Rachel was one of four dogs from a Missouri breeder. Rachel is in terrible shape.

She has pneumonia. She is getting antibiotics and nebulizer treatments to combat it.

Her feet are splayed from a lifetime of living on wire. She has no muscle mass to support the ligaments and tendons, which is also a direct result of life in a small wire cage without exercise or playtime.

Rachel is malnourished and emaciated. She weighs only 12 pounds.

It appears that Rachel was allowed to free whelp multiple times, rather than have c-sections. As a consequence, her enlarged vulva is causing urinary continence problems.

Rachel has probably never received any dental care. She has only two upper canine teeth. Because she has no teeth in her lower jaw, her tongue hangs out of her mouth.

If you'd like to be part of her healing process, just click on her photo. Leave her a message of encouragement and support. She needs all the love she can get!
