Meet our patient of the day! This rambunctious little lamb was playing a little too hard and hurt her leg. She was an excellent patient

UPDATE: Chess HAS FOUND a loving home Chess is a beautiful, kind hearted 30 year old mare who lost her life long companion this morning in search of a new home.

Please share! **update** THANK YOU for sharing her story far and wide!! It’s been shared almost 250 times!!! ... (I have gotten a lot of messages and questions, and I want to ask that everyone PLEASE READ this write up and all the comments before you message asking questions or wanting to apply for Blanche. ) Our sweet girl has already had two potential adoptions fall through for her, so we are once again on the hunt for the perfect fit! Blanche is looking for a family who will love her exactly how she is, and promise to make her their first priority! She is 12 years old, so she won’t have a full life ahead of her, and that’s important that her people understand that, and just stay present to enjoy every day they are given with her. This poor girl has struggled and fought for everything in her life, and I want to leave those days far behind her. She deserves to be treated like the Queen she KNOWS she is! She is incredibly tender, warm, and cuddly with her people, but she rules other dogs with an iron fist.. So I think Blanche would prefer to be an only dog she can relax and not feel like she has control other pups and fight for attention. We will never know how much time she has left, but what I can tell you is how much love she has to give! She so desperately wants a human of her own, and to spend every moment with them! This girl is so obsessed with her people she doesn’t even need a leash! She will never choose to leave your side. She makes me laugh every day, and gives me her whole heart. So please consider making room for this sweet senior girl in your family, or help her find her family by sharing this post! #adopt #adoptable #rescue #rescuedog #yyj #yyjdogs #dogsofvictoria #dogsofinstagram #dogsofvictoriabc #vanisle #poodle #cockapoo #adoptme #mutt #adorable #oneye #senior #love #adorable #autumn
