Bertha's Story

A mother and her 13yr old son arrived at the local mall to do a little shopping. As the 13yr old got out of the car Bertha came bounding up to him and nuzzled his hand asking for pets. He reached down and petted her, distracted from finishing getting out of the car. Next thing he knew, Bertha was climbing into the car with him for some much needed air conditioning (it was one of those days that it was REALLY hot). They obviously couldn't continue their shopping trip, so they got back into the car and drove the dog into town while calling us. The entire car ride Bertha was in the backseat but had her head resting on the shoulder of the 13yr old in the passenger seat in front of her.<br/><br/>When we met Bertha we put a leash on her and she willingly came with us. She loaded into the animal control truck like a champ with a little just a tiny bit of help up the ramp. She's been calm and peaceful in her kennel, wags at the staff as they approach and doesn't have issue with her neighboring canine friends in the kennels next to her. She is pretty good on a leash unless she REALLY needs to go to the bathroom and is in a hurry, or if something scares her and she's getting out of dodge.<br/><br/>Because of her size we wouldn't recommend her for a home with really little kids, unless they're familiar with giant breeds that aren't aware of just how large they are.Interested in adopting?
