Deaf Dog Must Be Adopted Now to Save Him!

Bip, deaf dog with black mask like face with white around him (kind of like a thief look)

Deadline @Sept 2, 2022 or so

I’M PUTTING OUT ONE LAST PLEA FOR A FOSTER OR ADOPTER FOR BIP. THE FOSTERS ARE UNABLE TO KEEP HIM MUCH LONGER. PLEASE BIP’S ANGEL SHOW UP FOR HIM We have approximately 10 days left! His adoption fee is waived!

10 days ago we posted about Bip being in foster for 2 years! Still not one application for this amazing boy. Please keep sharing Bip! He deserves a forever family too

2 YEARS IN FOSTER WHEN DOES BIP GET A FOREVER FAMILY???

Beautiful Bip is now 5 years old and has been with our rescue since 2020 ( he was adopted but returned due another human letting him down). This sweetheart is a mixed breed pup and is deaf. His current fosters have been extremely wonderful by taking him into their home and caring for him the majority of those two years. They have also paid out of their own pockets for a trainer. Being deaf and being 60lbs, we ask the potential adopters have no other MALE DOGS/ CATS or small children in the home. He’s not high energy but would do best with a fenced yard just for extra space. We really need to get Bip to his own forever home. Please apply to adopt at hindeanimalsafehaven.org

Editor’s Note: Lima PA is in southern Delaware County: https://tinyurl.com/mr3vuwkm
