Zelda

Rescued by Lindy Turner

Zelda (not her real name) but the name she now has for life, was brought in as a stray.  After her five days were up at the shelter she was transferred to the humane society where she spent another five days until Wendy was called.  This poor old girl looked so sad it made her want to cry.  Obviously she had belonged to someone at one time.  She was in a very short clip but she was very dirty and oily and she smelled really bad.  Someone had either given her up or lost her and didn’t know how to get her back or didn’t want her back – we’ll never know. 

Zelda was given a health check and given her shots.  She was already spayed but she did get the few teeth she had cleaned.  After a few days at the vet she had to be given fluids because she was dehydrated but she perked up after that and she was running and hopping around.  She was bathed and then ready for adoption. 

The older girl was going to be hard to place.  It’s not often someone is willing to take on a girl of 9 or 10 (her new Mom is rather sure she’s 10+) but thanks to Lindy she has a home for the rest of her life.  This little lady is soooo sweet and she just wants to please and she will let you do anything with her.  She is a little shy but who wouldn’t be after being abandoned but she is adjusting well in her new home. 

Lindy was asked a number of times, are you sure?  Adopting two dogs at the same time when you already have two at home, are you nuts.  She was and is sure. She said that she needed to adopt Zelda because she was not going to be easy to place. Her king size bed is now too small but it’s filled with love from four-legged “kids” who have a Mom with the biggest heart in the world.  Our hats are off to you Lindy.  Thank you so much for taking on these two darlings from the street.
