Rescued dog gets a fresh start

Boston terrier has had rough time

By Robb Murray

A foster family has been found for Jenny.

Getting Jenny back to a normal weight will take several weeks. Simply shoving an entire bag of food at her won’t work.

For now, they’re feeding canned food to her gradually. Normally, vets prefer high-quality dry dog food, but in Jenny’s case, she could use the added moisture of canned food.

The vets say Jenny is going to be OK.

“The odds are definitely in her favor,” Shauberger said.

To be considered for foster care for other dogs in need of housing, call the Blue Earth⁄Nicollet County Humane Society at 625-6373.
