Lousiana:URGENT! Pit Bull on death row in St. Martinville

Please note: Anyone interested in this sweet dog will need to go through an animal welfare group. Due to policy which is strictly adhered to, he is not available for adoption directly to the public.

All cats and dogs at pound in St. Martinville are urgent. Here is a special plea for a special youngster. He is not on Petfinder. His situation is very urgent. Please see Volunteer Marie's message below about how to save his life. Neither Volunteer Marie at the Humane Society nor I are the contact. The pound is the contact. Thank you!

Hi again,

This is the second URGENT appeal for this beautiful young Pit Bull. He is NOT listed in Petfinder, or any online adoption database as to not attract unwanted attention and he is not available for adoption directly to the public. He can only be taken by an animal welfare group.


LISTED BEFORE... Time is short...
Very, very sweet male Pit Bull, 8 months old, not listed on Petfinder.


The pound where he is is a high kill facility and the fact he was not euthanized because of his breed is a testament to his very sweet disposition. He is about 7 months old, 65 lbs and VERY sweet. Pets are given about 2 weeks and he has been there about one month now.

TIME IS RUNNING SHORT!!!!!
.

If you think you can help this beautiful dog, please call the St. Martin Parish Animal Control facility (337-394-1220), leave a message with your phone # and keep calling. Your best chance of catching a human being is early in the morning, at lunch time and after 3 pm. Please DO NOT PROCRASTINATE as this pet's life is on the line!

The facility is a new building located at 1004 Industrial Park Road in
St. Martinville, past Wal Mart, behind the old Fruit of the Loom plant.
Opening hours are Tuesday through Friday 9 am - 6 pm. Saturday 9 am - 2 pm.
Closed on Sunday and Monday.
Special arrangements can be made on request.

The pulling fee for animal groups is $5 with proof of non-profit status
(you can fax it at 337-394-1220.) If you don't have the proper paperwork or
non-profit status, you will be charged the normal adoption fee of $65, but
this entitles you to a $50 spay/neuter certificate and a $10 rabies
certificate.

Do not waste any time
hitting the "Reply" button to ask me more questions
or to make arrangements with me, I have no additional information

and I do not work for the pound, I am only a volunteer.

Contact the pound directly
at 337-394-1220. DO NOT PROCRASTINATE!

Please understand the staff is not in a position to organize transportation.

Please keep me updated and thank you for trying to save a life.
