Story:

Dawn was a stray dog wondering around the factory Ms. Chen works in countryside. People around that area are not friendly to stray dogs and cats. Dr. Lin had been called to rescue a lot of dogs been poisoned and trapped by the gin traps over there. Ms. Chen wanted Dr. Lin to pick up Dawn and spay her before she gets pregnant. And then release her at the same spot so she knows her familiar surroundings.

Dawn was spayed the day Dr. Lin picker her up and recovered very well in just 3 days. The day Dr. Lin had finished work, he put Dawn at the back seat in the car and drove to the spot where Ms. Chen wanted Dawn to be released.

Dr. Lin opened the door and Dawn jumped off the car happily waiving her tails and just as Dr. Lin thought Dawn would be like other stray dogs running away from Dr. Lin and disappeared in the bush but Dawn didn’t. She was looking up at Dr. Lin’s face and patiently waited for something. Dr. Lin thought Dawn would walk away after he got into the car and started driving but Dawn was starting to chase the car. THAT’S IT!!! Dawn came back to the animal hospital with Dr. Lin that night and became one of the 46 rescued dogs in the vet clinic.

Dawn had been suffered from canine distemper and ehrlichiosis. She has undergone a series of treatment for 3 months and she is a perfect healthy girl now. Please see attached PCR test report issued by Taiwan Genome Sciences, INC which is accredited by a lot of countries.

Dawn loves being with people. She is a very affectionate, smart, calm and stable dog considering she is only slightly over 1 year old. Dawn knows a few basic commands such as sit, shake hand, change hand, lie down etc. We have never taught her that and we still don’t know where she has learnt it from.

Dawn has beautiful temperament and is truly a gentle dog. She likes to follow vet staff around at the clinic. And she always goes up to greet customers by wagging her tail so hard and gently touch customer’s hand with her muzzle. Dawn gets along very well with all dogs and cats. You won’t believe how many doggie friends she has now.

If you are looking for a wonderful family dog, Dawn will be the one. She will add so much fun into your family. Please email us your adoption application to qantas260270@yahoo.comThank you very much for considering giving Dawn a sweet forever home.
