Fugly...that's his name!

[lv4dogs]

A few of us emailed them. Seems they must be getting a lot of emails, we all got the same reply.

A very short reply just stating that they were trying to keep a "sense of humor" in their shelter and are going to be changing the dogs name.

I hope they change their attitude & the description of the dog too.

Oh good, glad to know that others emailed them too. A sense of humor is one thing, but they went wayyyy too far.

First off, that dog is NOT "fugly". What JERKS! How could anyone name a dog that?!? Secoundly, these staff members are idiots! Like they want that dog to be adopted. Im' sure.

I am very glad to see that it has changed. Poor dog - I think he's quite adorable!

i think he's beautiful!

I missed what they wrote about him before,but i think i dont want to know. poor guy

[Kfamr]

Did anyone mention the fact that his eye is so bad - and asked if he is getting medical attention for it?

[My Peanuts]

I only saw the revised version. I'm so proud of you guys for taking initiative. I swear if I was able to have another dog or was looking for a dog now I would adopt him out of there in a second! He deserves better.

[critter crazy]

they updated the site and changed his name!! however they dont say anything about the dog!! its just a huge appology!!

[Flatcoatluver]

She doesn't appear to be in any pain, and if you would like to donate to have her eye treated, I'm sure she would appreciate it. At the present time, we do not have funds for non-life-threatening medical ailments (we recently had a gun-shot dog and a pregnant dog with a prolapsed vagina come in), but if you donate to her, we will make sure the money goes to treat her. If we get more than she needs, we will use it for other animal's medical needs.

I wish I could donate, how would I do it, to I send them money in the mail?? Should I donate?

Poor Fugly, and they're still calling him MRS..

[lute]

God i wish i could foster him, adopt him, something! especailly if she is offering to drive him to the adopter! i don't even know of anyone preasantly looking for a dog. **if someone from PT adopts him i will pay the $105 adoption fee!**

i'm glad to see they changed his name and the description, but they need to put info about this dog instead of saying sorry.

back when i volunteered at this shelter(3 yrs ago). it was a clean, nice, pleasant place to be. they do have a high adoption rate so i don't agree with those who said they need to be shut down. a lot has changed since i've been there and the people that run the shelter now ran off all the people that were running it "for the animals".

i highly doubt that this dog is getting the vet care he needs for his eye. the shelter doesn't have a lot of money and fundraisers aren't super succesful.

i'd like to also say that i am VERY proud to be a PT member! i'm glad to see that there are members that are willing to call and/or e-mail abouththis dog that lives no where close to them.
