"Please keep my name. My name is Lilo. Please love me. My mom can't keep me and is homeless with 2 kids," the note began. "She tried her best but can't get help. I cost too much for her. She really loves me & I'm a great dog & love to be loved on. Please don't abuse me."

Lauren Mann, the director of advancement at McKamey Animal Center, told "Good Morning America" that the McKamey staff was especially moved by the anonymous message.

"It really hit us all, especially that last line of ‘Please don't abuse me,'" Mann said. "So we decided that we were going to take to social media and hopefully through the power of Facebook and everyone that's out there, we would hope that we could find her."
