From Central Valley Rescue Railroad

UPDATE: Big Papi was adopted this year, but we recently learned he was in a local shelter; we bailed him out and attempted to contact the owner but he is not responding. He has had way too much drama in his little life and now he needs to find a real, permanent home.Big Papi’s story is one we see far too often. He was left behind due to a medical condition his owner either couldn’t afford or chose not to address. He was discovered at a veterinarian’s office after receiving a call (from the possible owner) saying he’d been left at their back door. Despite efforts, Big Papi’s owner was never located. Despite that rough goodbye, this sweet 7‑year‑old boy has shown nothing but gentleness. He did have a small tumor, but it was removed with no lasting issues. What remains is a tenderhearted little guy who’s understandably a bit shy at first. Once he realizes you’re safe, he allows handling with no hesitation—he just needs a moment to trust.Big Papi gets along well with other dogs and has even started venturing out on walks. He’s ready for a home where he can take his time, settle in, and finally feel like he belongs. Are you the one who can show him that people can be kind, patient…

In the rescue's own words, as they published it.
