Meet Birdie Apply to adopt Birdie today! https://form.jotform.com/241458405075153 Birdie’s story is one we’ll never fully know… but what we do know is that she has fought harder than most dogs ever should have to. She was found during the Houston freeze, trying to survive alone on the streets in the MLK area. Since coming into rescue, Birdie has shown us nothing but resilience despite the pain she’s likely lived with for a very long time. Birdie is approximately 2 years old, weighs 54 pounds, and is believed to be a German Shepherd/ lab mix. After extensive veterinary evaluations, she was diagnosed with severe bilateral hip dysplasia and osteoarthritis from old injuries likely left untreated for far too long. The good news? Birdie has already undergone her hip surgery and is now on the road to recovery. Despite everything she has endured, she continues to love people and soak up affection every chance she gets. Birdie is house trained, leash trained, crate trained, and absolutely loves children and humans of all ages. She loves car rides also! She is the type of dog that simply wants to be near her people and be included in the love of a family. She deserves more than survival. She deserves comfort. Stability. A soft bed. A family that sees beyond her scars and understands the incredible soul behind them. Birdie may not be the “perfect” dog on paper, but she is the kind of dog that changes your heart forever. We are committed to giving Birdie the best life possible and finding the right home that will continue showing her the love she always deserved.
