While working diligently in the garden my husband called me to the fence, urgently needing my help. What I saw next broke my heart. This little dog was encrusted with feces, leaves, etc.;its eyes were totally obscured. She weighed nothing. She was so emaciated and dehydrated, I didn't know if I could save her. She was taking her last breaths. She had hobbled down the hill to us just in time. It was Friday when she came to us. We hydrated, fed, bathed, and groomed her. By Monday, having eaten and slept, she was up and about, though very weak. Went to the vet to see if she was chipped (not) and got her vaccinated. She had gained 2 lbs. up to 5.5 from 3.5. We have 4 other rescue dogs, so knew what to do. I kept checking the neighborhood posts for two weeks no one claimed her. Snow White aka Angel is the sweetest little dog. She took to her other furry family immediately, though she is deaf and blind in one eye. We estimate her to be about 10-12 years. She snuggles, loves being held and especially being brushed. Doesn't really care for bath time and has learned to use the doggie door or bark when she needs to go out or just be held. We are on fixed incomes. The vet bills are costly for her specialized eyecare. Although we've struggled to pay the bills, we would like to provide the best care for her so she can live out her remaining years in comfort. She may need cataract surgery in her good eye.
