Matted homeless dog wouldn't let anyone touch her for over two years!!!

Abby was abandoned in the desert and lived alone for two years. Many people had attempted to save her, but she wouldn't let anyone touch her. 

Loreta Frankonyte, JoAnn Wiltz and I headed out to a mobile home park in the desert of California, about 2.5 hours east of Los Angeles. A kind and loving neighbor had been feeding the dog for over two years, but she told us that during this whole time, she wasn't able to ever get close enough to touch Abby.

Please consider making a small gift which allows us to be ready for immediate action when emergencies occur.

I was very lucky to have such an amazing team with me, and Abby is really lucky that Hope For Paws was called for this mission 🥰
