Can Anyone Save This Dog?

Can Anyone Save This Dog?

You might have heard of the Texas shelter that was raided by police recently, a number of gravely ill and unadoptable dogs were taken out, most to be euthanized. No one wants them.

The Friends Of Homeless Animals organization, the group that is treating and releasing the Boston Terrier Bud to me in October, has agreed to take this chihuahua – his name is Shep – on and get him very serious but treatable skin disease treated.

They say they couldn’t say no.

He has tested negative for heartworm, he is six months old and now weights five pounds. Carol Johnson of FOHA e-mailed me this photo. This is the first time I have ever posted a photo of a dog in urgent need of adopt on my blog. I want to see what happens.

Perhaps another way to do some good.

His eyes got to me and if no one else wants to take him, I might take her myself and look for a home for him. With Bud, I will have three dogs, that is enough. (FOHA has also accepted a second dog, who is 10 years old, has heartworm, and several other severe and chronic illnesses.)

I am working hard to help people who are vulnerable these days, I wish also to help some dogs who are the most vulnerable.

If you are interested in helping this dog, a heartbreaking scene, please contact the Friends Of Homeless Animals on their website, or e-mail Carol Johnson at [email protected]. Please let me know if you can help this dog, I am [email protected].
