Hope

Sweet Hope arrived into rescue after someone tried to “dock” her tail by tying twine tightly around it, thinking it would fall off. It didn’t. Hope’s tail was badly infected from the attempt and we are working hard to save it. So far so good. Despite the neglect she has faced, the first thing she does is wag her battered tail when she meets someone. She is currently in a foster home with 4 other dogs and adjusting well. She’s never had an opportunity to “just be a dog.” Hope is gentle, sweet and somewhat reserved. She needs a home where she can receive lots of positive care and affection (she looooves to snuggle!) She loves her walks, car rides, being outdoors, and curling up near her person. We prefer a home with kids 8+ because we don’t know her history…however she is fine with everyone she has met. If you think that you are Hope’s special person or family, please fill out an online application.
