Noah Needs Rescue NOW! First Chance for Freedom from Life on a Chain! Leitchfield, KY CONTACT: Sarah at sarahthewayhome@gmail I was recently contacted by a fellow rescue volunteer asking for help. By her own admission, her father has kept his dog, Noah, chained in the back yard his entire life - ABOUT FIVE YEARS! After years of trying to convince her father to release Noah to rescue, the rescue volunteer has succeeded! Noahs owner has agreed to surrender Noah to rescue so he can have a better life where he can be part of a family! His first chance at freedom from life on a chain! Noah is a purebred yellow lab, intact male, and he is 4.5 years old (will be 5 years in December 2014). He weighs approximately 60 pounds. Noah has an excellent disposition and temperament and gets along very well with dogs of all kinds - big, small, hyper, laid back - he loves em all! As you can imagine, he loves people too and wiggles around in excitement when a human visitor approaches. Because he is on a chain, its difficult to determine his energy level accurately. On the extremely rare occassion he gets off of his chain, Im told he runs like lightening for about 1/4 mile then collapses in exhaustion. The rescue volunteer that contacted me regarding Noah said that she felt with reasonable exercise (2 walks a day or a vigorous tennis ball play session), Noah would be a very chill and laid back dog. He has NO food, toy or dog aggression. Hes been known to let possums and racoons steal his own dog food. We are unsure of how he is with cats, but feel that he is so eager to be loved he would likely befriend a cat with no problem. As is common with labs, Noah has a high drive for retrieving. In regards to vetting, he is not neutered, and is not current on any basic vetting. He has shown no outward signs of any illness or medical condition and has been healthy over the years by all outward appearances. At a rescues request, arrangements can be made to get Noah to the vet if they would like to pay for his vetting prior to transport. He is not housebroken because he has never lived indoors. The rescue volunteer is able to get Noah to Lexington, KY, and TWHRA may be able to help with additional transport assistance. If you can help Noah, please email me at sarahthewayhome@gmail as soon as possible. This boy is ready to get off the chain! Thank you, Sarah Jones TWHRA
