Extra Special Dogs

Many of our dogs come to us nearly ready for adoption, and with just a couple of weeks of care, vaccinations, and spaying or neutering, they are ready to be adopted. Unfortunately, this is not always the case.

Some of our dogs require special care. This may be due to medical conditions, injuries, behavioral or socialization issues, or heartworm infections. These dogs require extra effort, time, and funding before they are ready for adoption.  Their time in foster care is much longer than the typical dog, as they require special treatment. You can read more about our extra special dogs below.

Nelly 

Picture
Nelly is one of our sweet heartworm positive dogs. We were called out to rescue her on the eve of an ice storm. We could immediately see the neglect she had suffered--the horrible chain and all of her bones visible showed what she had suffered. We could also see her loving, gentle nature immediately. Nelly has been the sweetest, best dog in her foster home.  She is well-behaved and is wonderful with the dogs and humans in her foster home. 

Nelly needs to have her heartworms treated before she can be adopted. Any donations to her medical care bring her closer to finding the forever home she deserves and the happy ending that she has been waiting for.  You can donate to Nelly's care on our Donate page or contact us and tell us you want to help Nelly!
