“Months prior to now, on Christmas Eve, I was scrolling by means of Fb as soon as I seen a submit about two abandoned canines. The gentleman who found the canines (and who we later named Lainey and Frankie) was begging for help.
He had found them in a ditch down the freeway from his residence and had no thought what to do with them. No matter our plans to journey over the New Yr, we knew we needed to help these canines. We proceeded to ship them home and keep our breath for the next 36 hours until our vet opened—we’ve got been afraid Lainey would succumb to her infections.
She appeared like an alien creature. She stunk, she couldn’t see, and she or he bled all through our couch.


To our delight, Lainey not solely survived, nonetheless thrived in our home. With the help of frequent vet visits, antibiotics, ivermectin, and twice-weekly medicated baths, her infections began to clear.
Her hair grew once more, and her spirit was revived. We then found who the true Lainey was: a humorous, loving lady who had certainly not had the prospect to be a pet. It was lastly her time to get pleasure from life as an precise canine! And that’s exactly what she did and continues to do.

4 months flew by and sooner than we knew it, our as quickly as pungent, swollen foster canine was ready to go looking out her ceaselessly family. The timing couldn’t have been further serendipitous as a superb good pal of ours, Kelly, was trying to find a companion.
We’ve been ecstatic to go looking out out she was contemplating Lainey and had been following our footage and posts about her progress. After sending additional particulars, footage, and flicks, Kelly and her husband, Larry, have been smitten and we began arranging her adoption.
Lainey, now Luna, lives the spoiled life in Georgia alongside together with her mom and father and three cat siblings. We couldn’t have requested for a higher life for her.




We’d moreover want to take the time to say because of Brown Canine Coalition out of Hopkinton, MA. They answered our Christmas Eve identify for help and paid for all of her veterinary care. They rescue quite a few canines and cats from southern states yearly, many with principal medical needs, and certainly not spare any worth. They’re an unimaginable group of people who we’re terribly grateful to know and work alongside with.”
