In St. Cloud, Florida, a distressing incident has unfolded involving Baby, a senior dog who relies on a custom wheelchair to move around. Baby, a hospice resident at The Pittie Party of Central Florida, cannot walk without her wheelchair. Recently, someone stole the wheelchair from the rescue's porch, leaving Baby without a means to move independently. The rescue expressed their heartbreak and frustration on social media, highlighting the difficulty of caring for Baby without the wheelchair. The custom wheelchair, valued at $800, is essential for Baby's mobility, and the rescue is actively seeking funds to replace it. The St. Cloud Police Department is investigating the theft and encourages anyone with information to contact them at 407-891-6700. This incident underscores the importance of organizations like Lily's Second Chance, which support senior dogs and their unique needs, advocating for their well-being and care.
