Subject: Fwd: 3-legged great lab shunned due to new baby-

HERE COMES BABY AND "OUT" GOES A HANDICAPPED 3 LEGGED DOG - UNBELIEVEABLE!! WHAT PEOPLE DO

Poor, sweet baby. No longer wanted by her family. Plz cross post for her. See below. Call Karen at�678-469-8675�or email her at karenhir@ gmail.com

Meet Mia---GREAT dog, needs great owners

Mia is a beautiful, three-legged dog whose owners have decided to get rid

of her because they may be adopting children soon!� She isn't used to

children, so she has snapped at a few young, rowdy children that have come

to the house.� I used to have a three-legged dog who snapped at children

too, so I taught my toddler daughter to leave her alone, and I crated her

when necessary.� Maia's owners aren't willing to do that.� They have her

boarded at Dearborn Animal Clinic, and she has been in a cage/run there for

almost two months without any visitors!

They are going to have her euthanized in a week if no one adopts her, and

they haven't really tried to find a home for her!

The owners say she'd do best in a home without children or other dogs, but I

think she'd do fine with older, calmer children and submissive dogs, since

three-legged dogs are often insecure and feel threatened by more dominant

dogs.� Please see attached flier for picture and details.� If you can take

or foster this baby, please email me at karenhir@gmail.com.

Please help save this sweeties life!!!
