This is my first foster, and what an eye opener it is.She is identified as a Belgian Shepherd mix and her name is Tangeer. She looks a little like a Beauceron, only her ears are not cropped! 

 

She came with 4 puppies that are 3 1/2 weeks old.  She is skin and bones, has fleas and tapeworms. We got the fleas to stop biting, and this is her finally able to sleep.  See the ribs?
This picture is a little blurry, but you can see her hip bone quite prominently here.

And equally important, you can see she is resting and quite comfortable.

The rescue transporter mentioned she walked into a Mansion compared to where she's been, so...

Here are her puppies. 

With 'RICH' names:

China

Taj Majhal

Diamond

Rolexx

 

Day two... Great friends Lauri & Mike came over and helped bathe mom and pups, which was sorely needed! 

Shows what a big difference a bath can make as the hair is not so matted, you do not see the ribs as visibly.. but they are still there.
And for full effect to show the weight loss, the gruesome shot.  I cannot find my scale, but I picked her up and she is less than 30#s.  She is so sweet.
