Since mid-January, a handsome pit bull dubbed “huggable Horace” has managed to beat the odds at the busy Los Angeles County Baldwin Park animal control facility in California. But now, after months have passed, his future is uncertain.
Volunteer photographer John Hwang recently paid a visit to the facility and captured beautiful images of the homeless dog – Hwang wrote:
“Spent time with Auntie Elaine today. She’s been trying to find a a good home or rescue for a lovable dog she nicknamed “Huggable Horace.” Sadly he’s been at the shelter for the past few months with his future uncertain.”
Is there anyone who might be willing to give this homeless boy a chance? Someone who can see his potential to be a faithful companion? Please help Horace find his special someone by taking a moment to network his adoption information.

Did you know that if you want to get updates from a Facebook page, you have to do more than just “like” it? To get recent postings in your Facebook feed, you must also hover your mouse over the word “following” and then click “see first” from the drop-down menu. You may want to check back with your favorite pages on occasion because Facebook often changes your settings, no longer having your favorites among those to “see first.”
Omg, that face.
PLEASE someone step up for Horace – he deserves a safe loving home and you will never regret giving it to him. Don’t let Baldwin County murder him.
I’m actually going tomorrow to see if we’re a good fit. Fingers crossed.
