A chance meeting in the aisle of Rural King had one of our board members petting the puppies in the box. Once she heard their story she knew we had to help. A Good Samaritan steps in to take four puppies from a very bad situation with no idea what they will do with 4 puppies but knew they couldn’t stay where they were. We have set them up with food, toys, collars and their first vet appointment is Monday. They are 10 weeks old. 4 puppies is a lot for one person to manage, this family desperately needs some help. We need puppy fosters, ASAP. Fosters need to live in Central or SE Ohio so we can complete their vetting. There has been zero veterinary care for these babes, so other pets in your home must be current on vaccines for their protection and spay/neutered. The link to foster is in the comments. Please, please share so we can get these pups placed quickly. ... See MoreSee Less

Update on ClaudeUnfortunately, 612 shares did nothing to garner interest in this old sweet boy. How is that nobody is interested in adopting or fostering a low key senior dog?!?!? He’s good with other dogs but would not appreciate an energetic hyper dog. He’s good with kids, but no cats. This guy has beat the odds and came back from near death. Since we had zero interest we’ve had to place Claude in a boarding kennel. This is no place for an old dog, he wants a human with a soft sofa to snuggle on. We are thankful for Turning Tails Pet Company for taking in this homeless dog. Please, please share for Claude. ... See MoreSee Less
