Description

EXTREMELY URGENT! PLEASE, PLEASE HELP ME LIVE!! MY POST IS JUST GOING UP, AND I’M ALREADY RUNNING OUT OF TIME!! I WILL LOSE MY LIFE TOMORROW 8/13 5:00 PM IF I’M NOT ADOPTED! Hi, I'm Roco (ID #A4592710). I am mentally breaking down and can no longer handle being confined for long periods day after day. I am so stressed that I am panting heavily and circling in my kennel! Who can save my life? I am a 3-year-old blue and brindle, neutered American Pit Bull Terrier (67 lbs.). Sadly, this is my third time at the shelter. It seems like I can’t “catch a break”! A previous owner described me as a friendly, happy dog that liked people and children but became anxious when left alone or outside. Volunteers have described me as a mix of independent and affectionate, and one said I was an “absolute pleasure”. I approach with a wagging tail for pets and belly rubs and have been easy to take from and return to my kennel. I will “sit” on cue to take treats gently. I am a moderate pull on-leash. I’m healthy overall but have some patches of missing fur that will need to be monitored. I need out of a shelter environment ASAP. I am hoping for a forever family where I’m not left alone or outside a lot because it makes me anxious. Although I have not been assessed with other dogs during this shelter stay, I am required to be an only dog at this time. Once home, I will need time to decompress and unwind slowly. I would benefit from having a predictable routine to help me feel secure. I hope someone will find it in their heart to adopt me and save my life. Will you be that person? Please come before it is too late! Love, Roco Call ) for assistance, OR go directly to the shelter ASAP to meet me. I am at the West Valley Animal Care Center in Phoenix (2500 S 27th Ave, Phoenix, AZ 85009, (27th Avenue, south of Durango).
