2.00 min. | 3.66 user rating		 Phone 256-381-4073 now to adopt a homeless dog of cat. Thank you! Note: Romeo and Juliet were adopted within 72 hours after this video was posted! I would like to thank everyone who helped! Original posting: Help save Romeo & Juliet, two loving dogs that may be put down if homes are not found for them immediately. Officer Price of the Colbert County Animal Control in Tuscumbia, Alabama, said that two German Shepherds, which I've dubbed Romeo and Juliet, are in need of immediate homes. These dogs were originally picked up in the city together and have been spayed and neutered. If responsible guardians are not found for the two adorable German Shepherds they will likely be put down. They may be killed as early as Tuesday, Feb. 26 or shortly there after. Officer Price said that the Colbert County Animal Control simply, "does not have the space to keep these two dogs," alive. Of course every effort is being made by Officer Price and the Colbert County Animal Control to find responsible guardians for these two dogs which is why I'm making this video, to help in that effort!. I'm asking everyone to help save Romeo and Juliet. Do not let animal control destroy these dogs! German Shepherds make great family pets and great life long companions. It will be terrible to destroy these dogs when out there somewhere there is someone who needs a life companion! Please call the Colbert County Animal Control at 1-256-381-4073. Volunteer to adopt these dogs and/or help maintain the dogs <b>...</b>

Original post: Romeo and Juliet, two German Shepherds, are in need of responsible guardians. Please help save Romeo & Juliet, two lovable German Shepherd dogs that may be put down soon if they are not adopted. I nicknamed these two great dogs Romeo and Juliet because they were picked up together by animal control in Tuscumbia, Alabama. German Shepherds are very loyal, intelligent and trainable dogs. Romeo and Juliet have already been spade and neutered. They will make great companion dogs for a responsible guardian who has a fenced yard. Please call 256-381-4073 to adopt Romeo and Juliet. That's 256-381-4073 to adopt Romeo and Juliet or help support these lovable dogs until they can be adopted. Thank you!
