Trey

Trey: This big guy has been through a lot. He was owned by a twenty something that left him chained outside. Trey had broken off the chain several times and was eventually in an accident that cost him his front leg. He was then dumped on the owner's mother and stepdad, and, after they could not care for him (due to their own bunch of dogs and the stepdad leaving the home), Trey wound up at the pound as a stray. He is an impressive 98 lbs without a leg and gets around very well. He is very sweet and loves to cuddle, but still needs an owner with some muscle to walk him. He is a very strong and healthy boy! If you'd like to give Trey a home, fill out an application. Keep in mind that all dogs are born with three legs and a spare!

It only takes a $20 donation!
Remember, any of our dogs can have more than one sponsor!

Please fill out an Application if you are interested in adopting or would like more information about this dog. We receive a large number of emails asking if a particular home or situation is appropriate for a dog in our care. To evaluate this, we need you to fill out an application.

If you have questions about adoption fees and what the fees include, these questions will be answered in the Application information before you fill out any information about yourself. Applications will be responded to before any other inquiries.

We do thank you for considering adopting a dog through rescue and believe that by saving the life of a dog you show that you are a compassionate and caring person. Please remember that we are an all-volunteer, foster-based rescue that receives no government funding and functions on proceeds from our adoption fees and private donations. Please respect the time our volunteer's take away from their family to do rescue and fill out an application before contacting us.

If you have small children, please read this first.
