Biggie Smalls
County ID A5171007
Somebody has stepped up for Biggie Smalls and the shelter is getting the paperwork done. Nothing is final until they walk out, so if this falls through Biggie Smalls comes straight back to the top of the list.
Biggie Smalls is a puppy fighting parvo in a shelter kennel. He's two months old and weighs less than three pounds, and what happens next depends entirely on whether a rescue with medical capacity steps up before tomorrow's deadline.

Everything here comes from Biggie Smalls’s Maricopa County Animal Care and Control record. We leave out the parts that belong between the shelter, the rescue and the vet, and we do not soften what a dog needs. If something changes at the shelter, this page changes with it.
