Update--River



River, the pit bull girl with the deformed leg, had finally found a home with an older couple during an adoption event at Petsense in Ponca City.

Sadly, because of circumstances beyond anyone's control, River had to be returned to the shelter just two weeks after what we had hoped would be her forever home.

Shelter staff was working on finding a rescue to take River in, because she had been at the shelter three times now. Off-site adoption coordinator, Dovie Browning, tried one last time to find a home for this girl at an adoption event in Wichita, but no luck. 

One of the volunteers, Tim, offered to foster River until a rescue could be found. This resolution lasted only one car ride home. That car ride was enough for River to steal Tim's heart, and upon arrival at the shelter, he decided to give our sweet girl a forever home!
