Madonna was surrendered by the owner of a puppy breeding facility.
At seven years of age she was longer of use to the breeder. She had given birth to many litters of puppies and was relieved to be away from that life.
Madonna's teeth were in horrible condition due to lack of veterinary care, but with support from the BCSPCA's Biscuit Fund, Madonna had some major dental work done and was adopted into a loving home in Chilliwack.
