  3. Sooo sad. Prayers that shelter did the right thing and got this little one the help he needs and deserves at an emergency veterinary hospital. He deserves every chance possible.

  6. Why wait for the rescues do you not have animal hospitals? Get tjis dog to an animal centre asap. He may be suffering. Waiting should not be an option because you want somebody to pay the bill. Makes me mad.? I’d that’s the only way he can get vet treatment in the US. Then I hope some guardian angel.cam come along and adopt/ foster him to recuperate. ???

  7. I messaged several rescues in reference to this baby… Second Chance Rescue just replied stating Pugsley was pulled by another rescue..♥️♥️???

  8. wish we could find out which rescue and get an update on him. Glad he is out, i hope he will be okay. Paws crossed.

  9. Rather than actually treat this dog they shove him in a cage, take his picture, post it & let EVERYONE ELSE sort it out. That’s a CARE center? What a completely disgusting uncompassionate shit show this hell hole is. The Administration should be charge with negligence.

  10. Poor Pugsley!!! Anybody with. rains knows a hurt animal should go straight to the Vet then contact Rescues. This place where our tax dollars go doesn’t have the knowledge or Medical Trauma doctors on staff to help our innocent babies when serious accidents happen. If not helped w/ in an hour the staff should have rushed him to an Animal hospital n paid the bill w/ our taxes – money talks to these workers – I could cry for Pugsley n No Update!! ANIMAL CRUELTY again just like Walnut left to suffer!

  12. why is not this dog at a animal hospital instead of the hell hole called nyc acc
