In the year 2000, the historical epic Gladiator arrived in theaters and became a critical and commercial success. The story followed general turned warrior Maximus Meridius (Russell Crowe), who ends up seeking revenge on the Roman emperor responsible for his family’s demise. The movie was intended to be a summer blockbuster, but surprised many by staying in theaters for nearly a year and winning Academy Awards for Best Picture and Best Actor.

Nala and Red are the best of buds. They are both fixed as they were going to be adopted together but unfortunately their possible adopter never showed. Nala is black and white and 8 years old and Red is white and tan and 7 years old.

They are both very sweet and love to lay in the sun and relax. They are bonded and are in desperate need of a loving and responsible home for adoption, even a foster as these babies are on the McKinley County Humane Society’s euthasia list and they are desperately trying to give them a second chance.

The shelter is giving them away at a special rate of $90 for both of them. They are good with other dogs and would make amazing ranch dogs.

Anyone...
