Story
MEET HOPE! She is a sweet, affectionate girl who just loves to snuggle up on the couch. She can be shy too, but she'll warm up quickly to humans of ALL ages. She does well with cats and dogs that respect her space -- she's not one to get all up in other critters' grill! She does have some health issues that require medications, but she is a champ at taking them and she has worked hard to overcome her challenges. Please note: Hope's medications are approximately $100 per month plus specialty food. We are thankful to Susie's Senior Dogs, a wonderful group that is sponsoring Hope's adoption fee and a providing for a portion of initial medications for the lucky adoptive family! Hopes story: Hope came to us grossly overweight and barely able to walk, with untreated Cushings, low thyroid, cherry eye, bladder stones and infected dewclaws -- she also had a mouth full of rotten teeth! We gave her "the works", and she is now regulated on her thyroid/Cushing meds, has a brand-new mouth and new feet! We did cherry eye surgery, but unfortunately it didn't take, so she is managing right now with daily medication for that as well. Hope is such a sweet, strong girl that just enjoys being around her people, so a family that is home more than away would be ideal for her. She walks well on-leash, but goes slow and would probably do best with shorter walks at a pace that allows her cute little legs to keep up. Hope's foster family says you should adopt Hope because "Hope is a very sweet dog who just wants to spend her golden years chilling with someone who loves her (and has lots of treats!)." Her foster family also says, even though she has health issues, she's definitely worth the work!!!! Hope's spirit has been so strong to fight through things -- she deserves to be doted on and loved for her senior years. Think you may be her perfect family? Apply to meet her today!
