Click apply to start the adoption process. Luke is a resilient four-year-old pit bull and Australian Cattle Dog/Blue Heeler mix seeking an adopter or rescue that can provide specialized care. He arrived at the shelter in urgent condition, battling a rectal prolapse, chronic uncontrolled skin allergies, and significant weight loss with persistent diarrhea. His diarrhea and weight issue may be related to a long-term gut disease such as a food allergy or inflammatory bowel disease, or they might be separate concerns. Luke urgently needs a rescue or adopter with the resources to support a dog who will likely require lifelong allergy management and possibly further specialty vet consultation in dermatology or internal medicine. The shelter has addressed his rectal issue with a surgical repair and begun medical management for his skin and digestive health, including a hypoallergenic diet, medication, and a pending skin culture. Luke’s spirit shines through his health struggles, and in the right hands, he has a chance for comfort and happiness. They are waiting with paws crossed! Apply now!
