I'm going to call tomorrow and get more info. He reminds me of a cross between my two dogs. I don't think I can keep him but I know of a couple people who may be interested.
OMG! THAN YOU, THANK YOU! Please let me know how you make out. Sue
I went to the Web site and they said it can be hard to reach them by phone on Saturday. Do you know anything about the shelter? Do they adopt out of state?
hi,
sorry, i don't know anything about the shelter. can you leave a voice mail or send an email? let me know, sue
Jill-

I sure hope they adopt out of state and they get back to you asap. The poor guy will be pts on Tuesday so maybe your call will buy him some time.
I didn't get an answer there today. I'm going to try first thing Monday morning because I would assume there would be less need for people to be out of the office, in the shelter at 8 a.m. on a Monday morning. I figured today that they might have a lot of people coming to look at animals.

I'm hoping, at worst, I can fill out some application form and give them the $50 and they can hold onto him for me. Even if I can't take him, I'd be willing to lose the money to buy him some time. I'll keep everyone posted.

Hey, any Michiganders want to go for a ride to Ohio? Looks like it's about 4 hours away. ;)
You are the best!!!! Thank you for doing this! sue
Road Trip!
I hope your ideas work, I felt so bad when I saw his picture, I'm crossing my fingers that there will be a happy ending!!
They just updated it and said a friend of the pound is coming to shave him. I hope they don't go to the skin.

I'm already talking about him like he's mine. I should not get my hopes up just in case. :?
Oh, he's real cute. Have you heard from them yet? When are you and Jil going to leave for Ohio?

Paula O.

Dogs rule.
I got this guy a home! James's mom actually said that she would foster him for a few weeks and, if they got along well, then she'd keep him. She hasn't had a dog for awhile and missed cleaning up muddy footprints and stuff. ;) Even if she can't take him, I'll have plenty of time to find him a forever home without the worry of him being PTS.

So, I finally got a hold of them in Ohio today. He was out when I actually called because he was at the groomer. They took off what they estimated to be at least 5 pounds of hair by the time he was finished! Look at him now:

New hairdo

He ridiculously cute and they said he's all happy and prancing around, because he's so happy to get those matts off! :clappurple:

He's going to be neutered Thursday and get his heartworm test, Revolution, and other vet business. All in all, very reaonable pricing-- for everything adoption, vet services and neutering-- under $100. So, I'm going to go out there on Friday or Saturday to get him. It all depends if I can take Friday off.

I'm so happy that I could save him! I'll take lots of pictures when I get him back to Michigan. Yay!

Jill
Yay!!!!! :D :D :D
Those pictures look like Ron just photoshopped the hair off of him! It's the same pose only naked.

He looks so happy now.
um... pictures? Where? (I must be blind)
There's a link in ButtersStoch's post labeled as New Hairdo. (It's in blue, Grumbly Bear!!!!!)

AAAAAAAAHHHHHH!!!!

What the heck did they do to that poor dog? LOL
It's so ridiculous that I love it! I've got this cool skull t-shirt and a spike collar for him. He's going to look so tough ;)
You know that they have magnetic earrings for dogs too. Maybe an accent to compliment the collar.
YAY!!!! *sighs* i just love happy endings :D
I think he looks GORGEOUS! : )
Remember, there is NOTHING you can do to "ugly up" a sheepdog...mix : )
I LOVE happy endings!
