12/21/21 – Belia had been kept on a chain for what may be most of her life. Her owner was shot and killed and the family did not want her. She was 11 years old, malnourished, and was allegedly used for breeding. She was rescued and tested positive for heart worm but last night she was found by her rescuer, passed away. She was scheduled for continued heart worm treatment this morning. May she finally rest in peace after years of abuse. But, at least, she had love and companionship for the past 3 months. – diana.4paws1heart.org/donations/
