Related: About this forumA Terrified Puppy Named Moot
Moot's stray hold is up on 3/6/2012.
Nashville, NC - A picture can often portray emotion more effectively than words.The photo captured of a 3 month-old puppy named "Moot" at the Nash County Animal control is one such image.
Instead of the carefree joy typically encounted in young puppies, Moot exhibits absolute terror. According to the individual who captured this image, the first time that she picked him up, he was so terrified that he "poo'd".
No dog should have to experience such terror - a puppy this young should not even know that such terror exists. Moot is described as a 3 month old Lab mix who weighs approximately 10 lbs. Moot was picked up as a stray.
Moot needs to have a person who can make him feel safe and loved. He needs security.

CONTACT: This pet is at the Nash County Animal Control Shelter, Nashville, NC. For more information call the Shelter at 252-459-9855, email AnimalShelter@nashcountync.gov

I hope his new home is much better for him.
