Today was the day that Jackie was coming to live with me. I was going to give that dog so much and affection. I could hardly sit still as I waited for her foster family to bring her home.



2

Her story is heartbreaking. Jackie was a small dog with a big heart who only wanted somebody to love her. She spent her life going from home to home, shelter to shelter. She's an older dog so I'll just have to give to her extra love for the years that she missed out on.






3




Jackie was brought to a shelter as a puppy. The family that adopted her seemed nice enough but once she started having accidents in the house, they decided to keep her outdoors. They never let her into the house again and eventually brought her back to the shelter.

HOPE

The shelter was cold, damp, and lonely. Jackie spent a lot of time alone curled up in the corner. When people would walk through the kennels they would ignore Jackie. She looked angry and sad and growled at anyone who came near her. She was so afraid of people.

5


HOPE

Things did not look good for Jackie. If she wasn't adopted soon....no, I don't want to think about it. The shelter dropped Jackie's adoption fee and basically gave her away to anyone who wanted her. You don't buy dogs, you adopt them. Unfortunately for Jackie, she was a bargain.


6





Jackie's new owner never met her. The shelter manager just wanted to make room for a new dog in the kennels. The man who adopted her didn't even like dogs. He just wanted to get one for his kids because they kept bugging him for one. He wasn't a very friendly as he didn't utter a word to Jackie during the entire ride home.
7









At first things were great for Jackie in her new home. The kids loved her and played with her all the time. Unfortunately, Jackie hadn't been properly trained and would misbehave and jump up on the children. She didn't know any better.

8





The kids were still very young. They had never had a pet before. Not even a goldfish. They didn't know how to act around dogs. One afternoon, the little girl began poking Jackie which upset the poor dog. Eventually she ended up biting the girl. It wasn't serious but the girl screamed and cried out loud.









9





The girl's father refused to give Jackie another chance. He never spent any time with Jackie despite the fact that she was the "family dog." He angrily put Jackie into the back of his truck and sped off. Rather than bring her back to the shelter, he decided to do something very cruel and selfish.
10




He drove out to the rural part of town and dropped Jackie off. Then he drove off in his truck leaving a confused and frightened Jackie all alone. She cried and howled all night long waiting for the man to return. But he never did.

11

After spending some chilly, scary days and nights all by herself, Jackie would meet her angels. A couple of friends were out for a walk when they saw the mangy pooch. As luck would have it, two friends also happened to work with a local dog rescue group.
