@thedogsneedourhelp: 🩷Update 10/20: in a foster-to-adopt home 🩷 🚨SPRING IS DECLINING RAPIDLY & URGENTLY NEEDS RESCUE🚨 💔 Spring has only been here for 6 days & she is already struggling so badly that she desperately needs out. This gorgeous Australian Shepherd girl is terrified, overwhelmed, & spinning in circles nonstop. She has severe kennel stress. This environment is clearly taking a toll on her. Spring came in with Oakley, an injured Pittie who was scheduled for euthanasia & is still in need. When staff carried Oakley to the vehicle, Spring refused to leave his side & followed them all the way there. She was so loyal to her friend, & now they’re separated in different kennels while Oakley deals with his injury. I can’t imagine how frightening this must be for her. She’s already scared of people & everything happening around her, & now the dog she was clinging to for comfort is gone from her side. She seems completely overwhelmed by the noise, confinement, & stress of the shelter. Spring is extremely skittish & fearful, but she has NOT shown aggression. She’s simply terrified. Unfortunately, her fear is making it difficult for staff to handle her, & she hasn’t even been able to receive her initial shots or routine medical yet. She needs an experienced rescue & a committed local foster who can give her a quiet, secure environment where she can decompress. She will need patience, gentle handling, & time to learn that she is safe. Based on her bond with Oakley, she will likely do well with other dogs, but she will need careful intros. Spring shouldn’t be deteriorating mentally in a kennel after less than a week. She needs help NOW before she loses her life due to lack of quality.
