CAMERON - LABRADOR RETRIEVER / MIXED (SHORT COAT) DOG FOR ADOPTION

Description

Dog Breed: Labrador Retriever / Mixed (short coat). ***Cameron is scheduled to be transported to NJ and be available for adoption at the Tractor Supply in Ringoes over the Aug 22 & 23 weekend. An application for Cameron’s adoption can be submitted at socorescue (no need to register or login). Questions about Cameron and/or our adoption policy should be sent to socorescue8gmail; please do not call the Rescue's number.*** On a hot, muggy June morning, 11 tiny puppies were found abandoned in a ditch in Uvalda, GA. We know they were purposely left there due to the presence of human foot prints, not paw prints, that were found in the mud around the nearly 3 week old puppies. Two of the pups were already deceased by the time they were found and a third pup passed away while en route to SoCo. The remaining eight pups, all severely dehydrated and covered in mud, were clinging to life with every bit of hope they had. Named in honor of the young man who found this litter, Cameron is one very exceptional puppy. He was so close to death, but fought hard to survive. That will to live will translate into becoming the best dog that someone will ever have. As of August 6th, Cameron has received 2/3 of his first year "puppy" vaccines and will be due his third vaccination on August. 27th. He’s also been de-wormed on multiple occasions and even started on his monthly flea/tick and heartworm preventatives. He will require all of his basic training and his adopter must agree to having him neutered once he reaches 6 months of age and provide verification of such to our rescue.
