Help Merryweather Find a Forever Home - Featuring Larissa Wohl, Lindsay Bird and Ellen Ballon Dante

The Woof Life Show - A Podcast for Dog Lovers

In this episode, Lauren chats with rescue experts who need help for a pup desperately in need. Pet rescue shows both the worst and best in society and Merryweather a pup who is in a shelter in St. Landry Animal Rescue tells both of those tales.

We chat with Larissa Wohl a Pet rescue expert who works for the Hallmark Channel who discovered Merryweather’s case when she was traveling to rural Louisiana. Merryweather on the surface appears to be a pup in a cage looking for a forever home like so many other pups. What you don’t see on the surface is that she was brutalized by a human who raped her and left her in a field. An animal control officer found her in a bad state but this dog like so many rescue dogs showed its resilience and came towards the officer who was offering help with a wagging tail.

Merryweather required 4 surgeries to mend all of the damage that was done to her. She is safe living in a cage but she is a brown pitbull in rural Louisiana. There are not a lot of prospects for her to begin the next chapter of her life in a forever home no matter how hard the shelter works.

Deity Animal Rescue in Los Angeles wants to give this girl a new lease on life. They want to transport her from Los Angeles and get her healthy to get her matched with a loving home. As a 501 c3 non-profit that helps pups find forever homes. Ellen and Lindsay from Deity share how people can help this incredible pup.
