Alicent's Story
When we accepted Alicent and two of her familiy members from a neglect/hoarding case, we knew the dogs entering our care would have been through a lot of suffering. Having spent their entire lives on a chain outside, these survivors were starving for food and attention. <br/><br/>They all three were also heartworm positive. Heartbroken but not suprised, we buckled in for the long haul with these girls - our protocol is that all dogs must be heartworm negative before they leave our care!<br/><br/>That was 8+ months ago. The difficult part is over now - the months of kennel rest, medications, injections, the waiting game. It's now time for Alicent to find her forever home! <br/><br/>Alicent's littermate has gone on to thrive in a home with children of various ages, another dog, and cats, and we think Alicent may do well in a similar environment. Alicent keeps a clean kennel, is improving her leash skills, and is a friendly, happy, and silly dog who loves to play, run, and enjoys her treats. Because she had been kept in isolation for so long, she was confused by the prospect of a doggy friend, but she now plays and bounces with the best of them. <br/><br/>Alicent enjoys soft beds, Nylabones, and will chew on a bone for hours. She has an old leg injury, but she does not let it stop her athletic prowess. <br/><br/>As office dog, Alicent is a dream companion. She is quiet, respectful of space, does not have potty accidents even with 8+ hours of office time, and refrains from counter surfing. She's happy to recieve attention, but she is equally happy to relax on her own and enjoy rolling around on the couch and in blankets while chewing on a stuffed bone. <br/><br/>If you think this affectionate, vivacious, and surviving soul might be a good fit for you and your family, please come and meet her! She's been at FFAA since the beginning of May 2025, and the sooner the better for her to move on to the next chapter of her life.
