MAJOR IS A PRECIOUS PURE BRED YELLOW LAB. HE IS ABOUT 7-8 YR. OLD. WE ARE SEARCHING FOR A "FOREVER FOSTER" HOME FOR HIM.
Major's story is sad and seen way too often. He was purchased as a puppy, brought home and put outside - alone. Never allowed inside with his family. He just sat there all day every day waiting and hoping for the next time someone came outside to pet him. His vet visits were sporadic, and never included any heartworm prevention.
A little over a year ago his family's home was destroyed. They had to move in with relatives and there was nowhere for Major to go. He was then housed in an outside "pen" for 9 months where a neighbor put out food and water (on an irregular basis).
We found out about his situation and brought him into the rescue. Major had a tremendous amount of medical and physical problems from his years of neglect. His ears were so infected that he almost lost his hearing. We have finally cleared the infection but there will be ongoing maintenance. He had horrendous skin issues. We are in ongoing treatment and things are improving. He is still heartworm positive and will be treated when he has a quiet, stable environment.
We would like to find the PERFECT home for Major to get the love and attention he has never had. Someone to be home with him and have him be their main focus. We would like a child-free, other dog-free home. He needs patience, consistency, and love.
Because Major will still have vet visits, nutrition supplements, special food, etc. we are asking for a permanent foster home. Meaning we will provide everything he needs for the rest of his life. We will be checking on him and will be available for any help necessary.
We have so much more we can tell you about him. If you have any interest in being this boy's guardian, please email [email protected].
