This is a story about Lima, a pit bull that ended up at the Fremont Animal shelter at 8 years old.
Lima used to help a little girl read and was her therapy dog, but the family fell on hard times and Lima went to the shelter.
A senior pit bull in the shelter doesn’t really stand a chance to make it out alive. BUT one of Muttville’s rescue partners, Nancy, heard about Lima’s story. And once Muttville heard it, we had to save her!!
Lima is still spreading joy to everyone she meets.
From her new mom, Peggy:
I LOVE Lima. She’s doing great it’s like she was always here.
Thank you for the best dog in the whole wide world, she’s the princess and we all love her, the cats didn’t skip a beat around her and Princess the kitty is already after her for love. Lima is very gentle with everyone and she seems very happy.
Thank’s again I’m so very very happy to have her.
It’s never too late for a new beginning!
