Rainy Days Penny Saved
"Penny"
Every once in a while there comes into your
life a Rescue so special that you can't help but let them snuggle
into your heart to stay.
Ric's special Rescue is Penny the Pug! She came
to us at 4 months old as an owner surrender. Apparently she was
dragging the family Shih Tzu around by the ears and the family
children were not helping the situation by keeping her wound tighter
than a clock.
She had had no shots, no wormings, no medical care
of any kind, and she had been weaned from her mother at 4 weeks
old. No wonder she had no canine manners --she was taken away
before she could learn any!
She has now been spayed, had to have all her baby
teeth pulled since she wasn't losing them naturally, has been
diagnosed with both bilateral canine hip dysplasia and stifle
OCD, and is on a constant diet to keep her svelte Puggish figure.
She thinks Autumn is her mama and they all think
she's a puppy than never grew up. She is 5.5 yrs old and doing
very well. She is the perfect traveling partner and loves road
trips of any distance.
