This week, an adorable mixed-breed puppy was thrown away in a trash can outside of a Tennessee animal control agency. On July 12, the Springfield Animal Control posted multiple photos of the puppy, along with a request and explanation as to how she was found.
The animal control agency’s post on Facebook reads:
Good afternoon!! This baby need a good loving caring home, I came to work this morning and she was inside the trash can ?????Please help me find a good home for her. I give her a warm bath, she was hungry and thirsty.
The post struck a chord with Facebook followers who expressed sadness and outrage over the way that the puppy was abandoned. Fortunately, there ultimately is a happy “tail” for this adorable pup – on Thursday, the animal control agency announced that the puppy had already been adopted.
According to the Tennessean, social media has been an excellent resource for the shelter – in fact, postings to Facebook are so successful that only sick or extremely aggressive dogs are put down now.
A follow-up call to the person who adopted this pup revealed that things seem to be going well – the adopter repeatedly mentioned that the puppy is very loving.

Per Springfield Animal Control: GREAT NEWS…….ADOPTED YESTERDAY!!!!
“The puppy is very loving”. Yet someone saw her as trash? I hope Karma drops in on the idiot that tossed her away.
I for one am very happy that this Tennessee Shelter is having a POSITIVE rehoming success with the abandoned and neglected animals… May the ‘Riff-Raff” that dumped this little dog so heartlessly MET with KARMA down the long road of LIFE!!
