Review for Humane Society Of Marion County Inc, Ocala, FL, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

Tally was taken into custody by Florida Animal Control in September, 2020. Tally should have weighed at 2 years of age 50-90 lbs for a brindle Plott hound mix but she weighed in at 22 lbs. Additionally, to being totally emaciated, full of intestinal worms and parasites, she also had heart worm. The Humane Society’s veterinarian team worked on bringing her weight up, ridding her of the intestinal worms and parasites, and praying she would make it through the heart worm treatment. She was one of the dogs that had a 50/50 chance to make it and the staff and volunteers did everything they could to get her through it. She was finally strong enough to have the heart worm treatment 3 months later in December. She was fostered by the Cornish family and under bedrest for 3 weeks during the treatment time. Tally, soon renamed as Brynn (because she is a beautiful brindle color), was ready for adoption at the end of December. Brynn had a very hard start in life but was able to make it to be rescued, brought back to health and adopted. Which is no easy task for the all the people that fought so hard against those that cruelly treated her. With the help of animal control, medical staff, employees that knew they could make a difference, and all those volunteers they made sure she could make it to a ‘forever home’. Brynn now resides with the retired Cornish’s and she has unlimited cuddles, travels with the family, goes on long trail walks, visits tons of dog parks, enjoys boat rides and has an older brother Carl (also a rescue) to play with. They are now inseparable in their forever home.
