Michigan - shy older border collie on death row

[bain_sidhe]

My heart aches for this sweetie. Our rescue group can't take her in because we have no foster homes available. The shelter worker we correspond with has gotten her a "stay of execution" until Monday... They're beyond full.

Their brief description:

Hello, I came to the shelter as a stray on 8-26-09 and will be up for adoption on 9-2-09. I am about 7-9 years of age and about 35 pounds. I am a little on the shy side (but today is my first day!). I love to be in the office with the shelter workers - they gave me treats! Please come and give me a chance! If you are interested in giving me a forever home please contact the Gladwin County Animal Shelter at 989-426-4579. If the office is closed please leave a message and someone will call you back the next business day. Thank you for looking and thinking adoption first!

If you can't help, please pass it on!

3. Yep, did that, got a nibble

I see her petfinder page has a "pending" on it, so I'm hopeful she'll get a reprieve!

2. I'll post her to my facebook acct, but I don't know anyone in Michigan

I wish I could do more to help.

4. Thank you for that!

There are 20 dogs there, all of them worthy of saving, but this little girl just reached into my heart and gave a mighty tug...

5. She may be shy but she don't look that shy. Bet it wouldn't take much to open up more.

6. Good news! Another rescue group is going to pull her!

She's safe!
