I am very sad, my mom lost her job and I can not go with her. I love her very much.

My name is Abby. I’ve had a bit of a rough go in life but that hasn’t stopped me from being a very sweet and loving girl. When ARRF first rescued me I was fully grown but only 42 pounds and had been chained to a tree my whole life. ARRF nursed me back to health and when my mommy adopted me in November 2009 I was 70 pounds. My mommy has fed me so well that I am about 82 pounds and I look great! My mommy lost her job and can’t take me where she is going so now I need a new home with people who will love me very much! When I was first adopted I had to learn how to live in a home and this was very new to me. My mommy taught me not to potty in the house, share my toys, and be good to other dogs and cats! But what I love the most is snuggling! My mommy says that I am the best snuggler in the whole world, I just love being close and to be loved on, maybe more than I love eating! I never bark unless the cat is up to no good or I hear something funny outside. I also never jump or bite! All I want is someone who will let me snuggle with them and show me all the love I’ve always dreamed of. My mommy and I have learned a lot from each other. She said that whatever bad things people have heard about rottweilers just can’t be true because she’s never met a more loving, caring, and sweeter girl than me! Please adopt me, I’m the best girl you’ll ever meet! 

I recently lost my job and things have subsequently gone down hill. I am moving to Boston to stay with my sister until things get better. She is also pregnant and so it'll be good for me to be there to help out. Unfortunately I cannot take Abby where I am going and I have been trying for weeks to make it possible for me to take her. You have no idea how difficult all of this has been but I don't know what else I can do, I have begged my sister and her boyfriend to allow me to bring her but they won't. It's not that they don't like her it's just that they already live in a small place, have 2 cats, one dog, and one child with another on the way. I even thought about moving back in with my mom but there is no work for me here. I have no where else to turn but to you guys as much as I even hate doing this. I've been avoiding writing this email hoping that something will change but it's not. Can your organization take her and place her in a better home with someone who can't fail her? I feel so terrible about this, I am more angry with myself, it's really not fair to Abby, she's is such an amazing girl and I love her with all my heart. I'll be in Raleigh for another 3 weeks and can keep her till then. I can write up a perfect recommendation for her and can talk to any potential adopters to answer any and all questions about her. She deserves a good place, I thought I could provide her with everything but I never thought this would happen or even that I wouldn't be able to bring her to Boston with me.

Abby spent her entire life chained in a backyard, her collar was embedded in her neck requiring surgery to remove it.  She weighed 42 lbs when she came to the facility. Abby has a neurological disorder from always going in circles and the chain pulling at my neck, She falls down sometimes, especially when excited.  She absolutely loves people. She does not require any medication, you just have to realize that when she starts running she may fall down, She just shakes it off and keeps on playing.  Life is so wonderful being free.  

Good with Dogs, Good with Kids
