Henderson, NC - Bobby

chicagojosh · 01-12-2012, 09:51 AM

hello moderators,

I saw a GSD on Facebook that will be put to sleep today if not adopted, a sweet dog, 4 years old in Henderson NC at Vance County animal control. His name is Bobby.

thanks

oh, here's his pic. I just e-mailed them...im not sure what the $100 is for, but offer it pay it if it'll buy him time.

Bobby is not listed on the Vance County petfinder. Maybe you should call them and ask for details on him?

Please help Bobby if you can. I found a like on Facebook. I already e-mailed them. They are looking for $100 to "increase his chances of adoption" I offered to pay that, although don't know what that means. Am I buying him more days? paying for vet stuff? anyone know?

He is in Vance County Animal Control, and gas/heart stick kill shelter on "Death Row" I believe scheduled to die TODAY.

middlemutts@aol.com was the e-mail provided on FB. Here is his pic.

thanks

Jax your brilliant!

Ok, he is there, but in no danger of being PTS! this facebook post said his time was up today. I honestly feel like an idiot now, and should have called first.

They said he just got in, and has a 72 hour window before he could even be up for adoption. She said since the FB post went up she's gotten 10 calls this morning alone!!!! makes you feel good.

She said he'll be adopted back out in no time.

yay for Bobby! Boo for me. Next time I see something like this I'll investigate more before post.

Moderaters you can please delete both my posts about Bobby now.

please delete. I called animal control and Bobby is safe. Facebook misled me. sorry!

NEVER apologize for posting a shelter dog. Better safe than sorry. All the apps. are great, but if I were you, I would keep in touch with the shelter, until I was sure "Bobby" was out. No dog is really safe, while he is still in the shelter.

Hi Jamie,

I posted in Urgent because at the time I believe Bobby was going to be put to sleep like any minute now. I did look at the rules, but missed the chip in stuff. I just wanted to get something up quick since i thought this truely was urgent, maybe even a matter of hours or minutes.

But yes, lessons learned thats for sure. this was my first "rescue post" I'm 0 for 1 lol
