Matilda

Matilda is an adoptable female Black Labrador Retriever looking for a home at Palm Beach County Animal Care & Control in West Palm Beach, Florida. She is senior and x-large in size. She is currently on the shelter's euthanasia list with just one day left, listed due to other. Adopting Matilda, or even sharing her story, could save a life before it's too late.

Intake Info: Matilda is a 10-year-old, unaltered female Cane Corso who came in with another dog who has since been adopted. The source said they had been living on their uncle's property, but they didn't know who the owner was. Matilda has a microchip but is was untraceable. Medical: Matilda has clinical heartworm disease and is on treatment for symptoms of CIRD (coughing). She has a grade 3/5 heart murmur, multiple skin tags/small masses across the body. She weighs 133lbs and is very friendly. Able to pet all over head, face, body and allows muzzle placement with no issues. Fly bites at the base of the ear. Up to date on vaccines. Request to Rescues: Matilda needs urgent rescue so that she can start her heartworm treatment, recover from CIRD and be seen by a vet to assess her heart murmur and skin tags. Her medical needs exceed our capacity for care. This sweet senior deserves a safe and comfortable space to heal, rest and recover.
