On Monday, the Patrick County Animal Shelter contacted Angels of Assisi about seven 4-month-old Anatolian Shepherd/Hound mix puppies and seven one-month-old Pit Bull/Terrier mixes, along with their 2-year-old mother, because they were at risk of euthanasia due to lack of space. Angels of Assisi quickly responded, ensuring all the puppies and their mother were vetted.
The Anatolian Shepherd/Hound mix puppies are now available for adoption. More information can be found on Angels of Assisi’s website.
In appreciation of community support, the puppies and their mother have been named after local landmarks and neighborhoods. The Anatolian Shepherd/Hound mix puppies are Grandin, Raleigh, Wasena, McAfee, Star, Marbleyard, and Big Lick. The Pit Bull/Terrier mixes (pictured with Moonshine, their mother), not yet available for adoption, are named Tinker, Cheesy Western, Carven, Elmwood, Smith (Mountain Lake), CI, Dr. Pepper, and their mother is Moonshine.
Check out the gallery to see all of the puppies, as well as Moonshine.
