Marvelous Missy!

This is beautiful Missy (FKA Jesse) who is making her forever home with Dot and Larry and living in MA.  Dot tells us that Missy arrived at their house trembling with her tail between her legs.  Her former owner of two years had taken her to the vet thinking it was time to put her to sleep because she was wound up despite the multitude of anti-anxiety drugs she was given.  Fortunately, the vet was familiar with SGRR and talked to the owner about bringing her to SGRR.

Little by little Missy has relaxed. They have stopped the drugs and given her lots of love!! They learned that she was noise phobic to storms and high flying jets.  Now after 11 weeks she is an entirely different dog. She is still worried about storms and jets but no longer terrified by them.  Missy is the belle of the dog park, greeting all the dogs and the people. Everyone there knows her and comments on what a happy dog she is. She loves to run, play fetch and swim - all with a bouncy enthusiasm. She is surprisingly very well trained and responsive to commands. She is so so sweet and loves belly rubs.

Dot and Larry just adore her and they cannot figure out how anyone could think she was "wound up". They feel so lucky that she landed on their doorstep. They have promised her a wonderful life from now on!!

We are so happy for Missy and her wonderful new forever family. Happy life to Missy!
