Dog Who Suffers From Skin Condition Finds Happiness In His New Foster Home

Bubba is a nine-month-old puppy who suffers from demodectic mange, a condition that leaves his skin irritated and unable to grow fur. He was given to a shelter after his original family had realized they were unable to afford his vet bills.

Sacramento SPCA was able to place him in Melissa Roberts’ foster home and an orange house cat named Mandy.

Melissa got him his own bigger one, but even after that, he still gravitates toward the cat’s smaller bed!

Melissa speculates Bubba likes the smaller one because he feels snug and it helps him forget about his skin.
