Well, the senior-dog surrenders are the hardest to take --

-- the pups look so content and settled, but are unable to settle, for reasons beyond them --

-- here's Cisco's story --

His momma writes:

"Cisco means a lot to me, he has been with me since he was five weeks old he will be five years old in October of this year. He is very spoiled, he likes to sleep in a bed (under  the covers) with me, he is good with people but not animals only the one he was raised with. I would like him to go with someone who will treat him good and treat him the way that I do. "

She continues --

"I wish that I could keep him but I can't since the landlord is selling the house I lived in for 11 years. I hope that you really do understand that I love my dog very much and it breaks my heart to give him away but I have no choice since I can't find anything that excepts dogs especially a Pitt."
