Dogs are coming into rescue in alarming numbers, and Esme, Vanellope and Dolly were three of several taken in by FOAW over a single weekend. Discarded by the breeding industry, the dogs will receive all veterinary care that is necessary for them to have a healthy future in their adoptive homes.
No dog coming from the rough end of the breeding industry, as Nadia, Gabby and Kenny have experienced, comes out unscathed. But some are more obviously traumatised and damaged. Of the three dogs, Kenny was the most pitiful.
When dogs are neglected for years, as Genny has been in the breeding industry, it takes a hard toll on their physical and emotional health. Schnauzerfest works to support rescues with what can be high veterinary costs.
