Sweet dog looking for cat free home

He’s a lover not a fighter, unless you’re a cat.

The dog above has been met by members of this household and can confirm that he is a Grade A sweetie-pie and if it weren’t for our feeble old feline he would be coming home with us.

From Vic

Though this boy we got is just the sweetest kindest, most cuddly angel…however, he has major instincts to chase and growl at cats. It looks like perhaps he is not right for our family. I’m heartbroken but I know that I have to keep my other furry friends happy as well. If you are interested in perhaps adopting him, please let me know. Otherwise we will be taking him back to the SPCA. He’s great with kids and other dogs and truly is a good listener and housebroken. He deserves a great, loving home. Message me at doulavic@yahoo.com or my number 30seven-604eight if you are interested.

    Have these folks reviewed their agreement with the SPCA? They should probably return the dog to them, as they are better equipped to screen prospective owners etc.

    I’d be careful about returning the dog to the SPCA. We had this exact issue in Charlottesville with a pit-mix (who was erroneously identified as “cat friendly”) we adopted. We had the return the dog to the pound and he was put to sleep as a matter of policy.

    I am pretty sure if they read through the adoption agreement, they’ll see the dog needs to be returned to the SPCA. They are better prepared to work with him on his cat issues or reclassify him as not cat friendly. He’s a handsome boy and I’m quite sure there are lots of homes with no cats that would welcome him.

    Good point, but the Richmond SPCA is a no-kill shelter: I would think that that no-kill policy would apply to non-cat-friendly dogs as well.

    The Richmond SPCA is a no-kill shelter and not the same as “the pound”. I’m pretty certain the dog would not be euthanized. The adoption agreement may even require that the owners contact the SPCA if they can’t keep the dog.
