	Meet Josephine, one of the sweetest dogs we've ever rescued. She was found in a horrible area of town with her 3 little puppies. She had a makeshift home for them underneath a dilapidated house. She did a wonderful job keeping them safe and healthy. Josephine's puppies have already gone to their forever homes. But Josephine had to wait. She was a very, very sick girl. She was under strict orders from the vet that she was not to exert herself in any way. It was touch and go for a few months. But now she is the picture of health. She still has a slight cough that she'll probably always have. This is due to scarring of her trachea. Since this is a pre-existing condition Stray Rescue will cover the cost of her medicine. It's just a pill she takes twice a day. Put it in some braunschweiger and she'll gobble it right out of your hand. Josephine is available for our Seniors For Seniors program. Anyone age 65 and over who adopts a dog age 4 and over gets the adoption fee waived. Quite a bargain for this wonderful girl. Josephine is housebroken and loves to go for walks. She's great on a leash. She isn't destructive in the least so she should be ok not crated. She would probably do best in a home as the only pet. But she has the love of 10 dogs, plus 2. She also has the cutest little nub for a tail. We've never seen it stop wagging. If you would like to meet Josephine just fill out one of our online applications. You can even bring her home for a few days, or Rent-A-Pet, to see for yourself that she'll fit in perfectly at your house. Just be prepared for lots of kisses.
If you are interested in adopting this dog, please fill out our online questionnaire/application.
