Gillee A1075516, 2 year old golden retriever with the cutest sharpei nose!!!! Urgent!GILLEE ONLY HAS EYES FOR YOU.
CREAMY AND OH-SO-SWEET. WILL BLEND INTO ANY DISH (OR HOME)
Such a lovely girl, patiently waiting in her ISO cage, alone. When the door opens, Gillee (A1075516, 2 year old golden retriever with the cutest sharpei nose, was red-listed on 11/15 -- so out of time this Sunday) springs up, tail wagging. And while we might think that the red around her eyes and the tears rolling down her cheeks are from crying because she can't come out and play, the truth is that poor little Gillee has some type of skin infection around her eyes. Skin scrapings did not show anything and she will need further treatment to find out what is going on. Please consider this loving girl who has seen only neglect in her young life. Call the South L.A. Shelter at (213) 485-0117 or -0119 to save her and make that tail wag again. Kindly let me know as well. Thanks for caring about shelter dogs.

I LET HIM HURT ME -- I DIDN'T EVEN CRY OUT!!! NOW MY COLLAR IS ONE OF BANDAGES. Roman (A1075340, neutered, sharpei/pit mix, red-listed on 11/15 and needs out immediately) was attacked by another dog -- the day before he was supposed to join us at Best Friends -- the day before he would undoubtedly have been rescued, his life spared. Instead, he suffered at the jaws of another who refused to let go of his ear. Teeth sunk in, blood poured out. But, Roman didn't fight back, his strength of character, his gentle nature, held firm. How can this sad-eyed, trusting soul now lose his life for something he didn't do? The vet staff spared him in the hopes that we could find someone to have pity, to have love for this boy whose family lost their home and brought him to the shelter -- another big brown dog without a chance. His bandages will fall off in time, his ear will heal (needs vet treatment!!) -- and the memory will fade. Please help Roman find love again. Call the South L.A. shelter at (213) 485-0117 or -0119. Many thanks, Andrea franksable@msn.com (323) 363-4909  • Email to a friend • Related • Bowie (A1075979, 2 year old lab/hound) so sweet!BOWIE'S A GRINNER
A REGULAR WRIGGLER WIGGLER Who wouldn't want to have this happy yet soulful guy at their side? If you can save his life, please act quickly and call the South L.A. shelter at (213) 485-0117 or -0119.
BUT A GOOD LISTENER TOO Bowie (A1075979, 2 year old lab/hound, red-listed on 11/15 -- so has until 11/22!!!) has been in ISO while at the shelter -- so few have had the pleasure to make his acquaintance. Because Bowie has a luxated elbow. An old injury, abnormally healed, Bowie walks like an old cowboy who has been on one too many trail rides -- sweeping his front left leg out to the side, in a circular motion, then bringing it back in. But, while he doesn't seem to care much and gets around with speed, he needs to see an orthopedist.
