Thelma and Louise are ready for their forever home or homes. These girls have been through a lot. Only part of their story we know for certain. They were found earlier this month in poor condition. They had many vet visits and Louise had emergency surgery to remove a foreign object from her stomach. Louise has undergone a refeeding routine for the past 2 and a half weeks and has successfully gained 8 healthy pounds. Thelma also gained 8 healthy pounds! Happy to say the girls have made close to full recoveries.
Louise is a chocolate lab mix (maybe boxer/pit). She is the senior of the two. She is estimated about 10 years old. She will need light supervision, for not letting her stretch or pull her incision. It is almost healed completely. She is also on medicated drops for her ears (they were quite infected). She was vaccinated, dewormed, and is parvo negative. She is just under 60lbs. Louise is one of the sweetest dogs you will ever meet and so full of love! She will definitely steal some kisses. She gets so excited when she sees you that she will forget to keep all paws on the ground sometimes. Very well trained. No accidents and crate trained. Walks good on a leash.
Thelma is a beautiful reverse tiger stripe brindle (maybe lab/boxer/pit mix). She is the pup of the two. She is estimated between 2 and 4 years old. She has a cleaner bill of health. She has scarring under her neck but it is healed along with a round of antibiotics. She was vaccinated, dewormed, and is parvo negative. She is right at 60 lbs. Thelma is a big puppy that still loves all the attention along with kisses and cuddles. She is still in training. Only a couple accidents until on a consistent schedule. Mainly at night, no accidents inside crate though. A regular wire crate needs a little reinforcement then it will keep this girl safely inside. She loves to be the leader when on a leash. And just like Louise, she gets so excited when she sees you and sometimes forgets to keep all paws on the ground.
Due to the immense vet care that has been provided and some that is ongoing, we are requesting vet reference from potential adopters.
When Thelma and Louise were first found, they were taken instantly to be scanned for a microchip. No chips were found. They were searched very thoroughly (we know they can move).
There was help from ODAAT and some very nice people online who donated towards vet bills. All help was very appreciated! Now they are ready for their next step in their journey.
We have been in contact with many rescues, shelters, and fosters in a 60 miles radius to no avail. (Not kill shelters though) Even out of state. Trying to get these 2 wonderful dogs the best start to a forever home. Everyone everywhere is full, overflowing even, with pets that need homes.
The girls do not necessarily need to be homed together (Thelma would prefer together, but Louise would be fine either way.)
They have only been around adults and each other. Thelma was scared and skittish when trying to meet another big dog. Neither have been around cats, small dogs/other small pets, or young children. They both ride great in a vehicle. They are very protective of whoever is inside of that vehicle. They are energetic and love walks also.
We cannot continue to keep them and are desperately trying to find them the perfect home.
Right now they are safe and warm and happily fed. However, they would be so much happier with people to call their very own.
