Sugar (Bobbie 07-252) [1]

Sponsored by: Penny Parker 

4-29-2007: Bobbie arrived in Minnesota last night after a long journey from a puppy mill in Missouri. She was rescued along with 20 other adult dogs and several puppies. Bobbie spent the night at another volunteer’s home, since we were unable to meet the transport crew last night.

Bobbie is 1.5 years old and is on the smaller side. She is absolutely adorable! She has curly hair and her tail is bobbed (that’s where her name comes from). Apparently a bulldog chewed it partially off when she was a young puppy. As expected, she is still quite timid. However, she is very curious and has spent most of the afternoon out of her crate exploring her new surroundings. I think she’s being quite brave for all she’s been through. We will continue to let her become acquainted with us and teach her that only good things come from humans. We will take Bobbie to visit the vet this week and will keep you posted on her progress!
