One dogs story.......

Around Tucson and the country, thousands of pets are abandoned, lost or even abused. This is the story of just one dog, who because of her past has lost all trust in anything around her.....she is just one of many who need help. This is has been a journey for everyone of her fans and all the people who have tried to help "Bring River Home"

River-The wash dog! Before rescue.

About "River"

River was fisrt noticed by a person passing by the area, she was unable to catch her, but posted her on Craigslist, from there, more sightings occured, and a group of people got together to make a plan to save her! She lives in the Rillito River, at first she was just the "wash dog" but now is known by many as "River"



She is a beautiful Shepard mix, wearing a collar, she has been living in the same area since at least November 2009, she is a very curious girl, loves to watch people and other dogs, just doesnt like to be approached. She will come to some but always keeps some distance. She loves treats and food.



We dont know her past story, she could be someones lost pet,or another dumped dog?All we know is we would like to see her in a safer enviroment, hopefully a loving home.



RIVER WAS RESCUED 2/13/10

Thanks Danielle, Duet, and Mark!

HAPPY VALENTINES WEEKEND!

What a perfect time, to say.....RIVER IS FINALLY SAFE!!! A big thank you to Danielle and Mark!!!!!! We are so happy, she is currently with Mark in a very safe place, she is doing REALLY well, relaxed, and very calm, she is has already been showered with gifts and food!

She will be seeing the vet sometime this week, for a complete check up! Thank you Catalina Pet Hospital!

She seems very healthy, we got her tight little collar off, and now we will start getting used to her having a harness on and learning to walk on a leash! There is lots of things she needs to learn!

I will update with some pictures soon!
Thank you to everyone!
