**SAFE 04/17/16*** SKITTLES is a sick little girl and needs an EXPERIENCED new owner. She has old wounds,one needing follow up care. She can’t walk..Likely a neurologic issue and also needs care for by a competent vet. If you can provide her with that care and a home to rest and get well in then this is your girl. She has every color of the rainbow on her beautiful coat. But this SKITTLES doesn’t need a pot of gold at the end of her rainbow….She just NEEDS you,waiting there with open arms to catch her when she falls!
