Description:
I know I'm a beautiful girl but I do have a condition called Megaesopahagus ( I strongly 
recommend googling it I learned tons of info on a yahoo group they have for Dogs with 
maege) she needs to eat standing on her hind legs so the food gets down in her stomach 
and doesn't sit in her esophagus. She is on 3 medications she will need to remain on 2 
are oral which I put in her food when she eats and one is an eye drop for a condition 
called Pannus. Each medication does cost around $30 for a month supply.  


When I got Heidi aka Maggie as we call her from Gratiot Co AC she had been found dragging 
a chain that was wrapped around her neck. She was heartworm positive and in bad shape. 
Weighed only 45lbs , she's a smaller girl but now weighs in at 68 lbs and looks great. 
She is strong willed your normal shepard and will need an experience owner and continued 
training. She's great with people can be questionable with some men thou. And prefers 
males dogs over female dogs. She will require a fenced yard for her adoptive home. It 
sounds like a lot but once you get in the routine it really isn't. Please research her 
condition if you are interested in giving her a forever home. If you have further 
questions you may want to consult your veterinarian or email me her foster mom at karen.wi
mberly@yahoo.com
. And I can answer them based on what we are doing now. Thanks for thinking of Heidi.

Last Day Dog Rescue now microchips all animals before adoption. Microchips are implanted between the animals shoulder blades and are a permanent form of identification. The microchips are registered to Last Day Dog Rescue with the adopter's info added once adopted. If the animal is ever lost and slips his/her collar/tags the microchip allows the finder to know who to contact if scanned for a microchip. Animals MUST still have a collar with tags on at all times. Per our contract, we take all our animals back if for any reason you can't keep your adopted animal.

Please understand the statements about this animal are based upon the foster home's evaluation of the animal. The animal might behave differently (negatively or positively) in your home. While the animal might be good with the current foster’s dogs, cats, children, etc., it may not be with your animal(s) or children. The animal may be housebroken or litter trained in the home of the foster but may relapse in your home. The animal is represented to the public as it performs in the foster home and any statements made regarding the animal are conditional to that foster home setting. Please understand that statements made regarding this animal are simply overviews and are not guaranteed.

The Petfinder.com system requires that we choose a predominant breed or breed mix for our animals. Visual breed identification in animals is unreliable so for most of the animals we are only guessing at predominant breed or breed mix. We get to know each animal as an individual and will do our best to describe each of our animals based on personality, not by breed label.

Thank you for looking through our list of animals needing forever homes and choosing rescue first. We appreciate you stopping by.
