Violet the dog was found in December 2016 during a property that seemed quite abandoned. A lady that was driving by spotted her and a number of other pooches that were chained up with really heavy metal chains that weren't only depriving the dogs from traveling, but also hurting them. When found, Violet was about 2 years old and Angela Stell, founder and director of NMDOG, says they think she might’ve been chained up her entire life.
“She was very, very afraid, and remains a touch timid,” Stell said. They believe that because of this behavior, Violet may need to experience some abuse. However, the pooch is now in healthiness and recovering from the emotional stuff she went through and once her recovery is completed, the loving dog is going to be up for adoption!
