Grace, 4 years Female Australian Shepherd  Mix Click on picture to enlarge Scheduled Arrival: Feb-March 2008 Apply To Adopt Update on Grace: She has been staying at the vet's while she is being treated for heart worm. She is eating and gaining wt. Dr. Everett's husband said Grace is spoiled! Sometimes she will only eat her food off a spoon! He sits and hand feeds her when she is not feeling okay and refuses to eat any other way. Right now she is eating three times/day without being hand fed. We're hoping she can come up once she completes her last treatment and confinement. We still need to raise more funds for Grace as her treatment has been complicated due to a tick-borne illness, which lengthened her confinement at the vet. Donations are much appreciated. Here is Grace's story. She was picked up by two women who were just finishing transporting dogs. She was wandering along interstate 40, crossing back and forth. They stopped; hoping to check her tags and take her home. But the collar was old and very tight and it was clear she didn't have a home. They contacted Save A Dog; we said we'd take her; and they named her Grace because they'd made a wrong turn and shouldn't have even been there to find her… but for the grace of God. A rescue friend of Save A Dog took her in, found out she was heart worm positive and suffering from a rare tick-borne illnes. So she is being built up so she can be treated for heart worm. Then she can come up and find her forever home.

Pablo, 3 years Male Lab / Husky  Mix Click on picture to enlarge Scheduled Arrival: March 2008 Apply To Adopt Update: Pablo didn't make it on the transport. He was too upset by the vet trip so he spiked a fever, which went down upon arrival home. Nevertheless, he was not able to get a health certificate. We'll try to figure out a way to relay him up here in a non-stressful way in the near future. Pablo was a kill-shelter rescue 3 years ago at 8 weeks old. He was brought to a sanctuary where he has been ever since. The teen volunteers and Save A Dog director, Shirley, discovered him this past summer while we were on a mission trip in WV and we fell in love. He is about 60 lbs. and is neutered and vaccinated. He is crate-trained and gets along well with other dogs. He was raised with cats as a puppy and is good with them also. He is a mix with possibly some Husky or other northern breed in his background because of his "slanted" eyes. He is very playful and likes to "fetch", but doesn't always bring the object back..... but with a little training he'd be a great backyard playmate! He loves to sit for a good petting. He is very lovable! He is finally coming on 3/30/08 and available after 4/1/08. Last Modified: 3/30/2008 7:25:00 AM EST Printable Description
