About this campaign

Bred by the worst of the backyard breeders to be a bait dog, Sally was tortured and then dumped in a cemetery.

Then people living nearby repeatedly tried to shoot her! Sally was so terrified it took animal control officers days to coax her from behind the headstones where she was hiding.

When The Sanctuary at NE Ohio Greyhound Rescue heard about Sally, they immediately offered to save her.

"Although still terrified of most people, Sally immediately bonded with her female caretaker, finding sympathy and softness she had never known while discovering her courage and ability to love," Duane J., with the rescue, tells Waggle.

Their veterinarian found scabs covering her skin from mange. She was nearly bald. Sally's jaw and teeth are malformed to the point where she cannot keep her tongue inside her mouth.

Sally now needs a complete set of dental X-rays, a thorough exam, and a cleaning to determine the health of her jawbones and teeth. Dogs like Sally can sustain broken jaws easily.

"As a nonprofit rescue, we specialize in caring for special needs dogs like Sally and rely on donations to pay for veterinary bills," Duane says. "Please help us help her!"
