BHRR's Little Tyke(LT), SN's Great Dane, ON, CDA

LT(deaf GD) is still hoping for his special home. To read about LT's amazing story; please visit:

http://www.birchhaven.org/special_needs_animals.htm

LT has put on almost 30 pounds since he arrived in our program and he is such a wonderfully sweet boy!

BHRR does have an application process which includes a questionnaire; reference checks including a Vet reference if applicable and a homevisit before any adoption is approved.

Little Tyke

If I read correctly he has been available for adoption since the end of May. Have you not had anybody interested in adopting him yet?

Little Tyke

Wow, I am surprised. Usually when people hear about a dog with special needs needing a new home people are lined up at the door.
Is he on Petfinders?

Yes, he is on our PetFinder website as well and in my experience; I have not found what you are stating to be the case for SN's Giant Breeds.

Thanks LP, Frenchy and HB! LP and Frenchy you can smooch all over him on Saturday!

He is beautiful and hopefully the right person/family will come along soon. I certainly wouldn't have any problem adopting him if I were in a position to do so.

Good luck.
