FREE TO GOOD HOME. This is a 12 year old female Black Lab named Athena. We have had her since she was 6 weeks old. The only noticeable Chow is the black spot on the tung. She is very sweet and is good with children. She would be great for an elderly person. Due to her age she is not very active but she is in good health. Athena had a physical last December. Her only medical problem is she is deaf. She is an indoor dog and likes a pet door so she can go in and out as she pleases. My wife passed away 1 year ago and I am raising a 13 year old grandson and will soon have a 5 year old grandson to raise. I am having to move and will not able to take Athena. I need to find a good home for her by March 15 or I will have to place her in an animale shelter. The rescue shelters I have called don't have any room for her. Please call Richard @ 770-347-8494.

Hello everyone,
This is Whitey. She's a white pitbull located at Glen Animal Hospital in Sea Cliff, NY and is in DESPERATE need for a caring and loving home. Whitey is as sweet as can be and is special in one unique way; she's deaf. She's been deaf her entire 2 years of life and just wants someone to love her. Unfortunately, Whitey has been in this shelter for a year and a half and hasn't found a home yet since she's deaf. The other urgent and unfortunate part is that if she doesn't find a home by next week, they're going to put her to sleep. I'm asking you all to PLEASE help Whitey find a good home before this amazing dog gets put down. I strongly believe that every dog, whether good or bad deserves a chance at life and deserves to be loved and cared for no matter what.
If you are not interested in Whitey, please be kind enough to pass this email around to everyone that you know so that someone can adopt her. This is very time sensitive, so don't wait until the last minute, every minute of life is crucial to this dog this week and I'm not going to have this dog put down because no one wants her.
If you are interested, please contact the Glen Animal Hospital at 516-671-2800. They are located at 209 Glen Cove Avenue, Sea Cliff, NY 11579.
Even if you or someone you know could foster him until she finds his permanent home, that would be great.
Name: Whitey
Age: 2 years old
Sex: Female
Color: white with some brown spots.
Shots: I believe she should be up to date with all his shots.
Training: Since she is deaf, you need to use hand gestures, almost like sign language to her. The shelter will be able to give you all the info you need.
Thank you all SO much for taking the time out to read this. I'm sure Whitey appreciates it too :)
Sincerely,
Christine Capobianco

This gorgeous girl was turned in by her “owner.” The owner stated she is a DEAF female Pitbull puppy….only 7 months old……just a baby!! Her name is Destiny and she gets along great with dogs and loves children and adults. Since she is an owner surrender, she is available NOW!
Pitbulls are not only absolutely wonderful pups and additions to your family but they are also very intelligent and I know this girl would pick up on hand signals for training very easily!! Please help this beautiful girl. I will send better pictures once I go to the shelter this weekend.
Please continue to cross post if unable to adopt or rescue! Please post to any deaf dog yahoo groups for rescues. The shelter euthanizes on Tuesday mornings…..no one is guaranteed a pass!

This is Tye, we believe he is deaf. We have contacted his owner several times who still has not shown up. Tye's stray hold is up 11.13.10 and since we cannot get his person to come get him he is now available.... however since we believe he is deaf we would prefer he only go to rescue.
He is about year old and extremely wonderful. Very nice friendly boy.
He came in with a broken chain. Lets get him out of here quickly and on to a better life, PLEASE!!!

We are very rescue friendly and are more than happy to work with any rescue group as long as the group has a valid Georgia Department of Agriculture license! Any rescue group, whether in or out of state, that takes pets from Georgia shelters, is required, by Georgia law, to have a rescue license issued by the Georgia Department of Agriculture's Animal Protection Division. Having tax exempt status is not the same as a license. For more information on obtaining a license, please call (404) 656-4914.
