Get ready – this story is a sad one…

For the last 2 years, my husband has been greeted by 2 dogs at the local gas station, and has come to befriend them over time. These two dogs are Sandy, the beautiful boxer featured on this page, and Low Rider, a kind male basset hound who can be seen here. They would see him and come running – hoping for a dog treat and some affection.

About ten days ago, their owner moved out of the house, leaving her and her male basset hound companion behind. We took food & water to them, hoping that the owner would come back for them after finishing his move. Friday that week, the landlord called the dog pound to pick them up – which gave them only 5 days to be claimed before being euthanized. Well – what could we do? Our rescue now has two more great dogs looking for their forever homes – Sandy and Low Rider!

While here at our rescue, Sandy will be having a full vet check and whatever she needs. Vet says she is 4.5 years old and weighs in at 59 pounds – but don’t let that sweet, calm face fool you. She has lots of energy and is full of precious! We are looking for a special family that is willing to adopt this sweet girl, and make her feel like family for a lifetime. She will sit & stay. She rides great in our truck. If you are that special family that has love for a senior dog, then please click here for the adoption application.

We know that Sandy’s story will have a happy ending… Are you the one who will write it for her?
