Sweet Natalie is a little Dorkie who was found on the side of the road, nearly crippled by overgrown nails…with fur so matted it had to be shaved…she had a deep ear infection and was emotionally shut down. What a heartbreaking thing to happen to any helpless little one who should always have been loved and cherished! ATDR couldn’t say no to taking this tiny 5-pound baby under its broad protective wing, placing her in a safe, comfortable foster home and getting her the veterinary care she’s needed for way too long. Hopefully with the gentle loving touch of a kind foster mom, this baby will blossom into the precious treasure we know is inside her. We’re so thankful she’s safe with us now…

For Natalie’s safety, because she’s so tiny and fragile, she’d do best in a home with either older or no children at all. If you’re looking for a little angel to fill your heart with love and your lap with warm snuggles, Natalie is the perfect girl for you! All you need to do is fill out an adoption application for her to consider…she’s ready and waiting for a special person or family to make her feel safe and whole again…in return, she will shower you with an unending abundance of love and adoration...
