‼ URGENT UPDATE: LESS THAN 24 HOURS LEFT FOR FLORENCE ‼ Her time is up TOMORROW, SUNDAY 6/7. We do NOT want to leave her behind :( Please let us know if your PACFA approved rescue has room! Transport is already arranged for tomorrow!
Florence (~2 year old female, 63.4lbs, dog friendly)
Hey everyone! My name is Florence and I'm an incredibly sweet, and not to mention adorable, pup who's stuck here in doggy jail! I'm not too sure how I ended up in this scary place, but at least I've got a great shelter mama to keep me safe while I am here. I can be a bit of a shy gal to start, but I warm up almost instantly once I know I'm in good hands!! I'm super chill around other pups and would bet that an outgoing, friendly dog would really help me build my confidence, too. But all I really want is a family that I can love and protect (and maybe one that could protect my precious little soul a bit, too) each and every day. Can you please help me find them?
*DISCLAIMER*
The La Junta & Rocky Ford shelters are holding facilities for police stations and DO NOT operate like city shelters. They do NOT allow adoptions due to city laws. Only approved PACFA501c3 rescues can pull dogs from these shelters. Our organization is set up to network the dogs in these shelters to ALREADY approved rescue groups and then coordinate the transportation. We are just volunteers who network the dogs in these shelters to get them more exposure. These shelters usually give each dog a Duramane 5 Max (DA2PP) vaccine, but that is all the vetting they receive. There are no vets on staff. We also coordinate transports each week (usually Saturday or Sunday) to the Denver area which is a 5-6 hour round trip drive — we just do the best we can, but we are so grateful to have all of you guys to help save these pups! THANK YOU RESCUES!
