Adopt a Boxer / American Bulldog / Mixed (short coat)
Zoey - ADOPTION PENDING the Dog needs a home
Zoey was tied to a tree with a thick chain. Zoey was never allowed to come indoors and receive the love, attention and medical care she needed. Zoey got pregnant, again, and her last litter were ate by coyotes. All but one puppy, who she was able to save. Thankfully, a good samaritan came upon her and was able to convince the owner to surrender her. At that time, we thought she was pregnant again. And was heartworm positive !!! Upon bringing her into our group, we discovered she was not pregnant (thank god) but her heartworm was so severely advanced, her body, lungs and heart was filled with a ton of extra fluid. Immediately, the vet began draining her abdomen of fluid. She was put on a few different drugs to continue helping her body to drain the fluids. After about a week, we soon discovered how very skinny she was.
Zoey has had a pretty crappy life. All this girl wants is to be loved and shown that she is important. She is great with kids, cats and dogs. Is friendly with everybody. And after being with us for 4 months, Zoey is feeling so much better and will be ready to be adopted by mid-February. This girl has such an amazing love for life and is so happy to be feeling so much better, you can truly see the difference in her personality.
She is housebroken, crate trained, is finally heartworm negative, is spayed and current on her vaccines. She has been treated for a couple of different internal parasites and is microchipped.
