RESIDENT SPOTLIGHT - BEN-GAL Despite the season opening defeat to the Baltimore Ravens, Ben-gal is still cheering from Room 13.
This orange tabby beauty came to STAF from a notorious area trailer park with a leg that appeared broken. After visiting the vet, it was determined that the leg had healed in this position and it would be more painful for Ben-gal to break the leg again and have it heal properly. More important than her leg was to help Ben-gal learn to trust humans and realize the joy they could bring to her life.
Thanks to many volunteers Ben-gal learned to enjoy petting and cuddling in her vet room apartment and her leg is no obstacle to her when rushing over to receive her share of attention when the volunteers come into Room 13.
Ben-gal may walk with a slight limp, but she thinks she can still keep up with T.J. and Ocho Cinco for the winning touchdown pass!!!
Interested in meeting this special girl, then stop by STAF Adoptions - Thursday, 6:00pm-8:00pm, and Saturday, 1:00pm-4:00pm. |
RESIDENT SPOTLIGHT - WHODEY
WhoDey! WhoDey! WhoDey gonna love this doggy? With fall ...and football season here .. how could we not spotlight WhoDey?
When WhoDey first walked into our lives he was a shy dog. That lasted all of, oh, about a minute. Two, tops. When we first met him, he jumped under the seats of the nice couple who had recently rescued him from the streets. But as volunteers came to welcome WhoDey to our shelter, within seconds his back end was wiggling and he was running between everyone to get some pets. The folks who found WhoDey said that he loves people, enjoys other dogs, and is playful. We've seen nothing to contradict that. Since that first day, we don't think he has met a person or dog that he didn't like immediately.
WhoDey looks like your typical mutt. A 50 lb dog with black and brown fur and big ears that make people go "oh, how cute!" He was born around September of 2006, so he's still a pup at heart. He needs some training to help figure out the difference between good and bad behavior. He's intelligent, well-mannered, and always willing to please, so training should be easy for him.
WhoDey loves other dogs, and plays with wild abandon, just like a little boy without a care in the word.
One of the things that we have learned about WhoDey is that he can climb fences. If WhoDey is in the yard with his human "pack" he'll probably be just fine. But walk to the other side of the fence and it's a good bet he'll try to follow.
We think WhoDey would do well in a family with children and other animals, and would easily adapt to a new environment. Looking for a dog that has a happy passion for life and a heart of gold to go with it? Then stop by to meet WhoDey during STAF Adoptions - Thursday, 6:00pm-8:00pm, and Saturday, 1:00pm-4:00pm.
