Malibu was an owner surrender on Jan 1, 2015 to San Bernardino Animal Shelter, a high kill shelter. The volunteers at the shelter said that she was pregnant and if she wasn’t rescued by January 8th, she would be at risk to be euthanized. On Jan 10th, Malibu got her freedom day! The woman who originally said that she would foster Malibu backed out at the last minute after finding out she was not pregnant, so Malibu went into boarding. At least she was out of the shelter!
Christine was a rescue volunteer walking dogs in boarding, so when she found out that Malibu was being boarded near her home, she volunteered with the rescue to walk her weekly. A few months went by and the rescue that originally helped save Malibu abandoned her at the boarding facility, along with 9 other dogs at different boarding facilities. The rescue has since disappeared.
Christine continued to walk Malibu for 6 months, rain or shine, until she was able to find another rescue to take her under their wing. At this point, Christine was still trying to find someone to adopt her, so she posted Malibu’s information everywhere, hoping that a loving family would see her. When the boarding facility said they couldn’t keep Malibu anymore and threatened to send her back to the San Bernadino Animal Shelter, Christine decided to foster her through Chews Life Dog Rescue. Christine knew from day one that Malibu was already home, and on July 1, 2015, made it official!
