Lainey

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Foster or forever home wanted, meet Lainey. Lainey's story hit all of us hard here at the rescue. We'll never know what happened to her to cause her to be completely shut down and frozen in fear at the shelter. One of our volunteers happened to see her in her kennel at the shelter, she stayed back in the corner and would not respond to attempts to get her to come forward.<br/><br/>Lainey was brought into the shelter by someone who claims she and several other dogs were obviously abandoned on a rather large multi acre property. The person that brought them in said she "cared" for them the best she could for a few months. Because the woman said to have "cared" for her for more than two weeks, she was considered an owner surrender even though she was originally abandoned and left to fend for herself.<br/><br/>What happened next and the reason Lainey was brought into the shelter was, she was seen digging into a chicken coop and had killed some chickens. It is unclear if other dogs were involved, we only received the information on Lainey. Poor Lainey, abandoned and starving, she saw the chickens as food and it was all about survival.<br/><br/>Upon intake, Lainey was noted as being scared but showed no aggression. Sadly, it was also noted that she was pregnant. Due to the current overpopulation problems at the shelters, they spay aborted her litter. Add that experience to an already shut down dog and now we have a very depressed dog.<br/><br/>The shelter gave Lainey three days to recover from her surgery before they did a behavior assessment. Consistent with the notes on her intake exam, Lainey showed no aggression toward the handlers or other dogs in the play group. Rather, Lainey chose to avoid contact and interaction.<br/><br/>Lainey could sure use a paw up to help her navigate this world that hasn't been so kind to her. She will not be an "add water and stir" kind of dog, but rather one that needs someone who will be patient and allow her to come around a little at a time, peeling back the layers of the onion.
