July, who goes by Julie, arrived at the rescue the day after the 4th of July, tired, dirty, and alone. Despite no microchip or tags, it was clear she’d been through a lot and needed help fast. She has chronic dry eye in her right eye and needs daily drops plus a gentle clean with a warm washcloth. Julie’s heart has a stage 3 condition out of 6, and there are upcoming visits scheduled with a cardiologist and a specialist to manage her gallbladder, though appointments are tough to arrange. While her health issues aren’t obvious at first glance, our vet highlighted the need for attentive care. Julie’s attitude shows in her diva style with other dogs, but she warms up wonderfully to people and soaks up affection. Senior dogs like her deserve that extra bit of comfort and routine. Julie is hoping for someone to open their home for permanent fostering or adoption—she’s earned a soft place to land. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
