Introducing... ALPHONSE THE MAGNIFICENT!
Step right up 🎟 to meet the best boy under big top! 🎪 You won`t believe it as this incredible canine defies nature right before your very eyes 👀 Is it his strength that sets him apart? 🏋️ His ability to walk the tightrope with just 3 legs? 😮 What about his ability to eat 26 hot dogs under a minute?
Well, maybe not quite any of those, but what about the fact that Alphonse has been at the shelter for 125 days without a single person interested in him? Not only that, but he has a knack for reading futures and has identified the 3 misfortunes that are making it difficult to find the right circus 🔮
THE 3 MISFORTUNES
1) Alphonse is black, one of the last colors of dog to be adopted
2) Alphonse was suffering from a gunshot wound to his front leg causing a permanent limp
3) Alphonse came to the shelter with heartworms
Despite the 3 misfortunes , Alphonse still puts on a toothy grin 😁 and his best ring leader hat 🎩 to makes sure the show goes on. He is a friendly, easy going 6 year old lab mix. He can often be found trotting on his 3 good legs making sure everyone has gotten a chance to give him pets while they wait in line 👋, snacking on popcorn during his breaks 🍿, and soaking up all the attention he can.
Alphonse the Magnificent has now completed his heartworm treatment and we are happy to report he is heartworm FREE and ready for his next adventure – a forever home!! Contact the shelter at 816-271-5363 to set up a meet and greet with Alphonse!
