Forever Fido Rescue hasn't added a story.
Oh sweet little Dakota. We first saw this poor soul at high kill SEAACA Shelter in Downey, as we were walking through the kennels, looking for the dogs that needed to get out urgently. Dakota was in the far back, and at first glance, you would think you were looking at a large dark rag or the bottom of a mop, but as we continued to stare, we realized this was actually a living and breathing animal. The sadness and pain that befell us led our rescue to pick up Dakota the following day, as we knew nobody would ever adopt her in that condition. We could see a sparkle and glimmer in her two hopeful eyes as we crouched down to try to find her face. Dakota then went on to our vet, where she received medication for kennel cough, irritated dry eyes, and a severe ear infection in her left ear. The amazing Jennifer Bunn spent hours and hours grooming her a few days later, which required her being shaved down. She was infested with fleas, which were crawling inside her eyes and nose. It was the worst we had ever seen! Her hair had old food, feces, urine, throw up and garbage in it that was stuck to her for years. She could barely stand up or walk before getting groomed. After her amazing transformation and years of dreaded up stinky fur coming off, Dakota was a new doggy! (To watch the video of her transformation, click here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r8POSVotL7Y)
We were so happy that this ever hopeful, goofy, sweet and super forgiving little munchkin was well on her way to a new life, comfortable for the first time in years! Then we noticed she began urinating often in small amounts, so after getting xrays and a full senior blood panel, we were told the sad news that Dakota has large bladder stones. After all she has been through, we were sad to find out she had further health issues. The vet also found a growth in her mouth, so a biopsy is required. We want to get Dakota all that she needs to be healthy and happy and move on to the forever home that she has always deserved. Please consider making a donation so that we can get her well on her path! She deserves it so much. Thank you, our dear, selfelss and compassionate friends for being here for Dakota!
