Update. It gets worse.
Many of you may remember the house fire post that went viral on X, where he had two fundraisers that reportedly raised approximately $18,000.
I have now located the real home.
It belonged to an elderly woman in Payne Springs, Texas, and that fire tragically resulted in the loss of four dogs.
If you read the comments on the community post about her, the reality is heartbreaking. After the fire she had to live in a shed in her backyard and needed blankets to stay warm on a cold night.
I am sick over this.
Please, now more than ever, verify before you donate or share. Real people and real animals are affected when misinformation like this spreads.

@Anita2422361806 I work with @LoneStarChica and I reached out to her when he posted my friends dog as his rescue and found out she knew he posted a dog at BARC Houston as his rescue.
I downloaded posts going back two years. Almost all of the dogs, if not all that he claimed to had rescued, were other peoples dogs. He stole their pictures and sold us a story and had fundraiser after fundraiser to take care of dogs that didnโt exist.
@mrshhjones@Hilly2826 @_DOGPOOL_ What I wanted? how do you assume what I wanted but not believe what your eyes see and that is he was using other peoples dogs as props to scam people. Make it make sense.
@mrshhjones@Hilly2826 @_DOGPOOL_ Ok. So no name.
4 dogs have been posted so far alongwith proof they were not his rescues. How many more dogs would it take for you to believe he was scamming people? 10, 20, 50?
