Carmella

Sometimes a dog gets dropped at the pound that "just can't be helped." Often it's a black dog, and often it's an old dog. It's a dog that's sick. It's a dog that has everything in the world going against it.

It usually gets euthanized as soon as it walks in the door and doesn't get thought of again.

I got one!

Carmella is an old black Dane who was used way too many times for breeding. She's only about six years old but looks like she's twelve. She has heartworms. She's thirty pounds underweight. For those who know my dogs, she should be Julie-size but she weighs less than Jackson.

She has entropian in both eyes from being so undernourished. She coughs a lot from the heartworms but she likes to play. She has pressure sores on all her joints from laying on hard surfaces.

Her personality is gorgeous.

She's about to get a whole lot better than she is.
