April Needs a Foster or Adopter to Secure Her Second Chance
April is currently in Georgia and is hoping for a foster or adopter to help her move forward into a safer, happier future with Mutt Life Dog Rescue.
Meet April
April’s story is one of survival and quiet resilience. This approximately 2.5-year-old Husky/Pit mix came to the shelter as part of a neglect case. Before her former owner could attend court, they were evicted and surrendered April to the shelter. She had been living outdoors in freezing conditions, with only a tiny metal trash can for shelter when temperatures dropped to 19 degrees.
Despite everything she’s been through, April is described by shelter staff as a truly great dog. She is friendly, well-mannered, and gets along wonderfully with both male and female dogs, showing no issues during interactions. April has a calm, steady presence and seems grateful for kindness, making her a lovely companion for a variety of homes.
Weighing about 55 lbs, April is heartworm negative and has her spay scheduled. She’s ready to leave her past behind and finally experience the comfort, safety, and love she has always deserved.
