Charity has been adopted!
Original:
Charity, her son Duke and housemate Tubby came into rescue from an owner relinquish situation in Woodbury, NJ. These three dogs (and 4 others which are being rescued by other groups)have been living in a home without utilities or running water. The owner has been going back a couple times a day to give them food and water and to the let them inside at night. All of the dogs are extremely thin. All were covered in fleas and mats, but are now safe, in foster care with MAESSR and loving every minute of it.
Charity has been shaved down to remove all the mats and flea infestation. That was when we realized just how thin she is. She was wonderful with at the groomers. She is spayed but has delivered several litters in her young life. She is very timid and not sure but once she has given you the OK, she wants to crawl inside your pocket and stay next to you. She is housebroken. She pulls on the leash which we are working with her on. She goes into the crate without a problem and loves to ride in the car.
She settles at night and goes right to sleep and is up early waiting patiently for some love and attention. She has shown no sign of aggression around the other dogs in the home.
Can you give Charity the life she deserves?
