Please please please
We are STILL looking for a foster-fospice angel for HYPER. We have been pleading for weeks. We are begging for a hero.
You see, Hyper's daddy lost his housing and sadly this sweet old girl ended up at the shelter. She is a gentle senior girl who has quickly captured the hearts of our staff and volunteers.
Despite being covered in tumors and other signs of serious medical issues, she remains incredibly sweet, loving, and full of quiet strength. Hyper doesn’t show signs of pain. She simply wants a calm, safe place to rest.
Hyper needs a fospice home (foster + hospice) where she can spend her golden days surrounded by love, soft blankets, and peace.
More than 20% of our shelter population are seniors, which is much higher than normal. These dogs have so much love left to give, and opening your home to one truly changes their story.
We would love to give her a quiet place to be while she is enjoying what time she has left. Hyper is currently at the Palmetto location and if you can help, PLEASE reach out to us or just go meet her. She would probably prefer to be the only pet BUT she was recently tested in playgroup and did ok, so she may be able to coexist with another older chill dog so if you have one bring them for a meet with her!
