Molly: a very special puppy needs a very special foster home
Molly has rickets
Meet Molly, a German Shepherd/collie/Great Pyrenees mix. This little girl is 12 weeks old and has some significant health hurdles. Molly came in to rescue with her Mom and both had suffered terrible malnutrition. As a result, Molly has rickets and her front legs are deformed. She also has demodectic mange (not contagious) and her poor little autoimmune system is struggling to get her healthy. Molly is slated to see a surgeon to address her front legs. She needs a foster home in Tennessee that can manage a puppy who requires care. She is very sweet, outgoing and friendly, but she is likely facing surgery. If you are interested and can help, please email Tina at tina@bigfluffydogs.com.

That is so sad:( I have never heard of a dog with rickets and young. The mom must not have been had enough to eat and for her to nurse just made her sicker. The mange she has can kill them if it gets systemic. Poor Baby!
