BASTON – A1081582
Gone - 7-26-2016 Manhattan
**GONE 07/26/16** POLYDACTYL FRONT PAWS make for an extra dose of ALL THE FEELS, when someone considers the plight of poor BASTON. This 15-year-old senior gent is already neutered and must have been someone’s love, for at least a portion of his life, because who doesn’t just immediately fall in love with that face? Times have been hard for BASTON since he arrived at the ACC on July 17th, and maybe even since a bit before that, because this champion AVERAGE boy is suffering from an ear infection. It’s all there in the ACC’s medical notes, along with a bunch of guesses as to why they think he may not be feeling his best. WHAT DO THEY KNOW? How to kill, for sure, which is what they are planning to do to BASTON tomorrow; they certainly have no concrete idea about how to make him feel better. BASTON deserves to enjoy the rest of his life as a love-love-loved pet! Make that possible by advocating everywhere for him, tonight!
