Can you imagine someone abandoning an elderly dog with health problems? It does happen. In fact, it happened to this black cocker spaniel mix, who is now named Marge.
The day that Marge was dumped Mary Ann B. was answering Anthem Pet’s hotline. When a call came in telling of an elderly female dog who had been dumped at a park, Mary Ann felt a tug at her heart. She immediately sent a team to rescue the dog and soon Marge began veterinarian treatment.
She underwent various exams and eventually surgery to remove seven mammary tumors. As Marge recovered from surgery, Anthem Pets began looking for a foster home for her, but unfortunately her condition suggested that it needed to be a special hospice foster home. Mary Ann B. volunteered to take Marge in.
To everyone’s surprise, she slowly recovered and has been beating all the odds for three years. Marge continues living in her happily-ever-after home with Mary Ann B., her family and a four-legged brother named Homer.
