Rosie finds a home after cancer trial
Rosie is a 2-year-old pit bull dog rescued from a shelter in Louisiana. She had been dropped off there by an owner who used her for breeding. But before she could be adopted, her foster family in New Orleans noticed a strange lump on her stomach. The lump turned out to be lymphoma. Rosie’s cancer went into remission following the standard chemotherapy treatment, but there was no cure. Her cancer was expected to return. And that’s where Save an Angel stepped in. Formed in New Orleans following the cancer treatment of the founder’s dog, Angel, the nonprofit helps afford life-saving treatments for dogs.
