Needs special attention,

Story

My legs may not work, but please don’t mistake that for a life not worth living. Someone shot me, and the bullet left me paralyzed. I crawl when I need to, and when you put me in my wheelchair? I get to GO. I still love. I still play. I still light up when someone gives me attention. And if you look into my eyes, you’ll see just how much life is still in me. I do have special needs, daily medication, and ongoing medical care. What I need most is something the shelter simply can’t give me enough of — a home, one-on-one attention, and someone who sees me instead of my wheelchair. I survived the worst of someone. Now I’m waiting to experience the best of someone. My name is Genesis. Please give me that chance.September 1, 2026, 12:51 am

Story

My friend list may be small, and I’d really like to add you to it. I’m Ric Flair! I’m a cautious little guy who warms up with treats, patience, and kindness. Once I feel safe, my spunky side starts to shine. I enjoy getting outside to explore, especially when the weather is nice and cool. I’m just looking for someone to give me a chance, take things at my pace, and show me how good having a home can be.September 1, 2026, 12:51 am
