Barstool Sports founder Dave Portnoy and his popular rescue pitty, Miss Peaches, have just posted an urgent plea to her TikTok account on Oct 6th – In the hopes of helping shelter dogs in Miami as Hurricane Milton approaches the south Florida coast. Specifically for a shelter in Medley in Miami-Dade county. Portnoy said, “It’s outside, they’re expecting flooding, and need foster parents just Tuesday to Saturday for the doggies.”

Within 24 hours, so many kind humans got in touch it overwhelmed their email servers. But as this situation is still developing, if you can help or know someone who might be able to foster, please still get in touch with them!
