DUTCH – A1050545
Gone 9-14-2015 Manhattan
**GONE 09/14/15** DUTCH is said to be mellow with kids aged 3 years and older, and had been given to his former owner as a gift a few years back. That person has never taken Dutch to a vet, and apparently, has zero interest in taking him with as they move into new digs, either. That is about to have DEADLY consequences for DUTCH, who has done nothing but love his former family and be a steadfast friend to the children. He will be “rewarded” with a lethal injection tomorrow, which is why this NEUTERED, AVERAGE-rated boy needs someone to foster/adopt him tonight!
