A picture of Millie before she was subjected to such horrible living conditions.
According to records found at the breeder’s house and website, Millie is a female black silver short leg Minuet. She was born on July 2, 2020.
Millie was taken on by Town and Country Animal Rescue of Omaha as a foster case the night she was brought out of the hoarding house. There, she was kept in a cage for unknown how long and neglected, given either no food or minimal food for at least a month. She was horribly emaciated and weighed only a fraction of what she should have weighed. She was matted and needed to be shaved in places to remove painful knots. Town and Country Animal Rescue of Omaha is seeing to her medical care and recovery. She is currently recovering from her ordeal.
Her foster parent reports that Millie is slightly shy when you first meet her, but she warms up pretty quickly. She still needs to grow her coat back in and gain weight, but it looks as if there are no long-term issues that will haunt her. She is on track to becoming ready to go home.
January 14, 2025: Millie has improved enough to go into foster care. Town and Country Rescue is working to line up a foster to care for her until she is ready for adoption.
Millie is still being cared for, so we are not absolutely certain if she will need any long-term medical care when she goes home. We will know this for sure when she is available for adoption.
February 27, 2025, Update: Millie was adopted by her foster family. She begins her happily ever after story.
