One month ago (April 30th)
Charlotte was rescued from Downey Shelter (CA).
She had spent over seven months of her young life
in a cold, concrete cell, while the court case for her previous owner dragged on!
Charlotte's In-take photo; mauled by 3 dogs... so sad!
She had been beaten and used as a bait dog by him.
Despite this horrific treatment Charlotte, somehow, maintained
a sweet, loving, & submissive disposition.
She became a shelter favorite and was often allowed to run off-leash in building two.
The time came when the court case was over and she was no longer needed as "evidence"
...therefore, she was scheduled for euthanization.
I just couldn't allow this to happen to her, not after all she'd endured,
not after seeing what a love-bug, kiss-bull she was,
not after I KNEW she would make a wonderful pet
if she were only allowed to be the happy dog she was meant to be!
She has spent the last three weeks at "Green Dog" in Los Angeles
where she has been socialized with other dogs and learning how to be in a pack.
She already knew basic commands, was good on the leash,
and was great indoors in an apartment or home.
She showed no signs of separation anxiety, no chewing or destructive behavior what-so-ever.
She loves all people and children.
Apparently, now she can even go on walks and become mates with other dogs.
I, her rescuer, have recently found out that I am losing my job and my home!!
Therefore, I can no longer afford to keep her at Green Dog and have no place to keep her myself.
Won't you PLEASE give Charlotte the chance she deserves?
We just CANNOT allow her to end up back at a shelter...
not now, not after as far as she has come!!
