DOG OF THE WEEK – Help Evie Find Her Forever Home

This one-year-old Shepherd/Italian Greyhound mix needs a home. Will it be yours?

Evie is a one-year-old Shepherd/Italian Greyhound mix. She was found in a shelter in Southern Georgia. Evie was pregnant and in a pen with several other dogs. She was standing on the top of an igloo to keep herself and her unborn babies safe.

Evie was transported to New Jersey and on the next day, Sept. 21, she gave birth to 9 gorgeous puppies. Evie was a great mom, and now she is ready to start a life with a family she can call her own. Evie is about 30 pounds, fully grown, and is a medium-size dog. She loves other dogs and craves the attention of people. Evie is up-to-date with her routine shots.

For more information on Evie or any of the other dogs available through Home for Good Dog Rescue, visit the Home for Good website, call (908) 598-8212 or email contacthfg@gmail.com.
