Angie Lafond, Director of Rylie's Rescue, introduces us to Tori - a 3-year-old yellow lab who spent her life living in a crate as a puppy mill mama until she was no longer needed to breed.
While her life may have started off sad, she has such a sweet and calm demeanor and loves other dogs as well as all people and kids!
Because of her previous years in a puppy mill, it's recommended she go to a home with another dog who can show her what life and love outside of a crate is like.
She would also prefer to find a family who would be able to give her the exercise she needs to lose a few pounds, whether that be in a fenced in yard or daily walks.
