Here's what the humans have to say about me:
#maywepresenttoyouseries :::
Free Shavacado aka Wazza (FA Wazza) & a LOVE CLUSTER.
He’s deaf, he’s blind, he ain’t got no teeth, he has a tiiiiiiiny eye & he is one of a kind.
He is Geriatrical fantastical, sprinkled with a reeeee-diculous amount of awesomesauce.
FA Wazza - flourishing in the foster cluster of love program and is ready for his FOREVER HOME. He is ready to be ADOPTED.
Recap -*foster cluster(ers) dedicate 2-4 weeks in a cyclical fashion with 3 other families ..>>> ... it’s a big ol’ life changing, life saving, community, love fest
#FosterCluster collaboration of lovin’ <<<>>> ? We asked Kimberly (and Cliff) to talk about & share their experiences in the (new) foster cluster program. We think you will be mighty inspired.
Take it away KIM..>>>
“FA Wazza is doing great! He’s such a ?? love-bug... Yep, he’s senior, blind, deaf, toothless and has a tiiiiny eye, but that just makes him easy to love. He is potty trained, sleeps through the night, and eats anything you put in front of him. Fresh ? Wazza’s small eye is adorbs and so easy for one person to administer the daily eye gel. If we didn’t already have four rescues, we would become foster failures and adopt Wazza today.. #adoptme ?????? ///Fostering a dog is one of the most rewarding experiences of love YOU can have (other than adopting, of course)!
Two reasons to consider adopting a dog with special needs:
Reason 1: Your commitment to fostering a senior dog with special needs saves that dog’s life! If a shelter determines a dog is “unadoptable,” the shelter may make the determination to either euthanize or call upon a nonprofit animal rescue organization like Synergy that may have the resources to foster and/or offer hospice care to free up space in the overcrowded animal shelter. The shelter’s commitment in most cases is to make room for dogs that the shelter deems are adoptable. This is the most worthy cause of all to support in my humble and BIG-HEARTED opinion: to SAVE senior busted Nuggets’ lives! ???????
Reason 2: Adopting a dog after he or she has been abandoned for illness or injury, or from neglect/malnutrition allows the busted nugget to recover in a safe, stress-free, social-friendly, and loving environment while their minds, bodies, and souls mend. This reason alone makes you a SUPER HERO in a world that needs more love and kindness towards animals. ???
We cannot wait to hear from you!
