Oh, Angie, thanks for showing us Maggie. What a horrible experience she has been through . It just makes me so angry and sad to know that she lay there in pain AFTER she was picked up.

It doesn't say where she is located though. Is she in Canada? And isn't she just the most beautiful girl? Sue, Becky, and all the rest of the GSD lovers must be drooling. I do hope that Maggie will find a perfect home. I'll be she will, and I will keep her in my prayers.

OMG!! Angie, My dear, sweet Cody is a husky/shep rescue who was severely abused too! Maggie looks so much like her. The husky look, but with the longer snout and tall ears of the shep. Oh, I pray that Maggie's suffering has ended and that she will find her forever home very soon. Bless you beautiful girl. My Cody and I are saying tons of prayers that soon you will be in loving arms. Love, Sandra and Cody

Maggie, this is Cody. She knows how brave you were to suffer through, and survive such abuse. She sends you all her love.

Here's Cody


And here's Maggie. How I wish they could meet!

Angie, I think you do this to make me want even more dogs don't you? Maggie is an absolute beauty. I hate it when shelters are supposed to be there for the good of the animals and then THEY neglect them just as much as a bad owner would. It's too bad there isn't someplace to report the shelter. I sure hope that Maggie finds her forever home soon...perhaps her foster mom will keep her.
