Beautiful Female Rottie in Georgia needs help!!!

Teddie - #27488
(When calling about a dog, refer to the dog by its ledger number, not its name!!)
Age: 3 Years
Rottweiler
Female
Ledger number: 27488
Teddie is available only to rescue groups because she is very emaciated and depressed and has shown no interest in eating, even in the yummy canned food the officers have given her. Even though she weighs 70 pounds, you can feel all of her bones (even those in her skull) when you run your hands over her body, so she should be at least 80 pounds at a healthy weight. Even in her current condition, it is evident that she is a very beautiful Rottie. She has a sweet temperament and will lean into you when you pet her. Animal Control has decided to only make her available to rescue groups so that she is healthy and stable before she goes to her permanent home.
Rescues, we really need your help with this girl!

Update: Animal Control is worried about Teddie not eating the canned and dry food they have for her, especially since she is so emaciated. Today I stopped by to visit with her, and she gobbled up 3 cans of Merrick (a dog food brand) "Smothered Comfort" flavor of canned dog food.
If you or someone you know would like to donate some cans of this specific canned food (found at Pet Supplies Plus, Mary's Tack and Feed or online at http://www. merrickpetcare. com) Teddie and Animal Control would be very grateful! While I was there, after she ate her 3 cans of food, she was all about getting petted! When I stopped, she would ever so gently nudge her head under my hand for more- SO SWEET! Teddie also spent some time with a kind man and his wife, and she gave the kind man a kiss.
Teddie is a super sweet Rottie who needs our help- thanks in advance Athens! :)

*Rescue groups only! The athenspets. net fund will donate $50 to the rescue group who saves her! Just contact Allyson at athenspets@athenspets.net!*
