Ria went out to her first adoption drive today! Yesterday, I gave her a bath since all her scabs have fallen off and the wound is completely dried up. It was probably her first bath ever! I'd just cleaned her up a bit with wipes before. She's not officially up for adoption yet since she won't be vaccinated till Monday, but it was great for her to have a chance to get out and get used to people. She loved hanging out on a comfy blanket in the wagon they had there.

She's going to be going to Malaysian Dogs Deserve Better (MDDB)'s home for dogs with special needs. MDDB has a large no-kill shelter with over 400 dogs and a smaller, separate home for dogs with special needs. They have sent dogs to the US and Europe before if anyone is interested in her.

(Hope the photos post; I tried using a link to photos in my Google drive and made the link public)

Thanks so much for posting the photos for me! I just took her for her first vaccination today, and she's doing well, no side effects.

I've started a blog for Ria now! She's still with me and I'm going to try my best to find her a good home. Even though she has a place in the disabled dogs' home if she really needs it, it's not the same as having a family. I went to the US for 2.5 weeks, and she couldn't go to the disabled dogs' home yet since she'd only had one vaccination, so another rescuer took her in while I was away and that ended up being a disaster! People underestimate what she can do on three legs. She wasn't too happy about being in a new place and she wasn't getting the attention she gets here with so many cats and dogs there. So she decided to escape by climbing over the back gate!

Search parties went out looking for her every day, and fortunately she was staying in the same area and hiding on some school grounds. But everyone was shocked at how fast she could run! No one could catch her for more than 10 days until finally someone caught her in a humane trap and brought her to a vet, where she stayed till I came back. It wasn't a vet I knew, and they acted like she was some kind of wild animal (she does tend to bark at strangers, but she isn't aggressive). It was so sad to see her in the cage, but as soon as she saw me, her eyes lit up and she wagged her tail. She was so happy to go home with me. I got her second vaccination that day, but I think I'll keep her safe with me for awhile. She now sleeps in bed with me and my other three dogs!

She went to an adoption drive a couple weeks ago and was more comfortable with people, but no interest in her so far. 

Thank you so much for the support! I'd appreciate anything you can do to get the word out. I saw you shared her in the newsletter . I've just posted in the rescue forum here.
