Maria's Story

Maria came to us severely malnourished, starved from being abandoned to fend for herself. She is slowly gaining weight and will be available to go to a new home soon. Applications are being accepted for her at this time in hopes she will have a forever family waiting when she is ready to leave. We are expecting her to be able to go to a new home in approximately four weeks. <br/>Maria needs very slow introductions to new dogs and does have some resource guarding issues therefore a home where she is the only dog may be best. <br/>She does very well in the house when on a dedicated bathroom break schedule. <br/>She is a little timid so we are looking for a home without young children for her. <br/>Maria weighed only four pounds when she came to us and is currently up to 7 pounds. She will be spayed prior to leaving for a new home. <br/>Please consider sponsoring Maria to help with the expense of her recovery.
