Please read and share this story with everyone you know in the hopes of saving the life of a special dog.  He has never had a home of his own.  I would love to take him, but I already have pets and he needs to be in a home without other animals.

Special Needs Dog in Florida Will Die If Not Adopted

06/09/2016 Posted by Amy Drew

Joey has had many fosters, but never a home of his own.

As a puppy, he was shelter-dumped by his first adoptive family for having too much energy. Staffers there warned the owners that euthanization was a distinct possibility.

That same day, rescue group Destiny for Dogs was on site.

“Their response was, ‘We don’t care!’” the organization’s JoAnn Goodrich told us. They immediately took Joey in as one of their own.

It would seem then and there that the tide had turned for Joey, but over time, Joey endured multiple adoption failures and, subsequently, multiple foster home rotations.

One adoption came close, said Goodrich.

“He seemed to be adjusting well. She loved Joey and took him everywhere with her…” Sadly that included a store where she left him in a hot car with the windows closed, then got arrested for shoplifting. “Luckily, the police found Joey in time and he was returned to Destiny.”

Over time it became clear that Joey needed professional help.
