Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Update: Abelle is fully vetted and ready for her forever home! She is guessed at a lab/basset mix as she is getting long and low with a lab like face and ears. She is such a sweet girl. She can be a little shy at first but we know she will blossom in an awesome home and family!
This sweet little girl is on the road to recovery. She was brought to rescue with 12 others (a true bakers dozen) by a fellow rescuer after being surrendered by their owner. We are so grateful she did surrender to find them the care they needed because they all really needed some help and extra TLC. Little Abelle is the worst off. She is skin and bones, was dehydrated and put on IVs. Her gums were pale and she was full of worms. She is now off of IVs and being fed slowly and often to build her body back up. She has been dewormed twice and has been pooping and vomiting worms for 24 hours. We are working hard to keep their living area clean as they recover and rid their bodies of the parasites. Abelle is named after sweet Abel, the doberman that was laid to rest the day she was saved. We know she is a fighter like he was and we know she will recover. We are told she is about 4 months old but she's the size of an 8 week old. It's ok though. It's only going to get better from here!
If interested in meeting and potentially adopting, please complete the adoption application located at forbellessake.org. Adoption fee is $175 and all residents are spayed/neutered, vaccinated, microchipped, dewormed regularly and treated for any known medical issues. *breeds are not guaranteed* *If a yard is present, a fence is required. If no yard, a leash requirement at all times when out of a fenced area and access to a dog park for unleashed exercise* *No resident is guaranteed housetrained. Our focus is major behavioral and medical rehabilitation. A dog displaying housetraining can still regress in a new environment, routine, etc as well.
