Matthew, a 6-year-old Staffordshire mix, was a stray who arrived at BARC in Houston with healing wounds on his body and heartworm positive. Networkers shared his urgent plea for adoption, foster, or rescue across multiple subreddits, and one person pledged $25 to help him. Despite these efforts, Matthew lost his life at BARC. His loss was reported by u/fugueink in the April 28 list update.
