He is a cute little guy I would say he probably weighs about 5-6 pounds, is white with brownish red markings on his head and one brownishred oval shape mark on his lower back close to his tail. I slowly started to put my hand out to him for him to smell it and he went berserk and did a backwards flip out of the girl's arms and landed in a filthy mud puddle on his back and it terrified him even more because he was basically like a turtle on its back for several seconds befor ehe finally managed to turn himself back over. I told the girl to pick him back up not to leave himt here he was terrified, so she did pick him back and continued to stand out in the freezing cold talking to me while that poor little guy shivvered somethign terrible. He is intact andnot house broken. They have apparently kept him in the house and he was to serve stud purposes only they haven't even tried to socialize the little guy except for the ones living there. No doubt in my mind once he is around someone for a couple days and learns to trust them he will be just fine. I would gladly take him myself but we already have 4 and that is the limit our land lord will allow. I finally left and simply told her I would probably take him if they could keep him till I got moved (12/1) and she said they would. I figured I could socialize him then try finding him a forever home. This little guy deserves much better than he is getting there, the woman is very angry with him because he is peeing on things in the house. I saw a small pen on their front porch made with chicken wire so I asked her "Surely you dont' keep him in there do you?" she said no but I wouldn't put it pass them to put him out there because of his peeing on things in the house. Do you have room for this little guy or do you know of anyone that would take GOOD care of him and give him a FOREVER home? PLEASE let me know something soon as I am moving this coming weekend and I want to make sure he is settled somewhere or at least definite plans are made to get him settled...Cookie Hilderbrand (Piketon OH)
