From pitiful to pampered in a matter of months. Rosa was rescued from a cruelty case in November. She was skin and bones. Despite everything, she showed she still had trust in humans and would try to crawl in your lap and curl up like a dog a quarter of her size!
Craig saw Rosa at one of our adoption events and convinced Lauriel they COULD foster a pit bull (they already have two at home). After a couple of weeks our foster coordinator called to remind the couple to bring Rosa to our next adoption event.

Congratulations to Rosa for finding new parents who’ll treat her like she always deserved to be treated! Thank you for adopting!!!
