This handsome young Kuvasz is about a year old. He ended up in a kill shelter in South Georgia. How hopeful he looks despite the sterile, small cage he is in!
Unfortunately, his chances were slim - not only is he a very big dog (hard to place), a very rare breed (i.e., no breed rescues were going to come help him), and stuck in a rural shelter (not many adopters), he is also has heartworms (an expensive condition to treat).
We heard about him from a Great Pyr rescue that could not take him (Pyrs and Kuvasz are very close relatives). They forwarded an email from the shelter saying he little time left - if no one could take him, he would be killed.
We started emailing our friends to find someone to save his life.
