Meet Chili

CHILI, 8 months, 30 lbs. is a potcake puppy we pulled as a transfer from Abaco Shelter in Abaco, Bahamahs. Back in March this baby nearly lost her life after a clothesline had been tied around her neck. As she was likely looking for food, she got tangled in thick brush and debris left over from Hurricane Dorian (Abaco is still struggling to rebuild.) As she thrashed about, desperate to free herself, the clothesline cut deeper, stopping only when it reached her trachea. A woman heard her crying and called our friends at the shelter, who sent their volunteers out. It took them two visits to find her, but they did, just as her body was about to give up. She healed slowly over two months and has no permanent damage.

While CHILI still wears the scars on her neck, her heart is whole. She needs to be walked via harness, but her past is behind her and she is opening up! This Bahamas baby, now a Jersey girl, is fostered Parsippany. CHILI is timid and fearful to new humans but opens up considerably with dogs. Her best home has at least one friendly pup. She hasn’t been cat tested but we think she’d be fine with a cat as well, though at least one dog is a must for her.

TO ADOPT: CHILI is spayed, microchipped and vaccinated. Apply online at mrbonesandco.org/adopt. CHILI is fostered in Parsippany, NJ and needs a suburban/rural home. Due to her fearfulness she can’t live in a city setting. We are accepting applications from NY, NJ, MD, VA, CT, PA, MA, DE homes.
