UPDATE: She has found her forever home! ❤️
This baby has been cleared for adoption. Long post but all information on her is below. If you are interested please send me a private message, I don’t always see comments on here. Thanks.
Starbucks (I did not name her 🤦🏼♂️), but I have not wanted to change her name because I figured her adopted family would do that so I didn’t want to have her learn 3 different names in a short period of time. She turned two years old in December. She is considered a chocolate merle and has two different colored eyes. This girl lived a rough sad life. She basically lived her whole two years in a cage being used for breeding. We confirmed that she had at least two litters before she turned two years old, but there may have been others that we don’t know about. When we got her, she was underweight, had a double ear infection, skin infection from urine burns and had no clue what it was like to be part of the family. Other than being bred and raising puppies, she didn’t even know what it was like to just be around other dogs. Since having her, we have gotten all of her skin cleared up, as she has gained several pounds, we have her on a good food that she seems to be doing great. She had to have surgery on one of her ears because even after the infection was cleared up, she still had a lot of scar tissue and polyps in the ear. So they went in and cauterize all of that. It was so bad that she could not hear out of that ear because it was completely closed down in the canal. Now it is opened up and she can hear great. The Vet does not foresee any future issues as long as she is cared for properly. We did a cytopoint injection just as a precaution which she could have every eight weeks if needed and it would not hurt her. If it ends up being allergies, it will definitely help prevent future issues, but my Vet really feels that her medical stuff was all from neglect and the untreated infection. She is a very sweet and submissive dog. She absolutely loves people and kids. And she loves other dogs. She is doing really good on her crate training and we have her going about 6 to 7 hours with no accidents. we are still working on housebreaking. That will be something that might take a little longer just given her history, but she is very eager to please and is very smart so I think she will catch on and do very well as she continues to adjust and get settled. She loves toys, and chew bones, loves car rides, just can’t say enough about this sweet girl. She is a little smaller and about 21 to 22 pounds. Doing very well on leash walking, but still learning not to go back-and-forth from side to side in front of you. I’ve almost tripped a few times because of this. 😬
She comes spayed, up-to-date on all vaccines, Heartworm negative, microchipped, six months of flea/tick prevention, six months of heartworm prevention, some food, and a goodie bag with supplies to get you started. Also, the adopter gets a copy of all medical records I have so they can know everything that has been done and the price paid for it to be done.
