Shar pei mix??? No inquires as of yet?

No real inquires yet...even after the 1pm tv show BUT the news station is going to air the segment again this week on the 10pm news! YAAAY, so we're hoping that this time, we might get some inquires!

Unfortunately I have the feeling as well as another gal that goes out and walks Tivi that they are going to make it very difficult for the prospective adopter. They have voiced on a number of occasions when I am there that they really do not want him to go anywhere. One of the gals last time was talking about building him his own area with grass and trees and putting a house out there for him and just letting him stay with them. I told her I did not think that was in Tivi's best interest and she said she knew she just didn't want to see him go. I am really hoping something works out soon before this dog becomes a lifer and they decide not to adopt him out.

I guess pulling him into foster is still out of the question for them?

He really needs to get out! If for no other reason than to get his weight under control. Do they even realize how horrible it is for them to keep feeding him junk and putting extra weight on(so bad for his hip). Plus he could be better evaluated for dog/cat aggression and learn or relearn basic household manners.

When you told me about them talking about making his own area, etc. I was annoyed. To be honest it really pissed me off! He deserves so much more and he can and will get it if they don't stand in the way.

he needs a real home/family - it is about him!

They will not let anyone foster any large dogs at all. They did say that if a rescue pulls the dogs they will let them go. It worried me too Shelly when Randa said that. I know she may have just been talking from sentimentality. I am hoping they can keep clear head.

I'm hoping to as well.

I can see making sure the adopter is a good fit, but I don't want them making it impossible for him to leave either.

I wonder if that is why they are making things so restrictive. Also wondering if a vet has said him living with other dogs and cats wouldn't work because of his skin....btw any idea if they have tried the stuff I sent for his skin?

Also any word on whether he really is aggressive with cats?

I know the shelter is not pit bull savvy and all, but it seems like You, Angela and others are doing everything they can to promote Tivi and make him comfortable. Frustrating I wish I was there...although with Khan and 4 cats I am far from the ideal home!

Just wanted to let y'all know that Tivi's video aired again last night on the 10 o'clock news and it was a success!

The shelter is getting quite a few calls and emails!!!! Now just keep our fingers crossed his home is in one of those applications!
