Sam

The devastating impact of neglect was felt deeply this week with the loss of Sam. A victim of a Spencer County hoarding case, Sam was one of many puppies rescued while suffering from advanced pneumonia. At only six weeks old, her system was too compromised to overcome the illness, and she passed away within 24 hours of entering specialty care. Sam’s story is a sobering reminder of why our advocacy for hoarding victims and early medical intervention is so critical.
