I was at the Downey Shelter this past Saturday taking photos of the homeless pups and this particular baby broke my heart. Willie is a young, shy homeless mutt who has a very noticeable overbite, that looks painful. I have never seen anything like it. Although he is eating and drinking normally, I can't imagine such a large overbite feels good :( We all have cosmetic defaults, whether some are obvious or not, but Willie seemed sad and nervous- maybe due to his condition. I want to help him. I wish I had more resources to help these babies, especially the special needs ones. Thank dog for Facebook and it's ability to share a dogs photos and save their lives. I will hope Facebook comes through for Willie, he deserves it!
A4628147 Willie is a heart-stealing five month old brown male Labrador Retriever mix puppy who was deserted at the Downey Shelter on September 4th. Weighing sixteen pounds, this precious pup walks okay on leash and will benefit from formal training. He is mild-mannered, gets along fine with other dogs and we think he will make an amazing pet for children. He has a noticeable overbite but it has not affected his being able to eat and take in nutrition. Willie is our “gorgeous guy” and will make a super indoor pet for an individual or family living in a private home or for the first time pet owner.
