Molly, surrendered by her family at 14 years old 💔There is nothing more tragic than fragile seniors being separated from their family and ending up in a shelter environment. And Molly is breaking our hearts.

Molly's owners said they moved to a new apartment that doesn't allow dogs and they could no longer keep her.

She is a beautiful lady with sparkly eyes and she has a lot to say 🩷 She is vocal in telling us how she's feeling about her new life. Her owner said she is house trained, that her favorite activity is playing with her rope toy, she knows the sit command and that she used to sleep indoors.

At intake, medical noted that she was sensitive to touch, which is understandable at her age.  She has a stiff gait and is slow moving.

Her previous owners also said that she's not good with strangers but the multiple volunteers who have met her have not found that to be the case. She gets excited when being pet, she'll nuzzle your leg or push her head into you while receiving affection. She even patiently allowed her nails to be trimmed💕The playgroup team even noted that she "loves people". And we love her. 

She mingled, was very low energy, slightly sexually motivated but steerable with dogs. Given her age she's considered physically vulnerable and was kept in a smaller playgroup. 

The last place that a 14 year old dog should be is in a cold, loud, unsanitary shelter environment! For perspective, she is almost 90 years old in human years - just imagine❣️Molly desperately needs a soft, warm place to land. 

DM US is you can FOSTER! SHARE her story in hopes a RESCUE sees her! ADOPT responsibly if you can provide Molly with the medical care she will need, now and in the future.
