‘Neglected’ Senior Shelter Dog Hopes To Be Chosen as He Has Little Time Left

Lloyd, an 8-year-old senior Pit Bull mix, was found as a stray in early June in a heartbreaking condition, missing much of his hair, with calluses, and overgrown nails. He was taken to Broward County Animal Care in Florida, where he has made significant progress in his health. Despite his recovery, Lloyd faces a shelter deadline and is in urgent need of a foster or forever home before September 3. Those who have interacted with Lloyd describe him as friendly, playful, and affectionate, though he has shown some barrier reactivity towards other dogs, suggesting he would benefit from an experienced adopter. Pet Project is sponsoring Lloyd, offering assistance with food, vaccinations, and veterinary care.
