Stunning 11 month old blue brindle Staffie to be euthanized in the morning because he has kennel cough which will go away in a little over a week! Just doesn’t seem fair – can anyone squeeze this beautiful (inside & out) dog into their hearts and rescue?
Billy was given up by his owners because they live in nyc housing and the city has recently imposed weight limits, leaving hundreds of beloved pets at city shelters to die.

He had a fabulous evaluaion:

His former owners also tell us that he loves all people and kids too, is housebroken, likes other dogs (doesn’t like cats).
