ANGEL was dumped by her family in a Missouri Shelter and slated to be euthanized due to her age and slight chance of being adopted; however, her personal angel came along and pulled her from that fate.  She's been vetted and appears healthy with exception of not being able to hear (deaf), which really hasn't been any problem for her or her foster family.  We're told all she wants is to have a special SOMEONE to hang out with.....so, she isn't asking much.  Might you be the one that would love to make her wish come true?  If we're lucky, we'll all be old one day and know just how she feels.

UPDATE: Angel has moved into her foster home and blended right in from the first moment, to include talking her foster sibling Teddy out of his favorite bed.  She's quite the delight and asks so little.  She does like to be close to her person, but can we blame her for that, I think not.  She's also visited a friend in the local care home and delightfully entertained everyone she met there too.  Don't miss the chance to consider doing a GOOD THING for a precious senior sheltie....you'll soon find out that YOU'RE THE WINNER of this offer.  If a financial burden is what you worry about adopting an older dog, don't let that stand in your way......let us explain, if you're interested in being Angel's personal angel.

Adoption fees range from $150-$275, based on the age/adoptability of each specific dog.  HOWEVER, please inquire about our SENIOR  SANCTUARY PROGRAM  if you are open to adopting a dog in double digit years.  We believe these SPECIAL individuals and families deserve even more consideration/support and we make every effort to make these adoptions a WIN WIN for both our DOG and POTENTIAL FAMILY.
