Meet Chloe! Chloe was surrendered by her owners at a local shelter. She is a 2 ½ year old female Neapolitan Mastiff & weighs in at a comfy 145 pounds! Chloe was pretty stressed at the shelter having never been confined before. Now that she has been at one of our vets for a week, she is doing much better. She loves to run around outside and play catch-me-if-you-can. When she is tired, she will head back to the door to let you know that she is ready to go back inside. She takes treats ever so gently from you and is fabulous on a leash!

Chloe would do best as an only dog (might possibly be OK with a larger male dog) and an experienced owner. No children or cats. Chloe needs a foster or forever home with a family that is experienced with the Mastiff breed. Although there are so many gracious people wanting to help a big girl like Chloe, she really needs to go to an experienced Mastiff owner. Chloe has been boarding entirely too long now & it’s starting to take a toll on her. Having been raised since a puppy as a house dog, boarding has been extremely stressful on her and we are desperate to get her into a foster home and ASAP. If you cannot foster and still want to help Chloe, she could definitely benefit from walk and time out of the kennel. She is boarding out near Sugar Land and they have fenced in yards at the facility if you are interested in visiting with her. It would be a great benefit to her health to have walks more often!

Chloe is fully vetted and just missing a foster home or forever home! If you can foster Chloe, please Dana Dicker at dana.l.dicker@gibraltarmortgagesvcs.com or info@scoutshonor.org. To read about Scout's Honor's adoption procedures, to fill out an application for Chloe, or to make a donation for Chloe’s care, please visit our website at www.scoutshonor.org. As always, Scout's Honor pays all costs associated with fostering, and if requested, the foster can receive a tax deduction receipt from Scout's Honor for all of his or her own documented expenses related to fostering.

I rescued a human today.

Her eyes met mine as she walked down the corridor peering apprehensively into the kennels. I felt her need instantly and knew I had to help her. I wagged my tail, not too exuberantly, so she wouldn't be afraid.

As she stopped at my kennel I blocked her view from a little accident I had in the back of my cage. I didn't want her to know that I hadn't been walked today. Sometimes the shelter keepers get too busy and I didn't want her to think poorly of them.

As she read my kennel card I hoped that she wouldn't feel sad about my past. I only have the future to look forward to and want to make a difference in someone's life. She got down on her knees and made little kissy sounds at me. I shoved my shoulder and side of my head up against the bars to comfort her.

Gentle fingertips caressed my neck; she was desperate for companionship. A tear fell down her cheek and I raised my paw to assure her that all would be well.

Soon my kennel door opened and her smile was so bright that I instantly jumped into her arms. I would promise to keep her safe. I would promise to always be by her side. I would promise to do everything I could to see that radiant smile and sparkle in her eyes.

I was so fortunate that she came down my corridor. So many more are out there who haven't walked the corridors. So many more to be saved. At least I could save one.
