Helene dog ADOPTED!! And this is how he feels about it. 💙 Pic of Ronnie and his new mama in top comment.
Ronnie’s story:
…
Rescued during the flooding from Helene. It’s been almost a year and nobody has chosen Ronnie. 😢 He was in the Unicoi County Animal Shelter when the river started rising. Thankfully he was saved and ended up at Robinson Animal Hospital, along with several other dogs. The others dogs have either been adopted or are at The Animal Shelter of Sullivan County.
Ronnie is waiting for his forever family at the Elizabethton/Carter County Animal Shelter
in Elizabethton, TN. 🏡 He’s a wonderful dog once he gets to know you! He loves to go for walks and does well on a leash. 🐾 Elizabethton/Carter County Animal Shelter 🥰🥰

He’s a giant baby who can’t wait to climb into your lap and cuddle. I’m in love with Mr. Brutus. 💙 What a snuggle bunny!!

🥰 He will literally entangle himself with you, and he’s always game to spoon.
He was taken out of a bad home situation, yet he’s still so loving and loyal. He just needs a human who will return that affection.

Reach out to the Unicoi County Animal Shelter
in Erwin, TN to apply to for the position of Brutus’s full-time cuddler.

Hey Everyone!
We were so happy to get to see Creek this weekend out at Tractor Supply. His amputation is doing great and he's getting around like a champ. His foster family is so in love with him! He's truly the best boy.

Now to the news, he is doing well and stable however the kidney we were concerned with is worse than before. The Doctors in charge of his care are recommending he have a second surgery now to remove the kidney that is no longer functioning. The kidney is currently filled with urine and the concern is that it may begin to leak. We were able to raise most of his surgery costs before and now need help to make sure this surgery can happen. Please donate and share if you can to help us save Creek!
