Your Pet's Story or Bio (How was your pet rescued? Any cute tricks?)
Ellie (fka Petals) was a 12 year old owner surrender we rescued from Carson Shelter on July 9th, 2014. Her previous owner said she was getting too old. Ellie was obviously bred several times, was very weak, thin, and had very bad cataracts.

After being cared for at Lindsey Veterinary Clinic, we learned that she had diabetes, but otherwise seemed quite healthy! After starting her on insulin and feeding her very high quality food, she is starting to get some pep back in her step! She loves to wrestle with her new brother Spanky.

Saving Ellie's life was possible because Ron Gaza and his pups, Grace and Spanky, offered to be her Family on the day we shared interest in her. Ellie gets to be the new baby in the house now!
