Matt - In Memory



Name: Matt
Age: 6 - 7 years (estimated)
Breed: Lab Mix?
Sex: Male (not altered)
Location:  Southeastern Virginia


Vet Info:  Matt is not yet neutered and has not had a recent heartworm test.  He was given a one-year rabies vaccine and one-year bordetella on 1/15/2013, and the shelter where he was previously administered a one-year "annual" vaccine on 1/3/13.  Matt weighs 50 pounds.

Owner Info: Matt was picked up as a stray and taken to the local high kill shelter.  A local rescue/humane society rescued him before he was euthanized.  Unfortunately, it is nearly impossible to find a home for a special needs dog in their small area, and they are a very small rescue/humane society.  They have had him for over a month, and there has been no interest.  Matt is currently housed at the vet clinic as they have not yet found a foster for him.  They are unsure whether he is housebroken.  Matt is leash trained, and is good with people of all ages, both male and female dogs, and cats!  He's never shown any aggression, and has even gone to adoption events where he is wonderfully behaved and very calm.  He appears totally blind in both eyes, but seems healthy otherwise, and even has good teeth!
