Sweetie's Story

****** IN FOSTER****** (if you are interested in meeting her, please complete an application to adopt and we can set up a meeting for you to meet her)<br/><br/>Meet SWEETIE! – A Sweet 10 year old 82lb Senior Who’s Ready to Shine in Her Forever Home!<br/>Looking for a companion who will bring joy, comfort, and plenty of love into your life? Meet Sweetie, a resilient and sweet senior dog who’s on the mend and ready to find a family to call her own!<br/><br/>Update from her foster family:<br/>When we first welcomed Sweetie, she faced some challenges. She was struggling to move and even found it difficult to stand long enough to eat due to being overweight. But with the help of some thyroid medication, a little TLC, and some consistent care, she has made remarkable progress!<br/><br/>Over the past two months, Sweetie has shed a significant amount of weight, and her true personality is finally starting to shine through. She’s an incredibly well-house-trained girl who’s quickly becoming more active and playful. Short walks are a highlight of her day, and she loves car rides and rolling around in the grass, enjoying the simple pleasures of life. Belly rubs are a must, and she can often be found with a peanut butter-filled Kong, happily snacking away.<br/><br/>One of the best things about Sweetie is how easy she is to medicate—she takes her thyroid medication mixed with her food without a fuss, making it stress-free for both of you. She walks wonderfully on a leash and would love a daily stroll with her new family.<br/><br/>While she’s still learning to interact with other dogs (especially since the cold weather has kept us indoors), she’s shown a little reactivity when meeting new pups. However, she corrects quickly with some encouragement and continues to improve with each encounter.<br/><br/>She’s the perfect companion for someone who isn’t looking for a high-energy dog but still wants the joy of a loving, active senior dog. Whether you’re looking for a lazy day snuggle buddy or a mellow walking partner, Sweetie is a great fit.<br/><br/>One last thing: if you’re looking for a dog who will keep your home clean, be warned— Sweetie has declared war on the vacuum cleaner. Whether it’s on or off, it’s her arch-nemesis, and she’s not afraid to show it!<br/><br/>If you’re ready to give Sweetie the forever home she deserves, come meet her today. She’s waiting for a loving family to help her continue her journey to becoming the happy, healthy girl she was always meant to be.
