Last edited Mon May 19, 2014, 04:12 PM - Edit history (1)

A friend of mine's son has a roommate moving to an apartment with a no dogs policy and he and his girlfriend have full time day jobs where they can't really take care of him.
I don't have any more details at the present but if anyone wants to know PM me and I can get you a phone number.

Puppy has a new home.

Reputable breeders will and do take back their dogs at any time.

I just told my friend I'd pass the word around. I'll see her tonight at the dance show and see if I can get more details.

And specifically a woman named "Patty Lepler Alexander" who they can find on Facebook. I believe Patty was with Austin Pets Alive at one time, but has now formed her own rescue group.

Even if neither of those choices can help, they can still spread the word about this dog and get him some exposure for potential adoption.
