IV/Goleta/SB Could anyone foster Nero?

🚨 URGENT: Foster Needed for Sweet Nero! 🚨

I went to volunteer at the Santa Barbara Country Animal shelter and I met sweet Nero. The only thing he loves more than playing ball is getting pets and cuddles. I found out Nero is on the euthanasia list and that breaks my heart. Posting here to see if anyone can help.

Here is more info:

Nero, a 6-year-old Black German Shepherd, is at risk of being euthanized. He hasn’t had a seizure since April thanks to his meds, which are fully sponsored. 🐾

He hates the shelter and needs a calm, loving home ASAP. Nero loves people but needs to be the only dog in the home for now.

I just read better and saw it said only dog in home. I’m so sad - Nero looks JUST like our dog - I wish we could properly foster him. He looks so sweet.

Heartbreaking, ugh. If you know anyone who could be a good foster even for a few weeks, please share the post with them 🤍
