Here's what the humans have to say about me:
BLAKE SHELTERTON (TENNESSEE)
Blake Shelterton is a 1-year-old (estimate), 13-pound Yorkie mix being fostered in Ashland City, TN.
UYR wishes to congratulate Blake Shelton on being voted People magazine’s 2017 Sexiest Man Alive. However, we urge Blake Shelton not to rest too comfortably on his laurels because we feel like UYR’s very own Blake Shelter-ton is going to give him a run for his money! We think our Blake is a FOUR CHAIR TURN!
This precious soul was passed around between acquaintances FIVE TIMES before being dumped at a shelter. A concerned fellow rescuer took it upon herself to find this boy a way out by literally tagging every person they knew with his Facebook shelter post until UYR heard about his case. A team of 6 people were involved in pulling him from the shelter and transporting him to his foster home where he landed just in time for Christmas! And what a miracle that is in and of itself! You see, with each “hand off” Blake became more and more anxious. At the shelter he started to just shut down completely. We knew we needed to act quickly and now Blake Shelterton is a UYR pup with a great name befitting his handsome self! He was so happy to get out of the shelter he practically suffocated his transporter with gratitude kisses!
Blake is adjusting to life in a normal, stable home environment. He’s scared and a bit skittish but we think with tincture of time and lots of TLC he will be a great pet. He will need a patient adopter willing to work with him but he is a very young boy so his behavior should be fairly easy to shape. We would be so very grateful for any help towards his medical care. Do help Blake realize his potential as UYR’s sexiest DOG ALIVE please go to our website, www.uyr.us click the Looking for Love link, scroll to TN and locate Blake’s Bio.
