Lizzy is named for a Larry Williams song the Beatles covered in 1965 on their Help! album: "Dizzy Miss Lizzy".
An ACT rescue volunteer saw some people stop their truck alongside a road and then pull a dirty, greasy, young terrier from the back of their pickup truck and put her on the ground. The volunteer pulled over to see what was going on since it looked like the people were just leaving the dog. They told her that didn't want her anymore and then left.

| Lizzy with an ACT volunteer |
The volunteer brought her into the rescue shelter and because she was a Rat Terrier mix they contacted us to see if we had a spot for her. ACT is an all breed rescue in Fresno that does great work not just in fostering and adopting out dogs but also by finding breed rescues to take some of the dogs they are working to save as well.
How could we say no?
So we raised our hand to take in Lizzy as our next foster.This cute gal is about 9 months old and weighs around 14 pounds. She'll arrive on Sunday evening and we can't wait to meet her. Stay tuned for more posts as she settles in and we get to know her better.

High Five to all involved!! Boo to Lizzy's past unfit parents. So happy someone saw this happen and was able to rescue Lizzy before she was even further traumatized.
