Meet SCARLETT Scarlett was on the euthanasia list and had already been granted three extensions…she had run out of time! She arrived at the shelter after what appears to have been a very hard life. Having had multiple litters, she was emaciated, in pain, and understandably scared. The shelter can be overwhelming for any dog, but especially for one who has never known true safety or comfort. And yet… Scarlett chose kindness. Despite everything she has endured, she is gentle, sweet, and lovable. Her foster family describes her as a happy, affectionate girl who loves playing with the other dogs and absolutely adores her people. She is a total love bug who will roll right over for belly rubs any chance she gets. This darling girl has put on some healthy weight and the pain medications are giving her much needed relief. Scarlett is a beautiful Cane Corso, approximately 4 years old, with so much love to give. As part of her initial care, X-rays revealed some orthopedic abnormalities. We have an appointment coming up with an orthopedic specialist this week, where we can better understand what she needs and create the best plan for her moving forward. She would do best with a family who can offer patience, love, and a commitment to her continued care as we learn more about what she may need. If you would like to be considered for SCARLETT, our adoption process and application is on our website at www.aarflove.org. Please note: We receive many wonderful applications and unfortunately cannot respond to everyone. If we believe you're a potential match, we will reach out directly. Thank you for understanding and for supporting rescue! Part of Scarlett's adoption fee is being sponsored by our Angel Fund for the perfect applicant.
