​

Cinder was a stray who was picked up by animal control in Wake County.  She was pulled from the shelter where she had been diagnosed with severe demodecosis with generalized pyoderma.  In other words, she had no hair, her skin was on fire and she needed plenty of love, care, baths nearly every day and antibiotics. She’s well on her way to a full recovery getting a little bit better everyday.

I’m Susan, Cinder’s foster mom. when she came in she was a love bug, despite her terrible condition. As she’s healed and gained some of her energy back, she’s started to show an amazing personality. She loves to cuddle and will fight for the chance to curl up in my lap and take a nap. We’ve had a few weekend naps on the couch and she is the best sleeping buddy with a super cute little snore. She’s doing well with my pack, playing with the big and litttle dogs with no problem. 

She and I have bonded a bit during the long hours of her recovery. I’ve made her some big promises. She has a lot to give to a “dog family”. The kind of family that includes their pet on Christmas cards and remembers their birthday. Having been a stray, she’s likely to have a few life long quirks ( she resource guards food and won’t be able to share treats or bowls, she’s a little afraid of the dark and prefers her yard to walks at night, etc ). I promised her that her family will understand those quirks and love her anyway because they make her special. 

Shes a wonderful soul and I know she will complete a family bringing joy and lots of naps. Is it your family? Fill out an app today!
