Notes from Animal Rescue Fund of MS

Update: Sweetheart Nate is still waiting on his forever home! We'd say he's retired from football these days & enjoys living the chill life. He enjoys walks outside and is calm, cool, and collected. He'd be a great relaxing companion!

When he first came to us: Since the Patriots won the Super Bowl we have for you.... from the Patriots starting lineup: Nate! This handsome fellow shares a name with the Pats starting LT, Nate Solder. Like Mr. Solder, our little Nate is an amazing athlete! He loves to sprint and jump around - this is one athletic dog. He'd be perfect for an active family, but will need plenty of human interaction and a secure fence in his backyard. Our Nate tips the scales at a manageable 50 lbs., well shy of Mr. Solder's 320 lbs... but his loving heart is just the same size! Nate was found on Holly Bush Road 2011, the same year of Mr. Solder's rookie season in the NFL. It seems hard to believe that it's been nearly 4 years (I'm sure Mr. Solder would agree) but it's time to find our sweet Nate a home. If this adorable, energetic fellow seems like your type - or if you're a diehard Pats fan - be sure to share his profile.
