MY STORY: This adorable girl with the beautiful blue eyes is McKenzie. She has had a very rough life. This poor girl lived outdoors through temperature changes, wind, snow, and rain. McKenzie was kept on a 4 foot leash with no food, water, or medical care. The area in which she lived was covered in feces and garbage. Luckily, a good Samaritan has rescued her and gotten her the medical attention that she needed.

Despite her horrible past, she has a very sweet personality. She is now putting on weight. Since she previously had little human contact, McKenzie needs a patient and understanding person or family to socialize her and teach her basic commands. She needs an indoor home where she will get a soft bed, good food, and the comfort of loving arms.

Can you give McKenzie the chance to become the dog she is meant to be? She will repay you with adoring gazes, happy tail wags, and love always. Please apply to adopt McKenzie today.

You can save animals like this one by becoming a foster! We desperately need fosters so that more dogs can be saved before they are euthanized at the shelters.
