SPECIAL NEEDS - See Notes

12th November 2023: After three years living in our facility, Diamond has now moved to NY with Out of the Pits Rescue, Albany, NY who are foster based. It is bittersweet because after three years we have grown to love her but so happy she is now in a home environment. She has so much personality and adapts so well. Finally a rescue that was willing to take a chance on her with her special food and a little age on her. We tried for so long to find her a home but had no luck. This is one special girl that so deserves a good life.

Notes: Diamond is all smiles and then closes her eyes to make a wish for a forever home. She has been at the shelter for so long. She has food allergies and has to have special food and takes Apoquel once a day to help control her allergies. She is around 9 years old now but is still such a good sport about everything. She was even a champ at letting me trim her nails even after I put that "skirt" around her neck. Diamond has been with us since October 2020. She still has the most outgoing and loving personality. When she came in she was skin and bones with horrible skin and had a rope tied around her waist. She is an outstanding girl that is house trained and has a huge personality. She does fine with other dogs but is not a huge fan of dogs that jump all over her. Diamond is spayed, current on vaccinations, and has been treated for her heartworms. Diamond walks well on leash, is house trained. If you would like to donate to her continued specialized food and daily meds, it would be greatly appreciated.

Adoption fee is $175

ONE BY ONE One by one, they pass by my cage Too old, too worn, too broken, they say Way past his time, he can’t run and play They shake their heads and go on their way A little old man, arthritic and sore It seems that I am wanted no more I once had a home, I once had a bed A place that was warm, and where I was fed Now my muzzle is grey, and my eyes slowly fail Who wants a dog so old and so frail? My family decided I didn’t belong I got in their way, my attitude wrong Now I sit in this kennel, where day after day The younger ones are chosen and taken away When I had come to the end of my rope You saw my face and again I knew hope You saw past the grey, the legs wobbly with age And felt I deserved life beyond this cage You took me home, gave me food and a bed You gently stroked my poor tired head We snuggle and play, you talk to me low You love me so dearly, and make sure I know Although I have lived most of my life with another You outshine them with a love so much stronger I promise to return all the love I can give To you my dear friend, as long as I live I may be with you for a week, or for years We will share many smiles, and a few tears When the time comes, that God deems I must leave I know you will cry and your heart it will grieve When I arrive at the Bridge all brand new My thoughts and my heart will still be with you And I will brag to all who will hear Of the person who made my last days so dear.
