About 'BALI'

Courtesy Posting: SAN FRANCISCO, CA (N CAL)- ID #A529294 - SAN FRANCISCO ANIMAL CARE AND CONTROL -'BALI'- A SWEET YOUNG MOMMA CHOW DUMPED AFTER BEING BRED, STILL LACTATING! X URGENT -SHELTER ASKING FOR RESCUE ASAP AT THIS VERY FULL SHELTER- AT RISK TO BE EUTHANIZED SOON DUE TO SPACE - DOG TESTED, AND MAY ALSO BE OK WITH CATS RESCUE ONLY-NEEDS A CHOW SAVVY FOSTER OR FOSTER TO ADOPT and RESCUE ASAP, although CHOW SAVVY PRE-APPROVED HOMES MAY ALSO BE CONSIDERED FOR ADOPTION. Pls contact Robin for more details. We are in urgent need of finding a chow savvy home and or foster and rescue for this beautiful cream chow girl Bali who was dumped after having puppies, and still lactating. There is also a second female chow (Kona ID A529304 who is blue) who was dumped at this shelter, who can be rescued, fostered and or adopted separately, or together. The shelter told us, ' Bali and Kona are each about two years old. Bali is a beautiful, petite little cream and Kona is a lovely little blue girl. Bali was picked up as a stray last night and when we made contact with the owner on her chip, he opted to surrender her, stating she had medical needs. He also decided to bring in Kona for euthanasia, citing medical. Heartbreakingly, there's nothing wrong with these girls. They were used for breeding --and are actively lactating--and then left with us. Both Bali and Kona are thin and their coats could sorely use some care, but aside from that they are in good health. Sadly, the poor dogs seemed to be used to make money from selling their the puppies, and then they were discarded. They currently weigh only 38 lbs with milk as both are underweight. Although the dogs are currently Rescue only, the shelter did say, 'I was really impressed with how tender and gentle both of these girls are, despite not having a lot of reasons to be. 'Furthermore, the shelter added, 'it looks like Kona and Bali previously lived with other dogs, including a male Chow (obviously) and some Frenchies, and a few cats. When I did Bali's cat test today, I could barely get her to acknowledge the kitty, and she was a typical Chow on her dog testing too - exchanged pleasantries, then shrugged and walked away. Both of these gals are quiet and gentle and very typical of their breed.' Unfortunately, the shelter also told us, 'we are completely at capacity and out of open kennels here, so time-- that increasingly rare and precious thing-- is sadly limited. We're looking for rescue for these ladies not just because they are fearful and in need of good care beyond the scope of what we can provide, but because we do not have the staffing or the capability to triage fosters and potential adopters for them. ' The shelter however did let us know that they will consider adopters who we can pre-screen, but asked that they contact us, not the shelter first. If you are interested in fostering, fostering to adopt, or helping Bali (and or Kona) some other way (ie.,pledging for her/their medical or rescue, transport, etc), please contact [email protected] or Southern California Chow Chow Rescue Network who is trying to find placement asap, and can try to pair fosters or interested parties with a willing rescue group. Rescue groups may contact the shelter directly by calling (628) 652-8855 (Paula) or (628) 652-8853 (Kathryn) or the Main: (415) 554-6364 as well as emailing them at [email protected] and or [email protected] If you are chow savvy and want to adopt, please contact us first to see if we can get approval from the shelter. Adopters should not contact the shelter directly though. The dogs can/would be spayed for an adopter.
