RAFAELA, FUN AND PLAYFUL, A VERY POSITIVE GIRL
Rafaela arrived in a terrible condition with half her fur missing and must have been so incredibly uncomfortable and itchy, poor girl. However, she never let this get her down and has flourished since she arrived at the pound and absolutely loves all the new dog friends she has made there. Her fur has now grown back and she looks and feels great. She enjoys playing with other dogs so much that we feel she needs a home where there are other dogs she can play with. She is a good girl who hasn’t caused any problems at the pound and just lives life to the full. Her life before the pound must have been awful.
As per June 2019, poor Rafaela has now been waiting for two years for her forever home, almost 18 months after her arrival. She went into foster care briefly during the floods in 2018 and she was a very good girl. Unfortunately she has had a hard time at the pound recently where one of the dogs in her pen turned on her and she was badly injured and she was not accepted back in that pen by the other dogs. She is now with another dog and enjoys coming out to play every afternoon with a large group of dogs and is very well behaved. She is a sweet girl who really deserves a home of her own.
Rafaela is available for adoption in Germany, UK, Sweden, Finland, Holland, Spain and many other countries. Homecheck and adoption fee apply. Adoption fee includes neutering, passport, microchip, all vaccinations, blood tests to screen for diseases, worm and flea treatment.
