Meet Miss Pinky!
A senior little lady who was found in a Phoenix parking lot on a 115-degree day during the summer of 2023.
Her background is unknown. What we do know is when she was found she was underfed, her hair was severely matted, and she had poor dental hygiene. She was scared, but friendly and trusting. After a bath and a haircut, she was taken to the vet where almost all her front teeth had to be removed. After a month of recovery, she was ready for her furr-ever home.
When she was adopted, she had recurrent UTI’s. After a few more trips to the vet, it was discovered that she had severe crystals in her bladder. With antibiotics and prescription dog food, Miss Pinky was on the mend.
A year and a half later, Miss Pinky is a healthy and happy 11-year-old diva. Some of her favorite things are walks to the park or the nature preserve, meeting new people, seeing her dog buddies, car rides, eating and sleeping.
Who knew the perfect dog would be a senior rescue!
A Friendly Reminder Regarding Wildlife
We live in the beautiful Sonoran Desert and share our neighborhoods with the wildlife that has been here long before our homes. Coyotes, bobcats, javelinas, mountain lions, rattlesnakes, gila monsters, and birds of prey can pose a danger to humans and their pets. We must be aware of our surroundings and avoid confronting these animals. Maintain your distance and do not behave in a threatening manner. If you encounter a rattlesnake, please call 911 immediately to have it removed. Also, do not feed or supply water to wild animals since they may become more brazen.
