Leelas Rescue Story

Leela was abandoned on the streets. She must have been starving for some time because she was extremely hungry. She was caught by a volunteer of a TNR (Trap / Neuter / Return) rescue group. TNR rescue groups specialize in getting stray animals spayed and neutered and the animals are returned to their original location to live as homeless dogs and cats. TNR programs help with the overpopulation of unwanted animals. The volunteer caring for her loves her and didnt want to see her back on the streets. The volunteer reached out to an experienced international rescue organization to save her and some other puppies that are still too young to be released back to the streets. The founder of the rescue organization has over 160 dogs waiting for homes. She really does not have space for another dog. However, she could not bear to see them suffering on the streets. She agreed to take them home and give them a chance in life. Leela along with her 40 other buddies were all rescued and live together waiting for their own forever homes.

Leela had a thorough medical checkup. She had been spayed, vaccinated, microchip, and passed negative on her blood tests. Please give Leela a loving home where she will never be left behind again.
