Faith, is a 2 year old female German Shepherd who has suffered neglect/abuse at the hands of her "owners".  She has demodectic mange, which is very treatable, but her owners did not seek veterinarian care for her, allowing the condition to progress to the point where Faith has little fur and major skin infections.  She was tied  outside with minimal food, water or shelter.  The neighbors would hear her crying at night from the cold but nothing was done.  To make matters worse, Faith had 10 puppies out in the cold, all died from exposure.

Instead of seeking help for Faith, her owners brought her to a county shelter to be euthanized.  Fortunately a veterinarian was on the premises when Faith arrived and knew that she could be helped.  The shelter contacted Weeping Willow and the rescue process was begun.  Many people offered help, sending donations  for Faith's medical care which will be extensive due to the severity of her condition.
