My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Me and my three brothers were abandoned in rural Jackson County during the hottest week of the year. Animal control picked us up even though he had nowhere to take us, but he couldn't just leave us in the extreme heat. The nice man that picked us up drove us to a big noisy building where we could hear a lot of barking. We were so excited but also very nervous. Two very nice ladies came out and looked at us and we could hear a lot of talking but didn't know what was going on. What happened next changed our lives! These nice people, despite being extremely full, took us out of the big truck and held us. We were put in a big space together, so we weren't scared. They have told us that they will help find us our very own families. I think for now they are my family. If you would like to give a pup like me a chance, please apply at www.stfrancis-care.org/adopt.
