Critter Details

Go to our official websiteZoey has a special story.  Like so many pets in PR, Zoey was abandoned to live on the streets.  When our rescuer was first called to her aid, she was initially asked to do a TNR, (trap, neuter, release) but discovered Zoey already had a sterilization tattoo. After getting her vaccinated, she was returned to the street where she was being fed on a rescuer’s feeding route.  Black dogs are particularly difficult to place so life on the streets was all she was offered. However, she ended up at a school. (Many dogs are abandoned at schools as the children eat outside in open courtyards and people assume the dogs will be fed and loved there.  School Administration is left to deal with the problems.)  Last summer our rescuer was called to the school due to issues with some dogs, and that’s when she found Zoey again, but this time very skinny and deteriorated so she rescued her for good. She was given Bordetella, she tested negative on both 4DX and fecal tests, and has been in foster in PR ever since.  Fast forward a year, our rescuer is very hopeful Zoey can find a loving home in the States and free up a spot for her to rescue more.  The vet estimates Zoey to be 3-4 years old. Zoey is wonderful with other dogs, kids, and even cats (though she tends to chase them at first). Zoey weighs only 28 lbs.  She is good on a leash and submissive to others.  Please put in an application to meet this special girl.
