💔 Taz is scared, and you can see it in his eyes. Found roaming the streets alone, this sweet 2-year-old now spends his days trembling in a shelter kennel, unsure of what comes next. He doesn't bark for attention or beg to be noticed. He simply sits quietly, hoping someone will give him a chance. 🥺 When his kennel door opened, Taz didn't try to run. He just sat there shaking, trying to understand why he was there. Taz needs a foster or adopter before shelter stress takes a bigger toll on him. Fostering is FREE, and all supplies are provided. 🐾 TAZ #A185188 • 2 years old • Male • Vaccinated • 36 lbs 📍 Pasadena Animal Shelter 5150 Burke Rd, Pasadena, TX 📩 Adoptions: adoptions@pasadenatx.gov 📩 Foster/Rescue: foster-rescue@pasadenatx.gov Please share and help Taz find the safe, loving home he deserves. ❤️ #AdoptDontShop

🚨Choose Your Pet Sitters Carefully From Nina Hagle of Dallas Texas... “This horrible ABUSIVE dog sitter named SYDNEE BENSON was screaming and verbally abusing my senior dogs. We thought we could trust her but we finally rolled back video footage from our security cameras and saw this. She has been screaming at my dogs for over a year and who knows what other kind of mental abuse on my poor dogs. My 13-year-old Yorkie had severe anxiety and colitis. My house had dog feces in my living room. Everywhere. Urine in my house. Food stains on my sofa. My kitchen was a pigsty. My neighbor referred her. And my neighbor and I are good friends. So, I assumed she was good. We thought she was. But we are heartbroken for our senior dogs going through this. My Yorkie had severe colitis from Anxiety two weeks ago and needed to be admitted at the vet for IV fluids from the diarrhea that the colitis caused from the anxiety.” DO NOT HIRE THIS PERSON.

While retrieving #SaveHachi, the treatment he received was completely unacceptable. Omar with the Rosenberg shelter refused to allow LaDonna inside the kennel to properly leash her own dog, making an already stressful situation even worse. In the video, he can be seen pushing the kennel door against Hachi’s neck, behavior that appears to provoke a reaction rather than safely handle the situation. This is not how animals or their owners should be treated. The public deserves answers. 🐾 City of Rosenberg

Y’all I am full on ugly crying right now. From X alone nearly $1,700 has already been pledged to help save Nell and her puppies. I am beyond grateful to be surrounded even virtually by such generous compassionate people who share this deep love for animals. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. 💜🐾 I’ll update as soon as we secure a rescue and will share a freedom photo and donation link once one is found.

#SaveSnuggles Update I'll be spending much of today working behind the scenes to bring media attention to Snuggles' story. One thing I want supporters to understand is that a lot of advocacy work doesn't happen on social media. While posts and shares are VERY IMPORTANT, there are also phone calls, emails, media outreach, interviews, press materials, conversations with reporters, and other efforts happening behind the scenes that most people never see. For those who are just learning about Snuggles: Snuggles is a 2-year-old livestock guardian dog belonging to a military veteran and his family in Tucson, Arizona. He lives with his mom, dad, and two young boys who love him dearly. Following a first-time bite incident on his own property, Snuggles was taken from his family and has now spent nearly 8 months in a shelter. His family has been charged more than $15,000 in boarding fees while fighting to save him. The bite victim was the children's grandmother, and she is actively supporting Snuggles and asking that he be returned home. Despite all of this, Snuggles is facing a court ordered euthanasia. Today I'm asking everyone following this page to do just ONE thing. Please make one phone call or send one email to Steve Kozachik, Director of Pima Animal Care Center. Be respectful. Be professional. Let him know people across the country are paying attention to Snuggles' case and asking for compassion, transparency, and alternatives to euthanasia. 📞 (520) 724-5900 📧 steve.kozachik@pima.gov If hundreds of people take two minutes out of their day, it can make a difference. The video attached to this post is especially difficult to watch. You'll see Snuggles' two boys singing a song for their "Sergeant Snuggles." While many people see a court case, these boys see their best friend. Thank you to everyone who is standing with this family and helping us fight to bring Snuggles home. #SaveSnuggles

This video broke me. Snuggles’ family showed up at the shelter with birthday cake from one of Snuggles’ dog brothers party, hoping Snuggles could at least celebrate from afar after almost 8 MONTHS locked away from everyone he loves. In this video you will see: • his mom • his two young boys • and even the children’s grandmother, who was the bite victim and is STILL fighting to save him You can hear the pain in Snuggles’ mom’s voice. The tears. The heartbreak. A mother desperately trying to find out how her dog is doing after nearly 8 months of separation while her children stand beside her missing their best friend. They were not allowed to see Snuggles. They were not given updates on his health or condition. Imagine being separated from your dog for almost 8 MONTHS with no hugs, no cuddles, no visits, no reassurance, and no idea how he’s doing. This family is heartbroken, and two little boys are missing their protector and best friend. Please watch. Please share. Please help us fight for Snuggles. 📞 Pima Animal Care Center (520) 724-5900 ‼️ Steve Kozachik, Director of PACC 📧 [email protected] ‼️ Chad Kasmar, Deputy County Administrator 📞 (520) 724-7733 📧 [email protected] Please ask for compassionate treatment, transparency regarding Snuggles’ wellbeing, and consideration of alternatives to euthanasia. Please remain respectful. #SaveSnuggles KVOA News 4 Tucson KGUN 9 KOLDNews Arizona Daily Star

#SAVESNUGGLES UPDATE On June 8, Pima Animal Care Center released a public statement regarding the #SaveSnuggles case that contained several FALSE claims. Today, I am going to address one of them. 🚨 THE CLAIM: GRANDMA IS SCARED OF SNUGGLES AND DOES NOT WANT HIM TO RETURN HOME. Steve Kozachik, Director of Pima Animal Care Center, stated that those of us advocating for Snuggles are spreading a false narrative when we say the grandmother, who was the bite victim, wants Snuggles returned home. Well, let’s look at the facts. Shall we? The first video clip attached to this post was published on May 24. In that video, the grandmother publicly pleads for Snuggles' life and asks that he be returned home. The second video clip was published on May 27. In that video, the grandmother joins her daughter and grandchildren as they bring birthday cake to Pima Animal Care Center so Snuggles can celebrate his dog brother's birthday. PACC would not allow the family to visit Snuggles. But the grandmother still showed up. In the video, she can be seen leaving #SaveSnuggles flyers…advocating for his release. Those are not my words. Those are her actions. Today, I am not asking anyone to take my word for it. I am asking you to watch the videos and listen to the grandmother herself. If the grandmother truly does not want Snuggles home... Why has she spent months advocating for him? Why is she handing out #SaveSnuggles flyers? Why is she showing up at the shelter? Why is she publicly asking that he be spared? Why is she standing beside her daughter and grandchildren in the fight to bring him home? Watch the videos. Then decide for yourself. #SaveSnuggles District1-Supervisor Rex Scott Dr. Matt Heinz Jennifer Evancho KVOA News 4 Tucson KGUN 9 KOLDNews Arizona Daily Star
