Rescuing a corgi from a high-kill shelter

She's listed as a "Welsh Corgi - Cardigan Mix," but if you look at her picture you can clearly see that she's a Pembroke. She's a year old and smaller than my 4yr old female. I have concerns because I've heard that two females usually don't get along, but I've found that Faye doesn't like males that much either. I'm going to the shelter tomorrow morning with Faye so we can meet her and possibly adopt her. Some of the dogs have kennel cough and the conditions are horrible. There have been articles written on how horrible this shelter is. I need to get her out of there!

Took this with my phone. Isn't she beautiful?

EDIT: If you are interested in rescuing a shelter corgi and you live in Southern California, the Lancaster shelter has one listed. Here's the link.

Comment by Cindi & Twinkie on May 30, 2009 at 8:09am: I hope Faye can take to her. What a wonderful thing to do for that sweet girl. Good luck!

Let us know how the visit goes and if you're able to adopt this beautiful girl. I hate to think of these shelters. These dogs have a better chance of surviving out on the street as a stray than being in one of those.

Comment by Geri & Sidney on May 30, 2009 at 12:37am: She IS beautiful and obviously all Pembroke! I hope you get to bring her home, poor little thing
