09/18/2016 PET PROFILE MEMO
09/18/16 20:13 Majesty is a 13 year old pit bull. She was reported to be friendly around people, and will let the three children she lived with throughout their lives (oldest is now 13) play with her and ride her. She was friendly around the two other dogs she grew up with, but would snap at dogs on the street and at cats. Majesty is a DOH bite victim. Majesty would let owner take away food, toys, and treats. She enjoyed baths and would allow for holding. She eats wet and dry food, loves pizza, and is used to being taken on leashed walks 2-3 times a day. She loves to run on walks
09/30/2016 WEB MEMO
A volunteer writes: Her Majesty is easy to miss at first–she’s curled up in a ball at the back of her cage, very quiet and clearly not happy about all the noise! But when I put her leash on, she’s eager to go outside and get a bit of fresh air. She pulls a bit on the leash, but once we’re outside she calms down, and it seems as if she was just looking for a break from the loudness and excitement of the care center. On our walk, Majesty sneaks a look up at me occasionally, but is generally shy and hesitant about her surroundings. This sweet lady likely isn’t used to being in a shelter, and could use a calm and quiet space to relax in–please come and see her today, and perhaps you can be the one to give her a home to live out her golden years in.
