Hey there, I'm Lio and I'm a 5 year old boy who was rescued with my mom and sister when I was just a little puppy. I may look like a big, strong dog, but I am actually a sweet and gentle giant who loves nothing more than affection and gentle cuddle times. By sponsoring me, you will ensure that I receive the care, love and help I need to live a happy and healthy life. Becoming my sponsor would mean the world to me and I would be forever grateful for your support.
Will you consider sponsoring a happy dog like me? Thank you for thinking of making a difference in my life!
HOW YOU'LL HELP A DOG LIKE ME
Every dog at Bronx Familia Animal Shelter has a story. Some of us were born on the streets, others abandoned or left behind. Many of us arrived frightened, sick, or unsure if we’d ever be safe again. But one thing we all share is hope — hope that someone will care.
That someone could be you.
By sponsoring a dog like me, you’re giving more than food or shelter. You’re providing safety, medical care, warm meals, and the space to heal. You’re reminding us that even if adoption takes time, we are not alone.
Your support means everything. It helps dogs who are older, shy, or still learning to trust. It tells us that our lives matter — that we’re worth loving, just as we are.
Sponsoring a dog is a simple act with a powerful impact. It says, “I see you. I care.”
Will you be that someone for a dog like me?
With your help, we can go from forgotten… to truly loved.
