My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Meet me Hollywood Feed in Olive Branch, Ms Saturday, October 27th from 11am to 2pm!
Willie looks better now that he has been shaved. He feels better too! His eyes have cleared up and seem to be fine now. His skin looks so much better now with the Chephalexin antibiotics he's been on. His vision isn't 100% but he can see. He likes to bark at the squirrels when he see's them or the horses outside.
He has his own special personality. He only likes to be petted or picked up when he wants it. He may growl or snap at you if you try to pick him up when he doesn't want to be picked up. But he will jump up when he wants you to pick him up. So we don't feel like he would be good around small children. He loves to follow you around as you're doing you house hold chores.

Willie was neutered 9-13 and got a microchip. While he was knocked out they were able to clean up his matted head. He is estimated to be about 3 years old and he's heartworm negative.
No owner ever came forward to claim him.
Willie's adoption fee is $120. (It will have to be a special home that can work with his personality)

We could really use some donations to help cover his medical expenses.
