Age:
6 years old (as of July, 2010)
Character:
I look like a little puppy! Actually, I am six years old. Sadly, those six years were very hard. I was kept as a breeding dog. Year after year I was bred. Naturally, I wasn’t well taken care of either. I have some inflammation in my cornea which needs medication. I also have some knee problems (too many years kept in a small cage). Really minor problems so I am lucky. Now all I need is my first loving home. I have never been a “pet” so everything is new to me. I am still afraid to go for a walk. When the staff put a bed in my kennel I was afraid of that too! I hope you will understand my past and be patient with me. Please consider giving me my first home!
Background:
A breeder went out of business. Someone volunteered to find new homes for the dogs but was unable to find homes for all of them. The remaining dogs came to ARK.
