Pony Girl's Story

Pony Girl (so named for the Stay Golden Ponyboy line from The Outsiders) has had a very tough life so far. When you look at her eyes in the photos, cant you just see it? This girl has been thru hell, and may never fully regain her coatbut doesnt she deserve love? A home?<br/><br/>We were told this girl was left locked in a crate in a basement for days on end. Her skin got worse and worse due to this neglect and then the lady who was doing this to her was kicked out and the senior guy who owned the home brought her upstairs into his home, but he never took her to the vet either. He was in poor health and had multiple strokes but was trying to take care of the dog. He ended up going to a nursing home and the dog was left home alone. He had a doggy door set up so she could go in and out. Neighbors stopped by to feed her and then the landlord reached out for help.<br/><br/>Pony Girl spent several weeks at our vet getting some much needed medical attention. Then she went to a boarding place to continue with medicate baths and treatment. We were lucky enough to find her a foster home and learn a bit more about Pony Girl. Unsurprisingly she has some separation anxiety and crate issues to work thru. Her ideal home has someone who is home predominantly and has another dog. Pony Girl loves other dogs and LOVES people. When you are home shes chill and wants affection. Shes housebroken and leash trained.<br/><br/>PonyGirls skin condition continues to improve! She's gained so much of her fur back and is doing wonderfully! She was cat tested and was unsure but willing to be nice to the cat. So with the right cat/situation I think she'll be ok.<br/><br/>PonyGirl could totally use sponsors for her care. Its $510 a month between her boarding ($360) and her medications. We are a 501c3 non profit, so donations are tax deductible.<br/><br/> At Autumn Acres Animal Rescue we believe each individual animal matters. We take in special cases some of which will stay with us as a sanctuary dog.If the animal is listed as a Socially Imperfect Dog this means they have special needs and special requirements for potential adopters.If the animal is listed as a Socially Imperfect RESIDENT this animal is NOT available for adoption and is one of our sanctuary residents. We list them on our sites because they still matter and they still need donations to help with their long term care.Check out our website for more information: http://www.autumnacres.org
