Proteus is doing great and showing lots of interest in fish!

Proteus is learning how to eat fish and will be in a pool before we know it!
Proteus is growing more and more each day!
I happen to see Proteus on the beach and called your agency. I’m so happy the pup is getting the help it needs. Thank you for all you do. I’ll be checking for updates 😊
Good luck little one! 💙
It’s nice to meet you Proteus, I was the one that named you!! It’s great to see you’re in good hands!! 💜🦭

I was on Dallas Road and saw Proteus on the beach and I called it in. I also sent in photos of him and soon after, someone came to rescue him. I am so happy he is under the good care of the MMR. Sending healing energy and love to Proteus. You’ve got this, little guy!
