We are Once Again Amazed by the Resiliency of Animals!

Sweet Maybelline joined our program skinny as a bean and missing more than three-quarters of her beautiful coat. But despite everything, she is hungry, happy, gentle, social, and full of all the wonderful personality traits you’d expect from a Great Pyrenees.

Now, the makeover begins! Medicated baths, preventatives for her mange, and a steady, consistent feeding program are all part of the plan. With a little time, a lot of TLC, and plenty of good meals, we expect this girl to fill out, grow back her Snow White coat, and become the glowing movie star we know she can be!

Want to be part of Maybelline’s comeback story? Consider making a donation toward her care or simply sharing her story. Together, we can give this sweet girl the fresh start she deserves.

Pet of The Week

Boyfriend

Hey handsome!

We just can’t resist this guy’s good looks and sweet temperament. Originally a resident horse barn ‘farrier,’ Boyfriend needed a little convincing to leave his working days behind him and join the good life.

In all seriousness, a friend and veterinarian of SNIPSA found this guy living on his own and knew she had to help him. Luring him in with treats and sweet talk, Dr. D was able to bring him into our program for a proper vetting, neutering, and to receive the attention he deserved.

He’s been becoming a pet ever since! In fact, his foster reports: He goes into the kennel nicely, has had no accidents in the house, and walks well on a leash.

She also adds that he gets along with the whole family, likes young kids, and does well with other dogs. He loves to be outside but enjoys the AC; when he’s hot, he will stand at the door and “ask” to come inside!

His foster also mentioned that they are patiently working on how he misses the family when they are gone. They found that good exercise is a stress reliever for this guy! After all, what Great Pyrenees doesn’t like to roam the great outdoors? While he has made tremendous strides in being a social, loving dog, he will need a patient owner willing to continue working with him to be the perfect Boyfriend. If you think he could be your perfect match, fill out your application for him today!
