My story

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


I found Zena abandoned during the winter one year and found out she was sick with worms. I took her into my home anyway and she was like a daughter to me for years. She's a wonderful pet and loyal friend that gets along with everyone. I have struggled financially to be able to take care of her lately due to a medical condition she has called Appcrincystamatosis. Her condition causes her to scratch intensively causing severe wounds needing immediate medical care. Zena has had surgery because she had had a uterus infection that almost costed her life. I was able to afford her surgery and flea, worm, and yearly shots up until I had a child and became a single mom. I am unable to give her the love and time of day that she deserves anymore. Zena is by far the sweetest dog and is a puppy at heart even though she is a senior. I want her to have a happier life rather than be stuck in a room with no attention. Zena has been wearing a cone for several months to prevent injuries when I'm at work.
