πβ€οΈ SAFE! Tagged by Paws N Hooves Colorado πβ€οΈ
Hello everyone! We have one extremely sweet pup at the La Junta shelter this week who needs out by Sunday, June 14! Transport for this guy is already arranged, please let us know if your rescue is able to help! Thank you all!! ππ»
*DISCLAIMER*
The La Junta & Rocky Ford shelters are holding facilities for police stations and DO NOT operate like city shelters. They do NOT allow adoptions due to city laws. Only approved PACFA501c3 rescues can pull dogs from these shelters. Our organization is set up to network the dogs in these shelters to ALREADY approved rescue groups and then coordinate the transportation. We are just volunteers who network the dogs in these shelters to get them more exposure. These shelters usually give each dog a Duramane 5 Max (DA2PP) vaccine, but that is all the vetting they receive. There are no vets on staff. We also coordinate transports each week (usually Saturday or Sunday) to the Denver area which is a 5-6 hour round trip drive β we just do the best we can, but we are so grateful to have all of you guys to help save these pups! THANK YOU RESCUES!
Skippy (~8 month old male, dog friendly) πΎ
Hi friends! I'm Skippy, named after my pure joy and excitement about life itself! I'm a super happy-go-lucky guy and my shelter mama says I am a total sweetheart! I know my energy may look a bit high in my pics and video π
but you have to remember, I'm just a puppy still, who is couped up in a kennel for most of the day here at the shelter π I'm definitely starting to go a bit stir-crazy, but I know that getting out of this place and into a foster home where I can get the enrichment I need each day will help so so much. Can you please help me get there?? π₯Ίππ»
