"Jimmy" beagle/hound mix
1 yr male
AT THE SCOTT COUNTY ANIMAL SHELTER...came in very skinny last week after being discovered in the 2nd story of an abandoned house in the county. Apparently, he wasn't able to get down after the stairs collapsed and fortunately, someone spotted her looking out the window. Animal control and the fire department were able to get him down and it was only in the nick of time. Not too much longer before he would have starved to death. Now, he is looking much better and is such a delightful boy. Happy that someone was lookin around for him!
