Courtesy post for family that rescued Touri: Please contact Kelly if interested in adopting Touri. Info below.
One year old+/- neutered male, Arubian-hound mix.
*He was found injured and thirsty on a beach in Aruba on Palm Sunday, April 2011 by a
tourists family. He was headed for a “kill cage” or to be dropped off on the wild side of
the island to be eaten by wild dogs! The tourists became his rescue family getting him
medical treatment and boarding him at a vet
island. He was named “Tourist” by the vet in Aruba and called “Touri” by his rescue
family.
*Touri has been fostered by his rescue family since his flight to Boston on Easter 2011.
*He has been neutered and received all shots and heartworm & lyme disease
prevention. He has also been micro-chipped.
*Touri recently completed a 6 week basic obedience class.
*He has been evaluated by a behaviorist from the Upper Valley Humane Society as well
as by a rescue dog specialist who both deem him to be “highly adoptable and trainable” :-)
*Touri is very social, friendly and curious!!! He loves kids and other dogs and wishes
that cats wanted to play with him too :-)
*He loves to swim, play ball and have his belly
rubbed. He smiles when he is happy . . .
really!!!
*Touri
access to a dog friend/sibling to play with from
time to time ;-) and a willingness to continue to teach this free-spirited beach boy what it to live in his forever family
