| Travolta |
Travolta is a four year-old terrier mix, adopted a couple of years ago, only to have been returned now. The humans got divorced, and no one seemed to care enough to keep him. I can’t help but think, no wonder there was a divorce! So now he sits in the kennel, without a home. Not even a foster home. Those are all full. This poor boy is not surviving the lonely kennel life very well. He needs a Thundershirt to help quell the anxieties that are overtaking him.
Why anxious? Travolta is a people-dog. Just like there are people-persons, dogs can be like that, too. He lives and breathes for the companionship of humans. It was humans who caused him to end up in a rescue in the first place, it was humans who adopted him, only to return him two years later. And yet, he is still full of trust and loyalty when it comes to his two-legged fellow creatures. This guy knows how to spell f-o-r-g-i-v-e!
Travolta loves when the volunteers come to walk the dogs and spend time with them. He gets depressed, though, when it’s time to go back to his room, because he knows those people will be leaving – and won’t be back for a few hours. Who knows, maybe he’s afraid he’s being abandoned yet again. All he wants is a little love. He offers everything he can in return. He’s a good boy – leash-trained, housebroken, able to follow basic commands. He must sit at the kennel wondering what he’s done wrong.
He’ll need someone who will be with him when he goes outside, because he’s a fence-jumper. He loves walkies, though, as well as playing with his toys. He gets along well with children and other dogs, doesn’t need to be crated, and is an all-around good boy.
Up-to-date with vaccinations, neutered and microchipped, Travolta is more than ready to go Home. If you live in the Chicagoland area and would like to foster or adopt him, he is available through Almost Home Foundation.
I made a wish upon a star, I turned around and there you were.
And now here we are.
Hi there,
Yes, me again, Penny the Jack Russell dog.
My human has told me about the human Travolta. Something about getting a fever on Saturday night and welcoming back a teacher named Kotter. My human also tells me that the human Travolta starred in the worst movie, ever, ‘Battlefield Earth’.
However, I digress. Now then, this lovable canine named Travolta would be a welcome addition to a loving home. I do so wish he has a home, via the Almost Home Foundation, real soon.
Pawsitive wishes and doggy kisses, Penny xx
Well, thank you, Penny! Mom doesn’t know that one about Battlefield Earth, she’s going to have to get with it! But yes, that is indeed the Travolta she was referring to. I really like this dog – he’s a star! BOL Wags, CindyLu xx
