PILGRIM'S PROGRESS:
|>Late last year, around Thanksgiving, we were contacted by our friends at
Valencia County Animal Control
about a cruelty case kiddo they had just taken custody of ❤ PILGRIM was chained his whole life (appx 9yrs) on the hottest of days & the coldest of nights. All alone....& regularly "attacked by other dogs". He was emaciated, covered in wounds all over his body (many fresh & many in different stages of healing) including trauma to his right eye which resulted in loss of vision. He suffered from Ehrlichia & Anaplasmosis as well as advanced periodontal disease & he was riddled with infection. PILGRIM is a very sweet #ElderBull who was tormented & horribly neglected 🙁 VCAC charged his people with Animal Cruelty, they were found guilty in court & were ordered to pay $800 to NMDOG in restitution. We hope they will never elect to get another dog again, but like we tell all of our kids...."Living well is the best revenge & its time to get busy".
We tended to all of PILGRIMS medical needs & held his paw during months of physical & emotional healing. We put his Christmas wishes on the NMDOG Giving Tree, we took him on TV as our #KRQE #PetOfTheWeek, he was featured as the
Quality Mazda
NMDOG of the Month, we LoVed & adored him, we let him nibble on our earlobes & we taught him good boy manners ❤ Despite all of his wonderful, #AdoraBull & endearing qualities...due to PILGRIMS ElderBull age, a lifetime spent fighting off other dogs at the end of his chain as a means of survival & never living inside of a home before (as well as a handful of special needs medical conditions).....finding his soft spot in the world was going to be a bit more challenging. We are used to challenges here at NMDOG, they build character...& they also build NMDOG programs like "Home Sanctuary" 🙂 ....which our oinky little PIGIMS certainly qualifies for!
As part of the NMDOG #HomeSanctuary Program, we pledge to provide for PILGRIMS financial lifetime care as long as he is happy in a perfect just right FoReVeR Piggy home 🐷 We are so incredibly fortunate to be able to offer this program to our special needs babies who have roadblocks & challenges to traditional adoption. Because of you #NMDOGvillage, as well as our super dedicated Veterinary Care providers, the best Home Sanctuary Care Parents you could ever imagine & the ongoing support of the good humans at the
The Grey Muzzle Organization
....we are able to offer these deserving Dogs the very best outcome. The NMDOG Home Sanctuary Program is certainly a #TEAMeffort & it is, paws down, 110% worth it!
PILGRIMS #FoReVeRfoster Dad is not new to the Home Sanctuary Family. He was also FoReVeR Foster Dad to our dearly beloved NMDOG NOBEL ❤ NOBEL was chained all 10 years of his life. Thankfully, he was able to spend his last (& very best) in the good company of our friend Woody & his NMDOG Foster Sister TASHA. TASHA has since found her happily ever FoReVeR & Woody was again in need of a couch potato companion. Its working out very nicely & everyone is content & happy....we are so grateful that PILGRIM has his very own home now!! He really needed one AND we needed to keep our promise to TASHA & NOBEL...which was to find their Dad another Senior Dog in need to chill with. We recently made it officially official so PILGRIM & Woody each bid on an Hawaiian shirt in the
NMDOG 2020 Summer Auction
to celebrate 🌺 #StinkinAdorable Aloha!!
Thank you to each of you that makes this incredibly important work possible. Without you, we are nothing & without NMDOG, so many would continue to suffer. #HappyTail #UNchained #OurPromiseIsFoReVeR #SeniorDogsRule #OneEyeNoProblem #LivingHisBestLife #PibblePower
If you are able, please consider a tax deductible donation to help us continue to provide Home Sanctuary safety & security to the 14 kiddos currently in the NMDOG Home Sanctuary Program. You can #DONATE securely via the donate button on this post. 
THANK YOU Xo We & the Dogs grrrrreatly appreciate you!!!"
