HULK

BY KIM FOLGER

ADOPTER Needed. 8 weeks ago, Hulk was a beloved family pet... best friends of a young boy, wonderful with other dogs, and overall ambassador for the breed. Since then, he has been dumped, drugged, and put in position to fail over and over again by his prior owner. failure part of it. We were contacted by the owner, scrambled around and found quality and loving boarding for Hulk. We also had a good lead on a pit bull friendly apartment that he and his family could have relocated to in the area.

To explain: Hulk, a 2 year old neutered American Bully, lived in an upper apt. with his owner and her young son in South Buffalo. An incident occurred across the street where police showed up with spotlights and a megaphone. Hulk was petrified. At that time, Hulk was able to get out of his unit and ran down the stairs at the same time the downstairs tenant was entering the house. In this perfect storm of chaos, Hulk bit the downstairs tenant, who happened to be a lawyer. There were no stitches, but as lawyers often do, the guy made a big deal out of it and told the landlord the dog would have to go or he would pursue a lawsuit.

The landlord was decent about it. He gave the tenant over a month to find a new place, allowed her to break the lease, AND wouldn’t even charge rent for the month the tenant looked for a new place. He just wanted the dog out so as to avoid getting sued. Fair enough. Here’s the Instead, what does the owner do after requesting our help and after

we come up with a solution?? Gives the dog away to a random person on Facebook. Not two days later, said random person drops Hulk off at the Eden Animal Hospital (same guys who wrongfully locked up Gus). Hulk was understandably anxious and traumatized and the good doctors responded by drugging him until he couldn’t walk. off at the SPCA. He was fearful, and his chances of making it out of there weren’t great. BUT, the SPCA graciously allowed us to take Hulk into our AAO family and put him into a board and train with the incredible BFK9 Training Buffalo New York, where he is now safely decompressing. He started today. He has been through a lot, but we fully believe he will come out the best version of himself in three weeks.

Our wonderful and talented Alana Roberts has secured foster for Hulk, but we are open to adopting him out right away if we find the right fit. He is wonderful with kids and other dogs. Unknown how he is with cats. Given all that he has been through, he will need someone who will go slowly and be gentle with him. We are fully confident that if his adopters follow the blueprint set out by us and BFK9 Training Buffalo New York, Hulk will be a wondeful addition to any home. #AGAINSTALLODDZ. #FindHulkahome.
