[RESCUE STORY]
This sweet girl was rescued from a puppy meel and ended up in a city shelter, left behind as an older dog that nobody wanted to adopt. She was placed on the euthanasia list simply because of her age. Out of deep compassion, she was rescued just in time and is now preparing for adoption. Despite her past, she shows only love, trust, and a gentle spirit. She’s ready to start a new chapter in life with a forever family who will cherish her golden years.
