Collie, German Shepherd Dog [Mix]

Update:  5/2/09  Jazz has gone to her new home!  Hooray for Jazz!


Ok....how adorable is Jazz? Seriously.....could you ask for a cuter girl? Our Jazzy is a real sweetheart as well, she's got a vivacious personality and is just full of life!

Jazz is about 10 months of age and she has had a really rough start to life. Her prior owners got her as a puppy and put a collar on her neck when she was small then never removed that collar....as she grew the collar became tighter and tighter until it became imbedded in her neck cutting her and strangling her more and more everyday. The collar acted like a saw and sawed away at her neck tissue cutting her deeper and deeper every day. Her neck became infected from the open wounds caused by the collar sawing into her neck and I'm sure you can imagine the excrutiating pain she endured for weeks and weeks. Luckily someone saw her and called animal control and she was saved in time!

Jazz had to endure having that horrible collar removed surgically and the weeks of recovery as the infection and the wounds slowly went away. Does she show any emotional signs of this horrible mis-treatment.....nope. She's a happy healthy wonderful young girl. She is a little skittish of new things having probably never been out of her prior owners back yard, but she adjusts very quickly and is just a joy to watch bouncing around having so much fun with her new found freedom!

If ever there was a dog that deserves a better life then what she's had thus far....this is that dog.
