The staff at shelters have a deep understanding that life is unpredictable and situations can arise that completely alter one’s circumstances. Losing a job, downsizing a house, experiencing family breakdowns, and failed relationships are all unfortunate events that can significantly impact individuals. The staff at shelters witness the negative consequences of these events firsthand.
Being the sole open admission animal shelter in our county, we are committed to taking in every animal that enters our doors. A considerable number of surrenders we receive are a direct result of significant life changes. Even so, we do not demand much from our community. Our humble request is that you first try to rehome your pets and only consider surrendering them as a last resort. We encourage you to seek help from local rescues, and we urge you to provide us with accurate descriptions of your beloved pets to increase their chances of finding the perfect home. Most importantly, we value honesty because we understand how challenging it can be to let go of a cherished pet.
Meet Kane – a lovable and endearing four-year-old who came to us as a stray around two months ago. Thanks to his microchip, we were able to trace his registered owner. However, when we reached out to her, she shared that she had recently separated from her husband and moved interstate, leaving poor Kane behind with her ex-spouse. She provided us with all the necessary details about him, and we were thrilled at the prospect of reuniting them until we discovered that it was, in fact, Kane’s owner who abandoned him and left him to roam the streets aimlessly.
Kane, the lovable dog, unfortunately became a victim of collateral damage, resulting in neither of his owners willing to take him back. But despite this, Kane’s happy-go-lucky personality remains intact. His face lights up with joy when given attention, and he’s a friendly and affectionate dog that enjoys spending time with people and getting along with other dogs. With a weight of 40lbs, he is quite strong for his size and has an attractive, muscular build. Besides being handsome, Kane is also a bit goofy and gentle. However, it’s been almost two months since he arrived here, and he has received very little attention from anyone except the staff and volunteers who care for him.
Kane may have been abandoned, but he still believes in the power of love. We are confident that the perfect home and owner exists for him – someone who will cherish him and appreciate the lifelong responsibility of pet ownership. Those who have spent time with Kane can attest to his affectionate nature; he is not interested in material possessions like treats or toys, but simply craves human touch and affection. Kane loves nothing more than lounging in the sunshine with his owner, feeling the warmth of a loving embrace and basking in the joy of shared moments.
How about we get him some medical attention and then safely bring him back to his place?
