Fox 8 Cleveland Morning Show

Here is the video from Fox 8 Cleveland Morning Show with NCGC President Bill Taylor and the stars of the show, Willow and Cookie on March 7, 2011.

 

Ty (previously MAcho)


Who wouldn't love to help this guy?  Meet Ty (pka Macho) 3yrs. This handsome young boy is being returned and is looking for a foster home to love on him until he finds a new forever home. Ty is a big lover who thinks he is a lap dog! Ty has a high prey drive so can't go to a home with cats. He walks well on lead and is housetrained. Ty is being returned for inappropriate chewing of wooden items in his house. All Ty needs is some positive reinforcement on chewing the correct items, like pb filled kongs, knucklebones, nylabones, etc... If you would like to be part of Ty's happily ever after story by fostering him until his new family finds him please contact us.

Check out our Website to help Ty.

He is getting stronger every day . His soon to be new mom and dad love him very much . He has been trying to play with his new little brother Frankie . But he still tires out very quickly . Next week makes week number 5 post surgery .Which means he will have Radiographs to see if the bone graft is holding up and getting stronger. He is such a trooper , and has handled all of this very well . We all need to keep our fingers crossed that all goes well.
Keep getting stronger Blitzen.
