🚨‼️URGENT‼️🚨 Fosters needed!

We have three adorable 8-week old puppies who arrived at that have ringworm.

We need foster assistance to help us with providing some extra TLC - which includes their medication, keeping them isolated and providing safe interaction that is critical for their age.

They can all go together or if you can only take one let us know! Slide into our DM’s if you can help! This is cross posted and we will answer messages ASAP!

Thank you!
