❗️ URGENT ❗️

Tater is in desperate need of a foster so he can heal.
Tater is the SWEETEST and most relaxed baby. There was an accident resulting in Tater’s fibula being broken, along with a major wound to his ear.

It is best if he does not go back to the shelter so he can heal the best way possible.

If you can foster this sweet boy- contact Elana Chapman at (727) 505-6941

🐾 LUCY 🐾

Lucy is a 7 year old, small breed, chihuahua mix. She is looking for her forever home!

Lucy is a special girl- she was brought in to the shelter after her owner passed away. She was raised with no other dogs or cats, by her elderly parents.

Lucy must be in a home with no other pets, kids, loud noises, many people coming in and out- she has been set in her ways since she can remember. With her owner passing away, her life turned upside down over night.

All she needs is love, patience and to be safe and happy.

If you are interested in taking Lucy into your home, please text/call Deidre at 229.319.3260
