🌟Patient Spotlight: Millie🌟
Millie is a 5 year old Newfoundland who is just the sweetest girl. We absolutely love to see her in the office. See what mom has to say about her:
"Millie came into my life in December of 2021 when she was a few months old. I was adamant that I didn’t want a puppy, and I knew nothing about Newfoundlands, but one look at her adorable face, and I couldn’t say no.
From day one, she was my full-time companion because I had the luxury of taking her to work with me every day. She had some funny quirks, like refusing to go up or down stairs, cross thresholds where the floor changed colors, or get into anyone else’s vehicle except mine. She was a shy creature of habit who didn’t like to go out of her comfort zone. And when a 100+ pound dog doesn’t want to do something, they are pretty good at resisting! But we lived a simple life in a quiet rural area of the Texas panhandle, so she didn’t have much exposure to noise, traffic, crowds, multi-story buildings, or city life.
In October of 2023, my husband accepted a 2-year contract job overseas, and we flew Millie with us to Europe. The first few months were rough and a bit traumatic for of us helping her adjust. But over time, my shy girl blossomed into an outgoing, confident, sociable dog who loves adventure and exploring new places. Not only did she conquer her fear of stairs and getting into strange cars, but she learned to ride on public transportation"
We feel so lucky to be part of Millie's care and her interesting story! Give Millie some love in the comments 💙
