Flying Houndz Family's Featured Rescue
Turk
Turk, aka, Turkey was a frightened, abused dog found on Thanksgiving night in a bush, shaking and scared with his collar embedded in his throat. He was taken to a vet for surgery to remove the collar then to a shelter. Due to early life trauma, Turk was scared of people which labeled him as non-adoptable. Jeff received a call from the shelter then drove right away to take him home. Jeff realized he may never perform, but he would be a star in his family and made the decision to keep him providing a safe home filled with love!
Turk has given Jeff, his canine family, and many others inspiration and meaning to the phrase “love is unconditional”. If only all humans would love unconditionally then there wouldn’t be as many Turks out there to save. Sadly some people are selfish, creating a family then leaving them behind.
Turk wishes everyone understood the real meaning of love, especially Misty! To those Turk says “A dog is the only thing on earth that loves you more than he loves himself”!
Turkey is the Flying Houndz Frizbee Trick Dog Show’s ambassador to shelter dogs in need of rescue. Once scared and shy to now happy and confident, you’ll now find Turk as he prances with joy through our audiences prior to show time greeting folks, creating smiles and giving love to all!
