Fluffy's story has gone viral as they say! April was for HUGE for Fluffy and his campaign to lose 20 pounds. The outpouring of support has been overwhelming. We are so lucky that Fluffy has so many friends.

In case you missed the media frenzy, here are some key media highlights:

Wednesday, April 11th -- WTOP's home page and radio program. Click here to see their webpage story.
Thursday, April 12th -- WRC NBC Washington interview of Fluffy and Foster Mom Marilyn with reporter, Derrick Ward. Great two minute story that appeared on both the 5pm and 6pm NBC news programs. Here is the link to the interview.

Meet Fluffy Pork Chop

Fluffy Pork Chop is a 6-8 year old Cocker Corgi (best guess) mix with an adorable face and a strong will to live. He and five of his housemates were surrendered to the SPCA when their owner was evicted. He is considered morbidly obese and weighed in at 42 pounds upon arrival to OBG.

It's safe to say that this turn of events probably saved Fluffy's life. If you are interested in meeting Fluffy, click here to get in touch with his foster.
