Luke's Story

Luke has had a tough start at life.<br/>He ended up on the euthanasia list simply due to length of stay and was rescued and adopted out shortly thereafter.<br/><br/>However, his story didn't end there. His adoptive family dumped him in another shelter, and the rescue was notified thanks to the microchip. We are trying to find him a safe place but the preliminary findings confirm that he's 30+lbs overweight now at ~100lbs!<br/><br/>He desperately needs a safe environment where he can thrive and get healthy again. He is neutered and up to date on vaccinations. He got along with dogs and kids at his first foster home, and we anticipate the same now.
