It's not uncommon to walk into a few establishments and find an old dog hanging out inside and trying to get belly rubs from all the customers. But there's one business, Mountain Paint, in Asheville, NC, that goes above and beyond the call of duty. You see, this paint store has started taking in shelter dogs, one by one, to live at the store in hopes of getting them adopted.
Right now they have Dexter, the second shelter dog brought in from Brother Wolf Animal Rescue, who was placed up for adoption after his owner moved into hospice care. Sadly, Dexter wasn't doing well in the shelter. He was experiencing rapid weight loss and suffering from chronic stress. So, the rescue facility brought Dexter to the paint store where he is already learning to relax and getting that much needed social interaction! Why bring him to the paint store? Because the first dog that stayed there under the staff's care lasted all but 28 hours before getting adopted! Unbelievable.
Enjoy, and please SHARE Dexter's story!
