Key takeaway The dog, named Gizmo, had been with his owners since he was six weeks old and held a special place in their lives.
A family is searching for their diabetic dog after he was transferred from a shelter before they could reclaim him. The dog, named Gizmo, had been with his owners since he was six weeks old and held a special place in their lives. He got loose and ended up at a shelter, where his owners attempted to pick him up but were met with an unexpected fee.
The family was given a document indicating Gizmo would be available for pickup until a certain date, but it appears he was transferred before then. His current status is unknown, with no information on whether he was adopted or is in a rescue. Further details on the situation are available from the source.
