“Jordan was in horrible shape when he came to the shelter. His mats were so severe, he needed to be anesthetized before we could remove them. After a lot of TLC and patient grooming, he transitioned into a handsome little man.”

Livy was a breeding dog, kept outside and used only to make her owner money. After being taken to a shelter, she beat death when TAF (Trio Animal Foundation) rescued her the day before she was euthanized. Now, she has a loving new mom whom she can shower with kisses.

Hippo was found at an open access shelter when she was just 12 weeks old. Her ears had been cut off, and she had a secondary skin infection, an upper respiratory infection and a fungal infection. But after months of antibiotics, medicated dips, fungal and pain medications, Hippo has made a full recovery and has already found her forever home.
