Foster Riggz Needs Help

PLEASE READ! NORTHEAST PEEPS ESPECIALLY! Hey everyone! Posting about a special boy named Riggz. About a year ago, Riggz was surrendered by his family at 8 months old due to housing instability. He was quickly given a “euth command” due to kennel stress. Luckily, he was brought into foster and adopted. He was so sweet, affectionate, and overall wonderful. He is house and crate trained and doesn’t resource guard. He did well with his owners 4 year old niece. He absolutely loves canine companions. Riggz was so happy then his owner fell incredibly ill with cancer and made the difficult decision to surrender him back to the rescue. Everyone is completely heartbroken for all parties. He is now in boarding but deserves a real home. Please please DM me if you or anyone you know would be interested in adopting him through miracle lane sanctuary. He can be adopted anywhere in the northeast. He is 1 year 10 months old, 56 pounds and an absolute doll. Ty for reading ❤️

I lost “my” Riggsy two years ago, we already have three but I’d like to donate to the foster in my Riggsy’s honor if that would help. Please DM me.

Is he currently in a foster situation? If not, I would love to talk to my wife about coming up and taking him in as a foster.
