Dora Rat Terrier Matthews, NC

Hi, my name is Dora and I am gorgeous, sweet and fuuny!  I was found wandering the cold streets and it was a struggle due to my two front legs.  My two front legs have a deformity that the vets are not sure if I was born that way or there is another reason. I walk with my front end close to the ground as if I am crawling. On the outside, my legs look fine but because of the way the bones developed, I am unable to walk on them the regular way.  I can jump, bounce, run and climb on the furniture.  I am small, sweet and gentle.  I weigh around 6 lbs.  I want nothing more than to be loved.  I will follow your every step just to be close to you.  I like other dogs and I like to play with them.  I have 3 canine siblings at my foster home and I enjoy bouncing around the house with them.  The good Samaritan who found me took me to the shelter where I sat shivering and scared.  I did not have much of a chance because this shelter euthanizes special needs like me.  One of the volunteers recognized my wonderful disposition and asked S.A.F.E.  to give me a chance at finding a forever home.  Please look beyond the physical and realize all the love that I have in my heart.  I want to share that love with you!  If interested in giving me a forever home, complete an application at www.safeanimalhaven.org  Thank you!
