Alone and Scared with a Note that Read, "Please Take Me"

Leilani was found scared and alone in an elevator, her stillborn puppy beside her. Don’t miss Leilani’s heartwarming tale of rescue and recovery. [Abandoned in an Elevator] It was a piteous sight: Leilani huddled in the corner of an elevator in a Bronx apartment building, her dead newborn puppy beside her, with a note that read “[Please Take Me].” Her fur was matted, her breathing was labored and her back legs bowed out in an alarming manner. [The young Shih Tzu desperately needed help]. After giving birth to two more puppies—both stillborn—Leilani was brought to the ASPCA Animal Hospital for emergency care. She underwent one procedure to improve her pained breathing, and another to stabilize an injured kneecap. The amount of suffering and loss that this small, young dog had to overcome is unfathomable to even the strongest of us. [It is through the support of people like you that we are able to be there for victims like Leilani]—but there are still so many animals waiting to be rescued. Leilani went on to find the perfect home, and even shares a special bond with her pet parent, who had both of his knees replaced. When you make a gift to the ASPCA today, you’ll help rescue more animals just like her, and make it possible for more innocent victims to become beloved pets.
