Foster home needed for Tinkerbell
Monday, September 17 2012
by Marti Hohmann CPDT-KA Tinkerbell, a beautiful spayed and housetrained adult Hound mix, is being treated for possible ringworm at Animal Care & Control. They have a great foster home lined up for when her skin issue clears up, but nowhere to put her until then. The clinic staff is pressuring the adoption folks to make a decision. Someone with a barn area or separate kennel would work well.
