My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Meet Lady Hope!
Lady Hope is the sweetest love bug with a submissive personality and an unlimited amount of love to give. She has never met a stranger and loves every human and dog she meets. She is always ready for snuggles but is respectful of requests to mind your personal space. She loves nothing more than taking naps in all her favorite spots - out in the sun, in her bed, or on the couch. She loves play time with her doggy sister but also amuses herself and loves to play with her toys! Cuddles and pets are always welcome - she particularly enjoys a good neck scritch since her back legs don't allow her to reach her neck well. Hope is potty trained but has had the occasional accident. She loves to collect her foster mom's slippers and shoes but doesn't chew them. She has chewed the occasional lace or cord but she's learning quickly what items are not toys. Although she's still young she's extremely bright and learns quickly. She is incredibly resilient and has overcome all the challenges life has thrown her way. She has adapted and improved every day since her rescue.
Life hasn't dealt Hope the easiest hand but you sure wouldn't know if from her vibrant personality. Hope has some issues with her rear legs and hips. She suffers from dystrophy that's possibly congenital resulting in underdeveloped rear legs. She has had x-rays and seen some of the best specialists who currently do not recommend surgery because she gets around so well! She seems to still have full feeling in her back legs and has no issues going potty on her own. She does have some limited range of motion in her hips, knees and ankle joints. These impairments do not slow her down! She runs and plays in the yard, can pull herself onto the couch and gets down without issue but monitoring her is recommended so that she doesn't accidentally fall. Her once daily medicine has resulted in great improvements since rescue. We have been working on building up her strength and continuing to improve strength is the most important thing for her progress. One of her back legs can buckle and drag a bit and it has been recommended for her to get a cart (wheelchair) so that she can participate in walks or activities on harder surfaces. Attention will need to be paid to that paw to make sure she is not causing any injury but has thus far been just fine on grass. The vet has also recommended a brace for that leg to help protect it on hard surfaces. She loves walks and activities and the more she can participate, the better! Lady Hope has stolen our hearts and though she may not be the easiest dog to take on, she will repay you ten-fold in love. She is truly such a delight and is guaranteed to put a smile on your face every day.

More about this rescue

The mission of One Love Animal Rescue, Inc. is to help abandoned, neglected, abused and unwanted pets by partnering with shelters, rescue groups and the community to facilitate adoption of these animals into permanent and loving homes.

Our goal is to save one life at a time by promoting local animal shelter adoptions and raising awareness in our community about responsible pet ownership. We strive to highlight the importance of spaying or neutering pets which will aid in the reduction of overpopulation. We believe that appropriate and positive reinforcement training and socialization of these shelter animals will lead to well-adjusted family pets, thereby decreasing the number of abandoned animals in shelters. Our dream is that one day all the shelters will be empty because every pet will have a home.

One Love Animal Rescue, Inc. is a volunteer based organization located in Savannah, Georgia. We are a 501(c)(3) non-profit and all donations directly benefit the animals entrusted in our care.
