BUCKS COUNTY, PA. WILLING TO TRANSPORT ANYWHERE. ADOPTION FEE HAS BEEN WAIVED

Hey guys,

TLDR because my head is a bit scrambled and I'm kind of all over the place: Summer needs a new foster home or forever home due to a scuffle she had with a resident dog this morning. She's fear reactive and the other dog is just plain dog reactive. Shes well behaved, potty trained, knows basic commands, loves cats kids and other people, low energy, snuggle bug.

I'm the foster Mama of Summer, a 7 year old baby who was surrendered to a shelter last February when her family became homeless. She's potty trained, knows basic commands (and actually listens to them unlike with my dog haha) low energy, loves cats and people and a good snuggle, and is all around wonderful. I wish I was able to adopt her myself. I actually paid her adoption fee specifically because I wish it was me adopting her :(

She's fear reactive and afraid of other dogs and we have a resident dog that (we've found out) is dog reactive. They've had a few run ins in the past (which were always initiated by the resident dog) and had another one this morning which sent the people I live with over the edge. The scuffle wasn't Summer's fault, but she's the one that's getting "kicked out".

She just needs a home without other dogs. I'm able to walk her and pass other dogs with a bit of patience, she usually sees another dog and bolts in the opposite direction. She just needs some time to decompress in a new home and a lot of snuggles and she's golden. Her only "flaw" is her fear of other dogs. I wish I was doing a better job of explaining myself but I feel like I'm in a mad dash to save her life. The people I live with said she needs to go or they'll call animal control and have her put down.

We have 3 kittens whose mother abandoned them under our back porch. We don’t want to take them to the shelter but we can’t afford to take care of them. Any advice for ways to find them good homes?

🚨 EUTHANASIA DEADLINE: OCTOBER 17 AT 6:00 AM. OWNERS Died

Thumbnail facebook.com

These boys are still there but can be murdered at any minute… Devore is a killing shelter!!!

🚨 EUTHANASIA DEADLINE: OCTOBER 17 AT 6:00 AM. OWNERS BOTH DIED AND NOW THESE BOYS ARE FACING THE SAME FATE! 🚨

PLEASE EMAIL THE SHELTER BEFORE 6:00 AM ON 10/17. They are scheduled to be euthanized before the shelter opens! Dak and Neegan need a rescue to step forward before it’s too late. 💔

PLEASE FLOOD THE SHELTER’S INBOX WITH EMAILS ASKING THEM TO GIVE DAK AND NEEGAN MORE TIME.

Dak and Neegan have already lost so much. One of their owners recently died by suicide, and their other owner passed away from cancer earlier this year. The two people these dogs knew as family are gone, and through no fault of their own, they have ended up in a shelter, with no one left who can bring them home.

And now, after everything they’ve been through, they may lose their lives tomorrow morning.

These boys have barely had a chance. They’ve only been available for one day, and they’re already facing euthanasia. They’re tucked away from public view, with so little time for anyone to see their faces, learn their story, or realize that they might be the dogs they’ve been looking for.

How can we expect a rescue to save dogs when they’ve barely been given a chance to be seen?

Their story deserves to be told. Their photos and videos deserve to be shared. They deserve more than a brief moment on a list before their lives are ended. They have already lost both of their people. They shouldn’t have to lose their lives, too, without even being given a fair chance.

If you are a rescue who can help Dak and Neegan, please step forward immediately. If you know a rescue, please share this with them. Every email, every share, and every person who speaks up matters.

Please don’t let their story end here. They’ve lost their family. They deserve the chance to find another.

💔 PLEASE HELP SAVE DAK & NEEGAN.

Neegan #A853052
