A badly neglected dog named Snickers was facing an untimely demise at Houston’s BARC animal shelter. But Snickers was rescued by Beeson Family Rescue before the unthinkable happened.
Unfortunately, Snickers is reported to be “extremely ill” with an upper respiratory infection.
Information about Snickers was posted to social media on Tuesday afternoon:
Snickers was saved from Barcs kill list. Within a day of leaving he started showing signs of having a URI (upper respiratory infection) 😢. This emaciated, already sickly baby is extremely ill 😢 His breathing is labored 😞 He needs lots of prayers. He’s being hospitalized.
Snickers is being treated at Sienna Plantation Animal Hospital and concerned people are being asked to call the veterinary hospital to make a donation towards his care (under his foster’s name, Luiza Brach) at 281-778-5244.
Please keep Snickers in your thoughts and make a donation to his care if you are able.

Lots of prayers for you snickers. You have to hang on. You deserve a good life.
I will pray for Snockers & all other animals in need. I love Snickers! He tugs at my heart. My husband won’t let me have another dog. I’m heart boy. I’ll try to help Snickers recovery!
Be strong Snickers. Lots of love ❤️ & prayers 🙏🙏🙏 for you. Get better. ❤️🐕❤️🙏
BARC is such a fast kill shelter. That poor dog needs the more expensive antibiotic long lasting shot, So many shelter dogs and cats are getting horrible URI and even pneumonia. It has to be that shot and oxygen to really help cure the poor dogs. I am so thankful that he got out alive and now please really attach the URI as he is think and probably doesn’t have good resistance.
Poor, sweet baby.. .Blessings and peace to this soul…
Even the ones BARC doesn’t kill seem to be too sick to stand a chance when given that miracle. They all deserve better.
Oh poor baby Snickers! I am looking to get a “rescue” dog and he’s just what I’m looking for, but I’m in Canada and have no way to either get him here or come and get him. Of course this would be once he is all better.
I’m sending big prayers 🙏, hugs 🤗 🫂, kisses 💋 😘 to you Snickers! Thank you to everyone who sends $ to help with the medical care he needs. I’m sending some $ in too!
We actually transport from Texas to Canada! Snickers has a lot of interest but Shelter A Mutt in Alice Tx takes dogs into Canada
I hope sweet Snickers will recover! He deserves a second chance on happiness!!
LOVE YOU, Snickers — hang in there —
