Badly Neglected Dog Needs A Home

Please consider opening your home and heart to this badly neglected dog.

On December 6, 2010, Stratford Animal Control picked up "Faith," a stray dog who was severely emaciated and badly infected with mange.

Through the generosity of many public and private donations to the Stratford Animal Rescue Society, "Faith" has been able to remain at a local animal hospital to receive the medical care that she needed. Faith has made a recovery from the deeply infected mange condition and she has gained some weight but her recovery has gone as far as it could in a kennel environment.

She is currently residing in a home with a dog trainer who has this to say about her: "She is bright, loving and faithful. That is why her name is so fitting. Despite all the hardships she has endured during her young life, she is just the most loving, happy, playful puppy. She wants nothing more than to be your friend and be with you always. She is intelligent, obedient, loves other dogs, and gets along great with cats. She is just a bundle of pure joy and happiness. She lavishes kisses on and surrounds you with love and faith."

The Stratford Animal Rescue Society is looking for a qualified adopter to give "Faith" her forever home.

To inquire about adoption, please email: stfdanimalrescue@yahoo.com

Please consider making a tax-deductible donation to help Save the Animals Rescue Society (STARS) pay for her care:
