This is despicable. Time to let Snuggles go back to his family.
Wednesday marks one year since Sergeant Snuggles went into a kennel on what his family says was a 10 day quarantine.
Pima County has held him ever since. His family's Sept 28 federal filing says the county's own form set his release date: October 17, 2025.
Picture your dog behind a kennel door for twelve months. The county's chart, as quoted in that filing, has him on trazodone and gabapentin "for shelter stress."
It says staff were told not to talk to his owner, who learned of a January medical emergency eight months later.
The family paid an $11,000 appeal bond, per the county's memo. The woman who was bitten opposes his destruction, the family's lawyer told KVOA.
If the records say what that filing says, Pima County is warehousing a family dog and keeping his family in the dark.
Sign the petition. Call Pima County.
Ten days was the promise. One year is the record. Pima County owns every day in between.
