HELP ME!!!

I've been hungry and miserable and hot most all my short life. WON'T YOU SHOW ME HOW NICE HUMANS CAN BE? The people who came to see me with food and water and a dog house are telling me that humans really can be very good to me but I don't know ... it's hard to imagine when you're lonely and all that.

PUH-LEEZE! FOSTER ME OR ADOPT ME N-O-W! I can't take much more of this. I promise I'll learn whatever you want me to learn and be as good a boy as I know how. Let's make beautiful music together! I have wonderful traits, I just need the chance to show them and develop them in a home with some love and TLC. Hah! I'll learn anything you want me to, just say the word. I'm smart as well as pretty ya know ;-D

JUST PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE BE MY FAMILY. I've got so much love to give all bottled up inside me that I'll learn housebreaking, tricks, commands, whatever you want. All you have to do is work with me here.

THANK YOU FOR CONSIDERING A HOMELESS DOG OR CAT.

OVER 4 MILLION INNOCENT DOGS AND CATS ARE KILLED EVERY YEAR IN THE U.S. BECAUSE NO ONE WANTS THEM.

THOUSANDS OF WONDERFUL FAMILY DOGS AND CATS DIE EACH DAY IN OUR SHELTERS.

STOP THE SLAUGHTER.
DON'T BUY WHILE OTHERS DIE.

STOP!! READ THIS BEFORE YOU GO ANY FURTHER!

1. We're picky about our adopters. 
2. Are you sure you're up to having a GSD?  They're not for everyone.  They take a lot of time, effort, training.  They shed year round.  They're big.  They scare lots of people.  They "mouth" and herd.  They're usually strong-willed and stubborn.  You have to have references and a home visit.  If you're not willing or able to deal with any of this, please don't waste your time or ours applying.  
   
3. Will the dog be an inside family pet? We do not adopt to outdoor-only homes. All dogs must be indoor dogs.
4. Do you leave your dog outdoors when you're not home?   We do not adopt to homes that leave their animals outside when they're gone.  You must put your dogs indoors when you're gone.  A 3 yr old adopted MOGS dog died when the owners went to run errands, left her outdoors, the gate was somehow opened, and she was hit by a car.  Tragic and 100% preventable. Even privacy fences get broken into.  Gates are opened.  Thieves steal dogs. Never leave your dog outdoors when you're not home!!
   
5. What's your plan for unexpected events and major changes?  New baby? Divorce?  Moving?   How you will provide for your dog if your family breaks up? 
   
6. Will you make a lifetime commitment?  It's your responsibility to keep your dog safe, loved and cared for FOR LIFE.
7.  Do you understand we expect you to keep that lifetime commitment?  It's YOUR RESPONSIBILITY to stick by your family member -- no matter what.
8. Are you unable or unwilling to make a lifetime commitment? Do not apply.
