This morning, I was doing some reading on the couch when I heard some rustling outside the front door. The cat heard it too, and was freaking out (as she does...because she's batshit crazy), so I opened the door and looked outside.
See what I found? This poor, pitiful, super skinny dog!
She was shaking horribly (it was a cold morning) and was really skittish, she wouldn't come anywhere near us. So we dug out a bag of cheap catfood and poured her out a little pile, which she quickly gobbled up. We've since gotten dog food and a bowl of water for her, which we put on the porch.
She's finally let us get near enough to pet her, and even nuzzled our hands! She's breaking my heart, so adorable and badly cared for. So we're getting her some flea medication, and scheduling a vet visit. I just hope nothing too serious is wrong with her (she's limping), and that it's not going to cost an arm and a leg to get her in good health.
What do you think? Do you think I'm crazy for taking her in? I know it's going to be a lot more work, but she needs love so badly. I'd love to hear your thoughts, or adoption stories!
