Update 6/27/2023: Padme has been saved! Paws For Life Rescue has pulled Padme from the shelter and she will be available for adoption after undergoing a veterinary exam, bloodwork, and being spayed. Follower her rescuers on Facebook here.

Devore, CA – A dog described as “10 kinds of love,” is deteriorating behind the bars of her lonely kennel run at the San Bernardino County – Devore Shelter. The four-year-old dog, Padme, has been sitting in her stark run since early April, and the months of confinement have taken a toll.

Now, Padme is showing signs of kennel stress, and she has developed an upper respiratory infection – two things that put her at the top of the “euthanasia” list.

An advocate writes:

My heart is breaking for Padme. She’s been at the deadly Devore facility waiting for a Hero since April 6th, 2023. That’s exactly two months now.

Adding:

This poor girl is so sweet and lovable. Her cramped tiny cage is nowhere for any dog. In her video she paces with anxiety but calms down significantly when receiving back scratches and pets. Please keep sharing this precious girl for rescue.

The clock is ticking and time is not on Padme’s side. Please share her adoption information and help her find someone who can give her the life that she deserves.
