This beautiful girl was abandoned at a truck stop, and as you can see, she is not doing well at the shelter. She is very depressed and underweight.

Devi is a 3-year-old American Staffy mix. She was reportedly left at a truck stop in Kentucky with another dog who might have been her sister.

The Herkimer County Humane Society (HCHS) says Devi is charming, really friendly, good with cats, and other lower energy dogs. She is quite submissive and a little shy, but absolutely loves affection and is happiest in your lap. She is housebroken, crate trained, and enjoys car rides.

Can you help find Devi a home? She is around 2 years old, is very skinny with sensitive paws.

UPDATE: Devi was so depressed at the shelter that she recently moved to a foster home. Meet this lovebug and help her be happy and safe again. The Herkimer County Humane Society is located at 514 State Route 5S Mohawk, New York. (315) 866-3255. She has been altered and is up to date on her shots.
