Smiles is one of the 11 shelties rescued from a Lancaster puppy mill breeder. She had only been in rescue for 12 days ~ escaped on October 10th [pulled out harness when 'spooked' by something].
She was on her own all through winter/early spring .... but she must have finally tired of all that freedom ~ because on March 30th she allowed us to capture her & return her to safety !!!
Investigating the trap ... but too cautious to go inside !!

We are so grateful to everyone for their support ~ the countless hours spent searching for our ellusive little one, the prayers for her safe recovery, the donations towards our professional pet trapper, as well as all the food put out in hopes of tempting her into safe traps. She wouldn't be alive without your combined efforts on her behalf.
