Midnight
 |
As told by Diane, an independent rescuer in NC... "Midnight was an owner surrender in the summer of 2009. He was not quite a year old. He was fostered by a woman that used to volunteer with us. She has two Chinese crested dogs, both around 7-8 pounds. Midnight kept trying to play with them, but they were afraid of him, and she was afraid they'd get hurt. So she put him outside to be a "guard dog". He seems to really like other dogs. She never spends time with him other than just feeding him once a day. He was on a very long tether and i've never seen him run free. I've been trying to place him since last summer. "
Jessica with Black Dog Rescue in Maine offered to take Midnight and find him a forever family of his own.
