Dutch is one of our family's two dogs.  This month is his 1st birthday, 
but he'll probably be put to sleep before the end of the day.

He's at the Williamson County Humane Society -- I took him there a
couple hours ago.  He needs a home where he can stay outdoors.  All of
our animals (dog, cat, guinea pig, lizards, ...) stay indoors -- Dutch
wants to stay indoors ... but Dutch eats upholstery.

He's great with kids (I have 3 under age 10), great with our other
pets, is house-broken, neutered, has all shots, obedience trained, and
is in perfect health -- but Dutch likes to eat upholstery.

I will pay his $64 release fee, and can even drive you out to meet him.

...don't hesitate, the Humane Society was crowded and said he could
be put to death today.

Dutch is prisoner# 1235, he's a nuetered male, 35 pound, black lab/chow
mix.

call me at work 512-838-8533 !

You're wondering why I don't keep him and put him up for adoption from 
my home ??  It's because my wife and kids would be traumatized by the
process.  There was a brief instant this morning, after he chewed the
sectional couch, where they could sort of understand why he couldn't be
one of our house pets.
