WEB MEMO
Blaze is our mystery man of the evening. He’s a gorgeous mix of a prized Akita blended with a pit bull and he’s reached his middle years. Blaze’s owner barely screeched to a halt in order to toss Blaze into the Manhattan ACC lobby, saying that he has NO TIME for his BFF. Blaze’s owner stopped long enough to say that Blaze has not been socialized around other dogs and that he doesn’t like anyone to touch his food. Blaze ranked as a New Hope Only adoption case along with a recommendation that he be the only dog in the household. Will Blaze think that they’re taking him to meet his family when they harness him for the walk to the Euthanasia Room tomorrow? Of course all dogs need to be monitored especially closely during the first weeks in a new home. Are we dreaming to think of a home and family for this blond boy with big brown eyes? Blaze is moderate in size at only 53-pounds. Do you know someone who’s willing to squeeze a little closer together on the couch?
