Showing posts with the label breed discrimination

My individual character doesn't matter? Am I only assumed to be a type of breed?

Sissy is a beautiful baby girl who adores children and she gets so animated for her toys and playtime.  Sissy is a well-behaved Bully mix puppy with hazel eyes, about 9 months of age, spayed, and debuting for adoption today at Nevada SPCA.  Please puppy-proof your home and yard for her safety. Sissy is reportedly housetrained and crate-trained.  She needed us because her previous owner's HOA ruled that Bully breeds are not permitted in their home.

How could you hate me? I am an angel too.

Tess is a gleeful, jubilant puppy debuting for adoption today at Nevada SPCA.  She is reportedly housetrained, crate-trained, good with kids, and always seeking attention.  Tess is a pretty Bully mix, about 8 months of age, and spayed.  Please puppy-proof your home and yard for her safety. She needed us when her previous owners were threatened with eviction for having a "pit bull".  We offered them guidance to protect the dog from the landlord's discrimination, but they said they were too fearful of losing their apartment to pursue our recommendations.  Tess did nothing wrong, and she never asked to be born, so please help her find someone wonderful who will love her and keep her safe for her entire happy life.

I am well-behaved, but the landlord booted me.

Update: Rocky was adopted on February 12th! Rocky indeed has a heart of gold. He is understandably confused about why he lost his previous home.  He is reportedly housetrained, compatible with kids and many dogs, and even knows some basic training commands.  But the landlord reportedly would not allow him because of his breed designation, which is a real shame because individual personality is far more indicative of behavior than breed designation. Rocky is a handsome American Bulldog, neutered boy, 2 years young, and he debuts for adoption today. This youngster yearns for a stable home environment where he can share his love without fear of being abandoned again.

I lost my previous home due to being stereotyped.

Update: Roman was adopted on August 14th! Roman is a noble, handsome boy with a colorful personality. He is a Rottweiler and Doberman Pinscher mix, neutered, about 5 years of age. Roman is reportedly housetrained (with a doggie door) and compatible with other friendly dogs his size. He also reportedly enjoys older, mature kids, but is fearful of very young children. He needed us when his owner moved and Roman was rejected by the new landlord due to having partial Rottweiler breeding. As you know, the issue of breed discrimination has been looked into thoroughly. Aggressive dogs are not identifiable by breeds, but instead by particular temperaments in hostile homes with inadequate socialization and environments. Roman knows basic training commands in both English and German. He debuts for adoption today and anxiously awaits a forever home.
