Remember this is a mini, maybe weighs in at 10 lbs or so and always can you carry them to the van, well maybe not this one. She weighs in at a whopping 33 lbs. She looked like a cotton ball with four legs. That puts her at nearly 20 lbs or so overweight. Well, the rescue knows how to get her weight down safely and I would love to see some pictures of before and after. But it will be a food battle I am sure. The shelter says she was a stray, don&#8217;t see how, unless they picked her up right next door to where she lived. She walked to the van and was winded. I would say her former owners just dumped her and drove off. Nice folks.<\/p>\n<div id='gallery-1' class='gallery galleryid-1257 gallery-columns-2 gallery-size-thumbnail'><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/helpingouranimalfriends.rocks\/animalresourcesinc\/012114-1\/'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/helpingouranimalfriends.rocks\/animalresourcesinc\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2015\/09\/012114-1-150x150.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div><\/figure><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/helpingouranimalfriends.rocks\/animalresourcesinc\/012114-2\/'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/helpingouranimalfriends.rocks\/animalresourcesinc\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2015\/09\/012114-2-150x150.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div><\/figure>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Today I went to a shelter to pick up a very large toy poodle.
