We learned about Rory when her "owner" asked us to take her. With zero room in boarding, a volunteer went to visit her and see about working her in when we could. What she found was shocking - a beautiful young dog tied on a cable, people afraid of her, she wasn't eating, she wore a shock collar and at night, they scotch taped her mouth shut so she couldn't bark. We dropped everything and took her immediately. The only positive thing we can say is that at least the people did reach out to rescue.

Rory went right into a foster home where there are multiple dogs and fit right in. Rory loves everyone. She is tall, elegant and a little silly. She wants to play badly and has shown an affinity for toys and balls. She is very affectionate and a pretty well adjusted dog given her background. We think she'll be cat friendly, we know she is great with kids.

Rory is 17 months old and will make a great addition to any family.
