Introducing a "Fresh" Little Girl to Col. Potter!

Written by CP's VP of Intakes

A call from a miller wanting to release some breeding stock and the plea goes out to the rescue community for help. There isn't much time -- if you don't show up quickly enough, the dogs may no longer be there, disposed of in a manner you wouldn't want to know about. The rescue vehicle rolls into the dirt, filth and stench that is a puppy mill and leaves with 22 little souls that will never again be cold, hungry, or dirty.

Col. Potter answered the plea for two little Cairn females that made their way out ... however, one of the Cairns was immediately taken to the emergency vet by the local rescue with a ruptured rectum. She has had surgery and is at this point in critical condition. She will be staying with the local rescue group, at least for now, as she has a long road ahead of her. Please keep her in your thoughts and let's all hope that she does get to enjoy the freedom she has waited so long to achieve ...

The other little 2 year old female is a petite, little black brindle BEAUTY who is already giving little tail wags. Please help me welcome Fresca to the Col. Potter family! Fresca in Italian and Spanish means fresh and that's exactly what Fresca is enjoying, a fresh start to a life of freedom.

My thanks to Marlene T. for picking up Fresca today and sending pictures.

Please remember that CP is only able to help as many PM kids as we have the financial means to support and foster homes to care for them. We welcome donations in support of the PM kids and are always in need of more foster homes. I'm sure Fresca's little tail wags are saying THANK YOU for being there for her and she hopes CP will be able to help many other Cairns that get the chance at freedom like she and her Cairn kennel mate, who surely would have died if she had not gotten out of the PM when she did ...
