New Orleans, LA – Vanessa, a senior pit bull, was dropped off at the Louisiana shelter in 2012 when she was a puppy and her owners didn’t want her anymore.
Ellie Mitchell was scrolling through Facebook when she came across a photo of a sweet-looking black dog with floppy ears and a face flecked with gray.
“Overlooked for 11 Years,” read the caption on a post accompanying the photo.
“Vanessa is one of those that slipped through the cracks,” the post from Villalobos Rescue Center in New Orleans said.
