Senior's Deserve Better

Kevlar's story is absolutely heart breaking.

We were contacted by the CRD Pound asking for assistance with a senior boy they had in their care. Kelvar is a senior who has not lived the life he should have had. With no ears and no tail due to a home crop operation this boy has lived a life that most could never dream of.

For the majority of his life Kevlar was kept by a guy who was ultimately breeding dogs for the purpose of fighting them, although Kevlars owner was not fighting his dogs he was breeding them for others to fight. (Yes! there is dog fighting in BC)

For Kevlar his life was spent kept together with three other much larger and younger unneutered males who routinely beat him to a pulp. However, Kevlar knew he could do better and on several occasions was found running at large. Kevlar eventually wound up at the shelter, permanently homeless, but finally loved by shelter staff.

Surprisingly to staff even through being repeatedly attacked by other dogs Kevlar hasn't shown any signs of aggression with the dogs in their runs. In fact Kevlar actually gets through the play yard gates to lay along side the dogs in their runs. (Note: Not all dogs that have scars are dog aggressive see BADRAP)

Staff say he is a typical Pit Bull when in his kennel he likes to stand up against his door and cry like a baby for attention.

Kevlar is up for adoption and if you are interested in opening up your home to this sweet old man you wont regret it.

Seniors are by far the hardest to place, but are the most deserving. Please think about helping to make the remaining time he has left the best he could ever hope for.
