There is a dog with special needs at the Animal Shelter that needs a forever home very soon. Her name is Precious. She is a medium sized dog who has been there since late November. She was surrendered from her previous owner due to abuse/neglect. The staff at the Allen Animal Shelter have a soft spot for her because she is a very sweet dog. It turns out that Precious is heartworm positive and is in need of treatment. She has been on a heartworm preventative, but that hasn't helped. They are looking for someone who is willing to give her a forever home, however long that will be, and the Allen Animal Shelter will assist with the cost of the treatment. They are working with Dr. Coffman at the Allen Veterinary Hospital and may go ahead and get her spayed at their cost if that will help get her adopted. She has been caged for too long (showing some signs of depression) and needs a yard where she can run and play (after her heartworm treatment is complete) and be with a family. She loves to play fetch, loves her treats and would love to go for a walk with you. Please contact the staff at the Allen Animal Shelter if you are interested in giving Precious her forever home. Currently, there is no picture posted of Precious, so you would need to go to the Shelter to visit her. Don't wait too long. They are going to make a decision by next Friday.

Denise,
She's not showing up on the Petfinder listing. Has she already been adopted, or is my link just acting up?
Never mind, I just read the end of your post where you said there's no photo of her on the site!

That's okay. It was a long post. Hopefully, this will help her find a good home. I'm not sure what kind of a mix dog she is, but she is about knee-high to me (I'm just over 5'6") and might have some lab and terrier in her? Her coat is kind of a brown/orange. When I saw her today, I gave her a treat from the shelter's treat jar and she seemed pretty happy with that! Her ears really perked up.

I was at the shelter last week taking care of some pet registrations and asked about Precious. She is undergoing heartworm treatment and when she is better, she will be ready for a new home!
