The rescue shelter that took in a St. Bernard that survived 17 days outside in freezing temperatures said the dog is on its way to a "forever home."

Ruff Start Rescue posted on Jan. 25 that Old Lady, also known as Tesha, has been placed with a foster owner to help her regain her health until she is adopted.

Ruff Start Rescue has been posting other updates about the canine on its Facebook page since she has gone to her new foster home.

On Monday, the Bloomington Police Department tweeted the St. Bernard visited the department.

"Tesha spent a little time saying hi & spreading some good vibes around the PD," the tweet read.

We had a special visitor today. Say hi to Tesha (aka-Old Lady), a big awesome fur-baby that Det Kne adopted after Teshas recent outdoor adventures.
