An abandoned dog was reported at an auto shop to Hope For Paws. The previous owners had abandoned her eight months ago when they moved out. When rescuers arrived, they fed her to try and earn her trust, but she was still frightened.

The person being rescued continuously moved from one hiding spot to another, making it difficult for rescuers to approach her.

Despite the baby animal’s fear and reluctance to be rescued, the determined rescuers persisted in their efforts. They managed to gently wrap a snare around its neck, but the animal remained paralyzed with fear and was challenging to bring to safety.

After finding her hiding spot, she was put in a crate and transported by auto shop employees to CARES for medical evaluation and a bath due to being covered in motor oil. Blue Bayou is now the pup’s name, and Andrew Rosenthal and LA Dogworks have been assisting with her training and socialization.
