Patience is a virtue when it comes to rescue … it is not a race but rather a journey that we take with these abandoned, neglected and often abused souls that find their way to us. Maeve is certainly one of those souls. She was presumably abandoned in the Pickerington Reynoldsburg area earlier in the summer and ran in fear for weeks, not knowing who to trust or evade and therefore in full flight mode despite many attempts to help her. She was hit by cars at least twice and ended up with a prolapsed uterus injury at some point. True dedication from the Rico Pet Recovery team ultimately resulted in a successful capture via a live trap along I70 after many weeks of surveillance, trap relocation and many wasted meals in hopes of luring her in. Once trapped however, Maeve simply melted and has become a favorite among all that meet her. She LOVES belly rubs, is very food motivated with no regard for personal space when it comes to licking fingers, faces, bowls or counters clean, and thrives on routine. She is housebroken, crate trained, and eager to please but cautious of new people, places and things at first. She would love a family to call her own but a fenced yard is a must as she will always possess the “flight” instinct when startled as she obviously has PTSD. Since being in our care, she has filled out nicely, been spayed and had her prolapse corrected and is now current on vaccines and preventative. She still had a limp on her right rear from previous trauma that left a bone chip floating in her knee joint but it doesn’t slow her down. We estimate her to be 2-3yrs old, a Lab mix, and about 58lbs. $350 IF you would like to meet MAEVE please complete an application for adoption, copy and paste this link into your browser https://fs17.formsite.com/adoptionscc/form1/index Any vaccinations/boosters due after adoption is finalized will be the new owner's responsibility. All animals are current at time of adoption but in some cases a booster series is required or a vaccine cannot be given due to age and cannot be completed prior to adoption Our adoptable animals come to us from various sources, the most common being from an animal shelter who is unable to handle their physical or mental needs in the shelter setting but believe with the appropriate care, they can become adoptable.
