8 Year Old Pooch Needs A New Home As His Owner Is Ill - So Sad

I have a patient that unfortunately has a very aggressive metastatic cancer and despite our treatment attempts, is not responding favorably.  There is a good chance that he will not be around in the upcoming month.  He had an appointment with me today but did not feel well enough to attend his appointment and rather than cancelling the appointment, asked his sister to come on his behalf.   During my discussion with her, I asked about his dog and the family's plans for him and shockingly learned that Grinder, my patient's 8 yo pitbull/bull dog companion (so named because when he was a puppy, he liked to dance to Elvis music), would be euthanized once my patient passes.

As a result, I am asking for your help in circulating this information around.  I am hoping there is someone out there who can and will be willing to step forward to help Grinder out.

I personally have not met Grinder but the stories I hear about this dog are absolutely wonderful and it would be such a tremendous disgrace to the human race to allow such a loyal and perfectly healthy companion to be euthanized.  I was not able to get any pictures but I've been told the dog is beautiful and weighs approximately 50 lbs and is wonderful with people.
