JANESSA – A1036557
6-1-2015 Brooklyn Rescue: ***SAFE*** Pulled by Staten Island Hope- Donation website: http://www.statenislandhoperescue.org/ Please honor your pledges:
**SAFE 06/01/15** Janessa is a spayed 4-year-old sweetie who loved her former owners more than anything, even more than her toys. How did they repay that affection? Pretty much in the way you’d expect: they allowed her to endure a large wound on her right hind leg for who-knows-how-long, they watched her body struggle to heal that out and drop weight in the process, and when that got too boring? They brought her to the shelter because of “pet health.” Janessa has a super AVERAGE rating and has lived in a veritable petting zoo that included 6 dogs and a rabbit. You know this girl deserves WAY more than the horrible death she is scheduled for, tomorrow. Please advocate fiercely for JANESSA, tonight!

At home Janessa had free access to the outdoors and lets herself outside to eliminate but will not wander far. Behavior Janessa sometimes eliminates in the house but this is a recent behavior that might be attributed to pain from an untreated unspecified medical condition. Janessa struggles for bathing and nail trims but likes to be brushed. Janessa can be weary of strangers. For a new family to know Janessa had toys but was indifferent to them, she most enjoyed playing with her human family. Owner reports she is both gentle and exuberant for play with them and follow them around when they are home. Janessa did have a stratching post made of carpet but it did not stand very firmly and she preferred to scratch the base of the sofa. Janessa likes both wet and dry food. Upon intake Janessa was receptive to introduction and loose for handling. Counselor was able to scan for microchip (negative) collar and photograph.
