**SAFE 08/05/16**SECOND CHANCE FOR BEAUTIFUL MISSU – LET’S MAKE IT COUNT!! MISSU IS A LITTLE OVER 21 POUNDS AND SURRENDERED DUE TO HER OWNER BEING SICK AND NO LONGER ABLE TO CARE FOR HER! This is the kind of SURRENDER that is just plain sad! Well, we know she was well fed, and she’s AVERAGE RATED and friendly. So why can’t she find a home? Because people won’t step up anymore… THAT’S WHY! They want to push the responsibility off on the next guy…or look the other way to erase the sadness of their stories. But nothing hurts more than nobody wanting you, and that’s how MISSU feels right now. Yea… she’s overweight…but would gladly run into your arms if you would save her life! Offer to FOSTER OR ADOPT this gorgeous girl , don’t let her have the chance to “MISS U!”
