Ivy was rescued from a commercial breeding facility in Nebraska. For 10 years she was bred over and over, nearly to death. She was afraid to come out of her carrier when she first arrived at HUA.
Sukie is a energetic, outspoken, funny, playful little girl. She came from a home where the people fell on hard times and could no longer care for her.
Towser came from a puppy mill in Missouri where the lack of care was startling. Poor Towser lost 19 teeth at his first vet visit. His age is an educated guess. He could be younger.
