Meet The Anipals

Meet Billy...

Jethro's Anipal Sanctuary, Inc. welcomes Billy!!! Billy comes from the Mobile Alabama shelter when they broke a dog fighting ring and took in dozens of dogs. Billy was to be put to sleep to make room for these dogs. Thankfully the shelter called Andrea and she answered the call for help, as she always does. Billy is a chocolate dachshund, with a wild look about him. He is intact, so neutering will take place very soon.

Billy was taken to the shelter because his family was moving and couldn't take him. Or wouldn't?... He was at the shelter for several days and was severely depressed, not eating anything and shaking non-stop. He is guessed to be 5 years old and weighs approximately 11 pounds.

Once Billy has time to gain his confidence back and to feel comfortable in being loved, he will be evaluated and possibly be available for adoption.

In the meantime, he has been welcomed into the Sanctuary by the Anipals and is settling in nicely. We hope to very quickly see the crazed look in his eye soften and trust take its place!

Meet Jaxon...

Jethro's Anipal Sanctuary, Inc. also welcomes Jaxon! Jaxon was also rescued from the shelter in Mobile Alabama for the same reason as Billy. He is a black and tan dachshund, around 5 years old and approximately 11 pounds. He was left at the shelter because he had allergies. The vet couldn't figure out what his allergies were a result of, and his people were tired of paying the vet bills. He, like Billy, was going to be put to sleep.

He is a scared little boy, but is warming up with the help of the welcoming Anipals and their mom, Andrea.

Like Billy, we will give Jaxon some time to settle in, gain some confidence and trust, and then evaluate him to see if adoption is an option for him.

Meet Pongo and Perdita...

Meet Sigmund...

Siggy for short! Siggy was originally adopted from a shelter, and had a very bad reaction to the man of the house. Raised voices put him in a state of absolute terror. He was adopted to a new home with a baby. The toddler grabbed Siggy while he was sleeping and he bit the baby. The skin was broken, and animal control was called to put Siggy to sleep. Gulf Coast Dachshund Rescue intervened and Siggy came to Andrea in Mississippi to join the Sanctuary Anipals. Welcome Sigmund!!!!!
