Healthy and Happy, Pandy is Ready for a New Home.

Pandy was a bouncy, one-year-old Lab mix when she arrived at West Suburban Humane Society in 2015 from one of our rescue partners in Southern Indiana.  She was only at our Adoption Center for eight days before she was adopted.

Pandy lived with her loving family for almost six years, but unfortunately, she developed ongoing medical issues that her family didn’t have the resources to treat.  Pandy’s family made the difficult decision to return her to us so WSHS could give her the care she needed.  WSHS makes a lifelong commitment to our animals so we welcomed Pandy back to our Adoption Center. Once Pandy arrived and was evaluated, we could tell that bladder stones were making her uncomfortable and causing her to urinate frequently.  We made an appointment with our vet partners, and upon x-raying Pandy, they found that 80% of her bladder was blocked by stones. The vet removed the stones by surgery, and after two weeks, Pandy was feeling much better and was ready to find her new loving family.

Pandy is a silly, fun-loving girl that has a real zest for life. As a lab, she also loves water! Her volunteer buddy says: "Pandy is so enthusiastic when I go to take her out. She can walk long distances, and she has been getting more and more comfortable with new things like car noises. It is a joy to play with her, and she comes alive in our indoor playroom - loves playing with toys, fetching toys, laying on the couch, and laying on her back for massages."

With her prescription diet, Pandy’s stones are unlikely to re-occur and Pandy has several years of love left to give. She is just waiting for that special someone to notice her and make her part of their family. We are so glad that our volunteers and supporters help us make a lifelong commitment to each dog and cat. Once an animal comes into our care, your support ensures that we can go above and beyond to give them the best quality of life and the best chance at finding a loving family.
