Introducing Squire

Written by a CP Intakes volunteer



Squire was taken from his owners due to neglect. Poor baby was severely under weight; the shelter personnel estimated his weight at 9 lbs when he came to them. With two decent meals a day, he gained almost 2 pounds while he was in their care. The shelter held him in case his owners wanted to reclaim him, but didn’t expect them to due to all the fines they faced.

They were right, the owners did not want him, and Squire was put up for adoption. The shelter even made him pet of the week in an attempt to save him as he had been at the shelter the longest of all the dogs. However, the shelter had too many nice small dogs and Squire did not get adopted. Col. Potter was called, and last week Squire became our newest intake.

Let’s all give Squire a big CP welcome.

A New BIG Boy!

Please welcome a new boy to Col. Potter. He was picked up Saturday and he's doing just great. I think he feels like he was let out of jail. It's a big new world for him, and he loves it!

He was very neglected and mistreated and was extremely overgrown. He looked like a little rag muffin! We bathed him twice, trimmed up his face, ears, and tail. Removed a ton of mats and brushed him out. You'd never know it was the same dog. He's a big boy, about 21 lbs. Now we can see his beautiful brown eyes.

He'll make a family very happy. He's a little sweetheart!
