Jello

If you've been following Jello's journey since we first posted her weeks ago, you know she arrived heavily pregnant and in urgent need of a safe place to land. After securing a wonderful foster home, we took her to our vet for X-rays to check on her progress, but we were met with some difficult news. Jello was carrying nine puppies-an incredible strain on her tiny frame. Given her small size and the fact that she had already endured a previous litter at the homeless encampment where she was rescued, the medical consensus was clear: proceeding with the pregnancy posed a severe risk to her life. Between the high probability of birth complications, the potential for extreme nutritional deficiency, and the reality of finding around-the-clock volunteers for bottle-feeding, we had to make a heart-wrenching decision.
To ensure Jello had the chance at a long, healthy life, we moved forward with an emergency spay. While we did not make this choice lightly, we chose to prioritize the well-being of the sweet girl currently in our arms. Now recovered and spayed, Jello is thriving and showing us her true colors. At approximately 3 years old, she is an incredibly friendly, curious, and social soul who absolutely loves both people and other dogs. She is finally getting the chance to be the center of attention rather than a mother struggling to survive, and she is more than ready to find a forever home that will cherish her.
Jello is approx 3 years old and under 20lbs.
