sweet & feisty little girl!
she is absolutely precious with her one blue eye & one brown eye :)
Roxy was left behind as her family left with only two of her babies and left her, one of her pups and another pup in the hot yard to die. all were chained far apart from one another with no water of food. A kind neighbor provided comfort and care until rescue could be arranged.
Here is what the rescue person wrote after helping them Escape HELL:
So I met the neighbor there this afternoon and was just devastated when I pulled up. The smallest pup whose ribs you can see, who does belong to Roxy, was chained under the kids play set on the far left. Her only shelter was that plastic slide but her tiny chain wasn't long enough for her to get far enough under it for any real shelter. The larger pup, male, was chained under that wooden gazebo with half the roof missing so there was no real shelter there aside from shade from the sun from the large tree above. Roxy was hooked to a cable run and was only recently given the dog house after animal control went out and threatened them. Same animal control that was called when the dogs were abandoned there and could only say "well, what do you want me to do?" so I'm surprised they made them put a dog house out there at all. The 3 of them were tied out of reach from one another. Roxy and her pup had the most distance between them and it looks like she has only recently dried up The neighbor says she believes her to be only about a year & a half old and has produced 3 litters that she knows of. She said she is good with kids, as the neighborhood kids would go play with her in the yard and she was always great.
The brother to one of the dog owners was there. The "owner" gave him half a ziploc bag of dog food, instructed him to feed only Roxy, and said they wouldn't be back for the dogs. Roxy's baby is absolutely precious with her one blue eye & one brown eye :) All 3 of them were as sweet as could be. Roxy's pup was frail, obviously starving, and tangled in the chain. She was covered in dirt and feces and had a sad demeanor but perked right up when I picked her up and she couldn't stop herself from giving me a thousand grateful kisses. The male pup was also extremely sweet and equally dirty. He was wiggling all over the place in my arms when I picked him up and was just so thrilled to have some attention. Roxy is just a doll baby. She practically jumped into my arms when I approached her like she knew I was there to save her. She wasn't even cautious or shy and not a hint of aggression, she just wanted LOVE. When I first unhooked her from the run and put the leash on her, she still had no idea that she could move past her little area and stopped where the cable tension has taught her to stop. It took some encouragement for her to venture past the line but once she did, she made a beeline towards my car and hopped right in like GET ME THE HELL OUT OF HERE NOW!!! She was all over the car when she first got in, sniffing everything and was just overly excited. But, the second I got in the driver's seat she sat down in the back and just stared out the windshield. It was a 30 minute ride to the vet and she didn't move once or make a peep. Same with the pups. No whining, no barking, no pawing at the crates. They all just enjoyed the AC and the soft blankets they were lying on instead of dirt. I dropped them off at the vet where the 3 of them are staying together in a nice, large suite.
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.Other Pictures of Wc Litter Fiona - ADOPTED 08.07.11 (click to see larger version):
