Back in January our director was contacted about a tiny 5 lb chi who had been injured in a car accident. HIs mom had been drinking and driving and had went to jail; Lil Charlie landed in the county shelter.
 They thought someone would come to get him but no one came.  Charlie had an ulcerated eye and also needed X-Rays.  Rural shelters do not have the means to treat serious injuries like his so little Charlie would be euthanized without a rescue stepping up. He had to have surgery to remove the eye and was in terrible pain. We immediately sent someone to get him and set up a vet appointment the next morning. 
Charlie had the eye surgically removed, had X-rays and was neutered the next am. He received basic vet care as well. 
We then arranged a permanent foster home where he could heal. His whole world had been turned upside down and he was not happy. Poor guy! 
Lil Charlie slowly started feeling better and started to get comfortable. It took him awhile to get used to having the blind spot and he can be a little snippy. He does not like to be picked up either so we had to find a patient family for the little tyke. 
The first several applicants passed on Charlie when they learned about his behavior. Miss Monna contacted us and said she was looking for a dog just like Charlie! She had even posted on Craigslist while searching. 
Charlie joined his new family last week and he is coming along quite well.! Monna has the patience and understands the special needs of lil Charlie. We are so thankful! 
Charlie, you will never be abandoned or hurt again! Thank you Amber and Oakland for fostering and transporting. Thank you Monna for being patient and adopting and not shopping!! 
Happy Life together!
