A foster mom is reaching out for help as she prepares to move and can no longer care for the adorable pit bull she has been fostering. Tiffany Patton took in 4-year-old Nemo last November, with the hope of preparing him for his forever home by working on his dog reactivity and potty training.
Unfortunately, Tiffany’s situation has changed, and with her upcoming move, Nemo may have to head back to the shelter unless a new foster or adoptive family steps forward soon. Knowing the stress and chaos that shelter life can bring, she has been giving Nemo extra love and attention during this difficult time.
In a recent TikTok video shared on her account @nemotiff, Tiffany showcases some tender moments with Nemo, who remains blissfully unaware of the impending changes. The heartwarming video captures their bond, showing how cherished Nemo is in his foster home.
As of Monday, the Animal Care Center has not received any applications for Nemo. Tiffany is holding on to hope that the power of social media can make a difference in the next few days.
In response to her heartfelt plea, viewers have rallied around Tiffany, offering encouragement and compassion. The video has garnered over 236,900 views and 19,300 likes, with comments expressing gratitude for the love Tiffany has shown Nemo.
One user expressed, “Thank you for giving this guy love and space to decompress. Really hoping we can find him a great home.” Another commented, “Literally the worst boat to be in. My heart goes out to both you and Nemo.”
Touched by these responses, Tiffany shared, “I often felt like I was the only one who cared about Nemo, but now I know I am not alone and that the world does care.”
