Original Release

Bilbo Waggins is fighting for his life and needs your help!

Our SPCA Enforcement Officers were heading back to the shelter when they spotted Bilbo running at large. He was nothing more than skin and bones. As a direct result of Bilbo’s poor physical condition and a pending investigation, he was seized and rushed in for emergency veterinary care.

Bilbo was starving. His ribs were poking out and he was covered in sores. A male Boxer typically weighs 70 pounds. Bilbo was barely 30 pounds. When dogs are this emaciated their organs begin to shut down. Our veterinary team wasn’t sure he would survive the weekend.

The trauma he faced may have scarred Bilbo forever. As a proud no-kill shelter, the SPCA will do everything possible to help Bilbo Waggins but he needs your help.

Please donate to help Bilbo on his long road to recovery here:

Your support will provide everything Bilbo needs from intensive medical treatment to nutritious high-calorie food. He is under constant care and started a new refeeding schedule of small, frequent meals. The investigation is ongoing.

Every bit helps. By donating to his care today, you’ll truly be saving lives. Thank you for your compassionate support!
