Tragedy to Triumph

On the evening of May 5^th, Mizz Ginny was rescued by Hillsborough County Animal Services.  She had not been fed for two months on a chain in someone's back yard.  The investigators thought she was dead, then suddenly her eyes moved.  She was still alive.  She was fed intravenously until she was strong enough to drink water and eat soft food.

On May 19^th, Ginny was transferred to the Humane Society of Tampa Bay.  Her condition slowly improved.  After a few days, she went into a foster home.  Once she gained enough weight, she underwent heartworm treatment and eventually was put up for adoption at HSTB.

It took a little over a month, but on August 24^th she found her new home with a family with two older children.  They have a big house, a nice yard, and plan to spoil Mizz Ginny the way she deserves.

The woman responsible for nearly killing her is facing felony charges for cruelty to animals - intentional starvation and misdemeanor charges for confinement of animals without food and water.
