This is by far the saddest thing you will see all day.  Lana, a one-year-old Labrador mix, was rescued by Mighty Mutts when she was just a tiny puppy. She was adopted but was returned to the shelter after she snapped at her adopted mother. The family feared that her guarding behaviors around food could bring harm to their children so they decided to let her go.

Mighty Mutts posted this photo on their Facebook page, asking for immediate care for Lana and the photo quickly went viral.

Many animal shelters like Mighty Mutts understand the importance of training and they also encourage new owners to take the time to get to know their breed and have patience with training. They were fortunate enough to find a foster home for Lana but foster care is just temporary and she will eventually need a forever home. The good news is that Lana seems to be doing really well in foster care. Take a look.

The response to Lana has been huge and Mighty Mutts is hoping she finds a forever home very soon.
