About Red

Red is in urgent need of a foster or adopter to rescue him from a troubling situation. At just 10 months old, he currently lives chained in a Georgia junkyard, surviving among old vehicles and debris. Despite his harsh conditions, Red retains his sweet nature and friendliness toward people and children. This male Lab/Staffy mix weighs about 45 pounds and has a striking reddish coat complemented by amber eyes. Red has lived outside for too long, and while we cannot confirm if he's house-trained, he will require guidance to adjust to indoor living. This spirited pup deserves a loving home where he can experience the comfort of shelter instead of hiding under cars. The rescue is willing to handle his vaccinations, deworming, and neutering, but he urgently needs a safe space to call home. Please consider fostering or adopting Red; he should know love and security instead of living in fear. Red needs someone now. Please help us get him out.
