About Snow White

Snow White is a resilient soul looking for her forever home. This lovely mixed-breed girl, about 5 years old, has faced some tough times, but you’d never guess it from her gentle spirit. Coming to us from Alabama, she battled heartworm disease and had to have her front left leg amputated due to an old injury, yet she remains full of love and trust. After a long transport, she amazed us all with her sweet nature, resting her chin on a staff member during a bath, soaking up affection instead of feeling overwhelmed. Despite having only three legs, Snow White is ready to embrace life with open paws. She needs a little help shedding some weight to ensure healthy movement and comfort moving forward. As you help her along, you will be rewarded with laughter and joy from this sweet girl who wants nothing more than a family to call her own. She deserves soft beds, sunny days, and all the love you can give. Could you be the one to give her the fairy tale ending she's been waiting for? Snow White's adoption fee is $300. She is spayed, up to date on core vaccines, and heartworm negative.
