PLEASE CROSSPOST~PLEASE FORWARD~PLEASE NETWORK AS QUICKLY
AS POSSIBLE ON BEHALF OF THESE PRECIOUS DOGS AND DARLING PUPPIES
WHO ARE SCHEDULED TO DIE ON WEDNESDAY, March 9th, beginning at
8:00AM at Floyd County Animal Control in Rome, GA.  In this very high intake
shelter they have little chance of being saved through adoption--but they are all
so adoptable!  Among them are two whose plight seems especially hard--one
is a small senior Chihuahua--just a little thing who is no doubt terrified--
Chihuahuas are very sensitive little dogs and they shake and tremble in shelter
cages--this little girl was someone's pet for years and now has been thrown
away like an old shoe.  
They have arrived on death row because someone moved away and simply
left them behind--because they escaped from their yards and no one
bothered to look for them--because someone moved and did not find a place
where they could go as well--because people failed them--because no one
cared--because they are "just dogs" after all.
Now they need you desperately--because they will die without your help.
Every dog and puppy on this post must have an offer RECEIVED BY THE
SHELTER BY 4PM ON TUESDAY, MARCH 8TH OR THEY WILL DIE!
There are no exceptions -- emails and faxes are NEVER READ PRIOR TO PUTTING
THE ANIMALS DOWN ON WEDNESDAY MORNINGS!

you!!!

McGrady and His Irish Blessing


McGrady truly has the "Luck O' the Irish"! He is an Australian Shepherd and is located in NC. McGrady, who I pulled 3/6/2010 from Ashe County (NC) Animal Control, intending to foster him for rescue until he was adopted. They were only obligated to keep strays around 1 week before euthanizing them. However, despite thinking he might be deaf and because they liked him so much, they gave McGrady 35 days of life. Just in time for me to see him on petfinder. He is, indeed, deaf but also one of the smartest dogs I've ever met. I had NO idea about all the crazy beliefs there were out there about deaf dogs (ie, that they're "time bombs") until deciding to keep McGrady and starting to read about how best to train him. Almost weekly, strangers will say, "oh poor baby" when learning he's deaf; however, when we demonstrate all the commands he knows, they walk away saying, "WOW! How smart!" 

I started the FB page for McGrady, or "McG" as we call him, to simply demonstrate how "normal," fun, smart and easy-to-live with deaf dogs are! Also, to help fight those unwarranted beliefs and to show that you don't have to have any special credentials (besides love and patience, just like with any other dog) to own a deaf dog. 


Here's the link to McGrady's facebook:

https://www.facebook.com/pages/McGrady-the-Fabulous-Deaf-Dog-and-Friends/106913809374547


This Sunday is the first anniversary of his Gotcha Day, as my friends who have adopted kids say. Thank you for your consideration and what you're doing for deaf animals!!!
