Abbey looking for a forever home!

On August 17, I posted about Abbey, a young female Doberman (mix?) who was sedated and on the euthanization table, but given a last minute second chance. I guess Last Hope Dobermans is the most perfect name for the Texas rescue organization!

That fragment of the Abbey story is a sad one, but the heroics of her pull from the table, and her transport to safety in Oklahoma for foster, is a lovely one. Her initial picture, the only view we had of her, was a sad one as well.

Doesn't she look so much better now? Smiling, with some weight on her. Seeing this picture of her make me so very happy. From the Last Hope Dobermans Rescue Facebook page:

Abbey is a 6 month old Doberman mix puppy.... she was pulled from the shelter in her final seconds of life, actually pulled OFF the euth table by a volunteer who begged for 2 more days. She is now in a OK foster home. She gets spayed next week and will be ready for her forever home! She loves other dogs, to play, is learning her leash manners, is crate trained. If you would like to adopt Abbey, please email DobeMomx2@yahoo.com
