More About Sylvie 2

To see more photos click on "Silvie" in the "adoptable pet list" link.
Second Wind By Silvie has an amazing story to go with her unusual name. When she was just a wee pup her leg was trapped and her mother had to chew off her paw to save her. Miraculously she was rescued shortly afterwards by a lovely French woman, Silvie, and her husband. At barely 5 weeks old she lived on their sailboat, Second Wind, for 6 months until reaching Morro Bay. This couple asked us to help find her a home. Petite “Silvie” has 4 legs and 3 paws. This dainty 25 lb girl is extremely sweet natured, loves people and other nice dogs and can take walks, chase balls, rarely barks and sleeps the night through. She is “minimally” chewy and is just discovering the world beyond boats and beaches. She is spayed, has all her shots, and needs a gentle, caring home to help her explore this exciting new world.
Good news! Silvie may be a candidate for an orthotic paw! If she can be fitted for this new paw, Silvie will be able to walk normally and pain-free for the first time she can remember. We will be fundraising to pay for this, so that her new paw will be totally paid for, and not a burden for the new adopters.
Silvie got adopted! Yipee!
Pet has special needs

Sylvie 2 is up-to-date with routine shots, house trained and spayed/neutered.
