My story

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


I got Basil when I was in high school when she was just about 8 weeks old. She’s been an amazing dog, and is a very sweet girl. Within the last 1.5 years, shortly after having my daughter, Basil has experienced severe skin issues and weight loss. Her skin sheds everyday, all day long, as she scratches herself until told to stop. Then gets right back to scratching… I’ve changed her diet, given her different medications prescribed by a vet, along with an allergy shot and a steroid shot. Nothing I’ve done has helped, and I cannot afford to care for her anymore. It saddens my family and I to say goodbye to Basil, but for her health we have to let go. Whoever adopts Basil needs to understand there WILL be vet testing and medication cost for her.
