Senior "Molly" dumped / abandoned, Shreveport, LA *Adopted*

New postby Wendy M on Wed Jul 25, 2012 7:42 pm

Reading old Molly's story made my heart ache for her. The PF page describes how depressed she was after her owner abandoned her - poor confused old dog. How can anyone be so heartless to do this to an animal who has been your faithful companion for years? So very sad. I post her here for possible adoption/foster, as her chances are slim that either will ever happen. :-(

Molly’s owner, Bettye Harrell, contacted Animal Welfare, Inc. and begged us to help her. She was going into the hospital for 1-2 weeks for treatment and there was nobody to take care of her beloved Molly while she would be in the hospital. Animal Welfare, Inc. agreed to board Molly for the 1-2 weeks. However, 1 ½ weeks later, Bettye Harrell called the boarding clinic and told the lady that worked there that she was out of the hospital and was home in Lafayette, LA and had decided she no longer wanted her dog - Molly. She said to do “whatever” with her. She didn’t even have the decency to call Animal Welfare, Inc. and tell us personally. She also never returned any of our calls to her. Molly has been vetted and is looking for a foster or permanent home to live the rest of her life with love and patience and compassion. Molly is about 12 years old, heartworm negative, and has arthritis. She has been started on medicine and vitamins for the arthritis. She is going to have good days and bad days - just like us older humans. If you have an extra spot in your heart and home, please fill out an application to foster / adopt Molly. Animal Welfare, Inc. will cover her medicines for her time left with us. You can fill out the application on line or call and we can mail you a paper application.

Poor Molly. My first dog was also a Molly and senior. Breaks my heart. She's so pretty too.

From what I have been able to find out, she is in a kennel/boarding situation and very despondant. They are looking for a foster or adoptive home environment for old Molly, as she is not doing well in boarding.

I first read about Molly back in January -- has she been in boarding all this time? I hope she finds a foster home soon. No senior would do well in a kennel for that long.

Marcia,
I amy have someone who is interested in Molly. Is her time limited or how long does she have? I wish I had room for her, but it is hard to feed the ones I have. Please let me know about her time situation.

I email shelter today. She is being boarded at a vet's office. I have a friend that wanted to adopt her, but she lives in NY and the lady said she didn't think she would make the long transport. Needs someone closer by to adopt her. Poor old girl just needs a quiet place to spend what time she has left.

Has anyone contacted Jill at Ewenity Farms in Bradenton, FL? She has a big soft spot for the seniors and has helped many like Molly.
