82 - yes EIGHTY-TWO - IS THE NUMBER OF UNWANTED PUPPIES Pet Adoptions of Cuero has had to turn away this week. Caller after caller after caller has 6 pups, 3 pups, 11 pups, 4 pups etc. that they 'DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO WITH". Every call starts with "I have called every shelter/rescue in the state and no one has any openings" - we are at PUPPY CRISIS times 10! Please spread the word to the general public - there is no way out of this overwhelming unwanted pet situation. You have a pet, you have an un-FIXED pet? Then you are going to add to this sad sickening situation. Pet Adoptions of Cuero currently has 15 that are bona fide "puppies" in our inventory but we also have 25 teen, adult and senior dogs that need and want forever homes. Besides all the "puppy calls" we have dozens and dozens of "I don't have time for my pet anymore" - that we have had for 4 or more years!!!! We have "adoption" in the name of our organization but it appears we have become just a "resident" hall for some beautiful loving pets that folks have discarded like trash. We need adopters and fosters and anyone who wants to step up and offer one or two of our fur babes a second loving chance. Please share this post and maybe come by and see one or two of our PAOC cuties that will tug at your heartstrings - and know that you can give it a real forever home. We stay open 7 days a week so we are ready when you are to visit. Pet Adoptions of Cuero, 407 US Highway 183 South, Cuero - open every day from 8 am till 12 noon or call for a late afternoon adoption visit: 361-243-8540 - if you can't adopt then please, please spay or neuter your pet and microchip it too!
