A male dog was signed over to a kill shelter only had a few hours left to live because his owner claimed that he is gay.
Humping behavior is typically a sign of dominance in dogs, and unfortunately due to the ignorance of the dogโs former owner, the Pit Bull / Bulldog mix had only a few hours left to live.
Facebook user Jackson TN Euthanasia commented, โEven if that werenโt the most assinine thing Iโve ever heard, its still discrimination! Donโt let this gorgeous dog die bc his owner is ignorant of normal dog behavior!โ
Animal lover Stephanie Fryns has rescued Elton the dog from the animal shelter were he was scheduled to be gassed |
Luckily, the dog was saved just in time. The dog has been named Elton and taken by Stephanie Fryns, a veterinary tech from Jackson.
Elton weighs around 50 pounds and โwas pretty friendly so far. Heโs pretty scared of everything, which is understandable. But he loved the car ride.โ
Stephanie said, โI am going to foster him and have him neutered and vetted, then place him in a forever home that meets all rescue requirements for him.โ
