    Turner, perhaps a transport could get Orin to your friend or maybe flying him there? I would be willing to pitch in to help cover the cost of his airfare.

    I am also willing to pich in to the cost of the air fare if that's the only we could save Orin.

    Reading Orin's story makes me cry. He looks so adorable in the picture. God bless you John for taking time to find a loving home for this wonderful pup....

    Keep us posted and Orin will always be in our prayers....

    John, have you tried 'Best Friends Sanctuary' it is not too far from you and they are in Kanab, Utah. They take animals from all over the country who need help and there is a good possiblity they would take Orin in. He is just beautiful, and it breaks my heart to see him in this situation. Good Luck

    hey guys!! please don't forget the two other dogs that need homes posted just a day before
    Orin.. One dog actually has found a home since but the older dog - well, lets just say i will have to make a tough decision in seven days . the sanctuaries are full.....yes, i've tried everyone i know of. pray hard that both orin and shortnen find homes quickly. (i'm just jealous that orin gets attention and shortnen gets pts! she's a love dog too ) but if i hear of someone who wants a male large dog....he's got my vote!! and i'll make sure to spread the word.

    As usual, if we can get Orin to Fort Wayne, I'm sure Mike would be willing to take him. Poor guy. We can't afford the airfare, but if push comes to shove, we will take him as long as the current owner will pay to have him shipped or can arrange transport.

    My Lovey Sweet Guy Orin

    THANK YOU ALL SOOO MUCH FOR YOUR LOVING CONSERN This Sweetie Orin and I, have a 10 year history, but due to some unfortunate events within this last year, we were forced to relocate. The home we are leasing has a 1-pet clause which I was aware of when I moved here. I thought I could "Fudge" a little and slip my Beloved Ole'Man Orin in,unnoticed.....I was WRONG..!!! Now I've been given an ultimatum....Get rid of my "Orrie" or move. I've been crying for a week straight.!!! My heart is being ripped from my chest.!!! Moving at this time is not an option....So I'm left with no other choices than to find another home for Orin or put him to rest with his brother who past on in Feb. He has some minuses, but many more pluses.....He's not nutuered and is 12 years old. But he's a Sweet, loving soul, that loves nothing better than to lay his face or paw in your lap for a love. One seems to forget his advancing age when your around him for a while, he's got a very young spirit... Very well manered and so full of love... very low maintenance....No bad habits except he's not keen on cats....I'm not sure why, but since I didn't get him until he was 2, I'm sure it was formed early on. I must make a decision by Saturday, but please know that what ever is done, it will be done with much sorrow. Thank you all again for your thoughts and prayers. John, U R the BEST...!!!!!

    Robyn, is there no way you can find someone who could foster Orin? Saturday is too soon. I know you are in a sticky situation. We need to hurry up.

    Robyn, I private messaged John and he hasn't responded yet. We would be willing to take him if you could get him to us. I hope you come back well before Saturday.

    I hope it would work out.. You're such an angel Mugsy!!!

    Robyn/John - there are members who are willing to chip in for the expenses in transporting Orin . I know that it's a little bit expensive to transport a big dog like Orin, but we're willing to take a share... I'm really worried on Orin and Shortnen..... I only live in a 1 bedroom apt. and we are also limited to 1 pet per household and I already have my baby Missy with me....

    I'll keep on praying that Orin and Shortnen will have a happy ending....

    God bless everyone!

    doghelper,

    Sorry it has taken me so long to reply back, I was trying to get ahold of my friend and finally did yesterday.

    I am very sad to say that they can't take another dog. They do have 1 already and they went to get permission from their landlord. They were told no they couldn't have a BIG DOG!!

    That just bites..I can't stand it when stupid landlords tell you that you can have a dog....as long as its a small dog.

    A dog is a dog what ever the size!

    Sorry but I do hope Orin finds a home before he has to go to puppy heaven!!! It is such a sad story and if I could take him, I would in a heartbeat!

    I am also willing to pitch in for the expense to get him to a home!
