My Name is: Abbey, 5 years old
My Story: Before I knew what happened, I was pushed out of a vehicle onto a rural road alongside -25 in southern Colorado. It sped off leaving me there all alone, bewildered, and scared. Fortunately, an animal control officer picked me up and got me to a shelter where they took one look at me and remarked, “Girl, you are a mess.” I had a skin disease that caused me to lose most of the hair on my face and also patches on my legs and body. My ears were infected and sore. The small shelter I was at reached out to Safe Harbor, and we were all thrilled when they said, “Yes, we’ll take this sweet and gentle young lady.” I now have meds for my skin and ears, and my foster mom gives me medicated baths. It will be a while before my skin and ears are well, but thanks to Safe Harbor, I’m on my way!
