Compassionate Texas Girl Rescues Adorable Pup From Euthanasia

Date:

Having been a proud dog owner in the past, I must admit that the loss of my furry friend brought me deep sorrow. It’s a heart-wrenching experience that many who have loved a dog can relate to.

Although the hurt may feel perpetual, time has a way of mending broken hearts. Some individuals move on but choose never to adopt again.

On the other hand, many opt to rescue dogs once more and provide them the love they so desperately need. This personal choice varies, yet the affection we hold for our cherished canine companions remains consistent.

Whitney is someone who has been through a similar ordeal; she recently lost her dog and felt it was time to take in another pup in need.

When Whitney chose to foster again, she examined the euthanasia list to identify which dogs were in the greatest need of her assistance.

That’s when Glinda caught her eye. Adorable and reminiscent of Luna, her late dog, Whitney felt a strong connection and knew Glinda deserved a loving foster home.

Upon visiting the Texas shelter, she was greeted warmly by Glinda, who appeared delighted. Any initial hesitation quickly faded as Whitney approached her.

They greeted each other with warmth and instantly formed a bond. The anxious demeanor Glinda initially showed transitioned into a joyful smile filled with excitement.

Upon closer inspection, Whitney noticed that Glinda was unwell and would require medical attention before going to her foster home.

Due to overbreeding, the poor pup faced numerous health challenges. Fortunately, she now had someone who would support her through the healing process.

Once her health issues were addressed, it was time for Glinda to step into her new foster home in Texas.

She radiated happiness upon her arrival, eager to explore every nook and cranny of her fresh surroundings.

Whitney dedicated herself to ensuring Glinda felt secure and comfortable, fostering her recovery and allowing her to savor life until ready for adoption.

Glinda seemed delighted to be in the presence of someone who offered her the affection and care she genuinely deserved. This was Whitney’s greatest hope for her.

As time passed, Glinda made remarkable strides in her recovery. It became her moment to search for a forever family. She was placed on an adoption list, patiently awaiting her new home.

While it’s uncertain if she has already found her perfect match, her safety remains paramount, surrounded by her compassionate rescuers.

I met a dog this weekend on the euthanasia list that reminded me of my heart dog, Luna. Luna was the reason why I started doing rescue over a dozen years ago. Meet Glinda, a mama dog who found herself on the euthanasia list due to lack of space as well as clear medical issues in her mammary area, likely due to overbreeding. She is a medium-sized, gray-muzzled, shy, black with brown speckles kind of dog. Well, I knew immediately that she was coming to my house. She got the surgery she needed to remove multiple masses, and is now safe at home with me recovering. She tinkles when she sees me so I know we are going to have a good time here! I can’t wait to share her journey with you guys. This one is for you, Luna ❤️ Follow @whitneysdogs for more foster glow-ups! #dogrescue #shelterovercapacity #helpingshelterdogs #fosteringsaveslives #heartsandbonesrescue
