Poodle was left by owner who wanted her put down — saved and is given her a second chance
Every dog, no matter their age, deserves love and care, right? Well, there's this heartwarming story about an old dog who got a second chance.
So, there's this poodle named Princess, right? Sadly, her owner left her in a tiny crate outside the Animal Welfare League of Alexandria in Virginia. There were bags of her stuff and a note from the owner, asking the shelter to put Princess down and share her belongings with other dogs once she's gone. Can you believe that? But hey, this story has a happy ending!

But while the dog was elderly, the shelter didn’t see any reason for her to be euthanized. They transferred her to Miri’s Haven Senior Dog Rescue, who could give the old dog all the care she needed.
“The shelter is no place for a fragile Senior with questionable medical history so we said yes and she was en route that same day,” the rescue wrote on Facebook. “We will do everything we can to rectify the way Princess has been treated and to give her a chance at a happier final chapter in her life.”
In a follow-up post, they said it appeared Princess had been well cared for, and it’s not clear why the owner ultimately decided to leave her for dead like that.
“She had clearly been loved and the lack of concern for her precious life did not reflect in each of her belongings. There was a disconnect and we will never know what that was but Princess is safe.”
Safe and sound in the rescue, Princess thrived, surprising everyone with her recovery and positive spirit. The rescue has shared photos and videos of Princess rocking some cozy dog sweaters.
Based on the medical information provided, it was decided that Princess would be best in a dedicated hospice foster home. She’s doing great, and will no doubt spend whatever time she has left surrounded by love and comfort.
