Good morning, community ❤️
This is Shaggy
Every time you stop petting him, he gently taps your hand asking for more…because all he wants is love. And right now, he’s stuck in a kennel surrounded by constant barking, with no one to give him the attention he craves as often as he needs and deserves it.
Shaggy is such a sweet, affectionate boy, but the shelter environment is starting to wear on him. We’re seeing his frustration grow, and we don’t want to watch that loving, gentle personality fade. He doesn’t need much, just a quiet place, a soft spot to lay, and someone to give him the affection he’s begging for.
As a foster through AGC, we provide everything you need. Food, supplies, medical care, training support, you're never doing this alone.
Please, if you can give Shaggy a break from the shelter, call us at 319-280-7035 and leave a voicemail, or email [email protected]. The foster application is linked in the comments. And please don't be afraid to reach out and ask us any questions you may have.
If you can’t foster, sharing this could change his life. This is truly urgent. We don't want to see his light dim from stress and sadness. We are doing everything we can for him, but he needs more than a shelter can provide.
Thank you for all your support!
