Past Urgent Needs Dogs

Past urgent needs dogs

Jake

Written by AFTR

Jake was surrendered by his owner to a local Maryland shelter. We were told that he is good with children but not housebroken at 9 years old. He was vaccinated on a regular basis and groomed, but he was intact and desperately needed dental care. So an appointment was made and Linda took him to the vet.

Lily

Lily came to us Heartworm positive. She was a sad little dog that required weeks of very intense and painful treatment, followed by confinement so that she wouldn't dislodge any heartworms, which can kill a dog.

Sugar

Written by Lucie

Sugar is one of the Missouri 11 dogs - and sadly, the most traumatized. Sugar spent the first six years of her life in a cage bearing puppies and based on her reaction to people especially men she was mostly definitely abused. She was terrified of everyone and everything. Though Sugar has made great progress with love, patience and medication she still has a long way to go. Sugar will be visiting a Veternarian who specializes in Behavior Modification next month.

Sophie

Sophie was found by a kind hearted family in rural North Carolina along the side of a road. She had very bad teeth and a number of mammary tumors. She was such a sweet little dog, and we had high hopes that she could be helped.
