MSFR (Miniature Schnauzer & Friends Rescue) heard about the rough time I was having and rescued me from an LA county shelter- they just couldn’t turn me away. My physical condition was so bad that we decided not to post the pictures. There Peyton were bone deep sores on my hindquarters to pick me up. To look at me now, you and all of my legs. Based on the location would never guess that I was matted, dirty and type of the sores I had, the Vet told mess when MSFR rescued me.

Four months after I was rescued, confirmed that I had stones and the Vet the MFSR people found a home for me also found that I had 8 teeth that were but I was returned.
