Sasha 06-277 [1]

6/28/06: Sasha is a Golden mix from a full shelter in Missouri. With the help of the shelter workers and rescue volunteers, Sasha and some other dogs made their way safely to RAGOM last weekend. Sasha spent her first day in Minnesota with a temporary foster family. She was stinky and matted, so they cleaned her up and started cutting out her mats. We are still working on removing the mats, so it looks like she has been given a bad hair cut. Her temp foster family described Sasha as sweet, quiet, and well behaved. Sasha has been in her new foster home for a few days and she continues to show those same qualities with us. She did great with the dogs at her temp foster home, as well as with the two resident dogs here.

Sasha's records from Missouri have not arrived yet, so we don't know anything about her background. She doesn't appear to know her name or any commands. She has been limping on her left rear leg since she arrived in Minnesota. We will be taking Sasha to the vet as soon as possible to get her leg checked.
