Margie is a resilient 46-pound Shetland Sheepdog/Australian Shepherd mix with a heart full of love and a past full of hardship. After being hit by a car alongside her sister, Margie came into rescue limping and carrying a heavy medical burden—including a luxated patella and dangerously high levels of three tick-borne diseases. Despite it all, this sweet girl has patiently fought her way back to health and is now ready to find the gentle, understanding home she deserves.
Why Margie is the Ultimate Devoted Survivor
🐾 Soft, soulful eyes and a gentle demeanor
🩹 Bravely overcame a severe tick-borne illness and injury
🏡 Calm, quiet presence that blooms once trust is built
🐕 Gets around fine despite a slight limp—still loves a stroll and gentle companionship
💊 Will need lifelong medication (approx. $33/month) for arthritis support
🛋️ Bonds deeply with her person—her love is for life
What Margie is Looking For
✔️ A calm, quiet home with minimal stairs
✔️ Someone patient and kind who understands trauma recovery
✔️ A family able to commit to her long-term medical care
✔️ A low-traffic environment where she can feel safe and secure
✔️ A home where love comes slowly—but stays forever
Margie has come so far, and now she just needs someone to see past the limp and into the heart of a dog who has never stopped hoping. If you’re looking for a gentle soul who will love you fiercely once she feels safe, Margie may be your perfect match.
