Tennie's Story
UPDATE 8.29.96. She is here at Little Rhody And sweet as can be! She was introduced to me and wiggled alll the way to my car no accidents - no whining... Sat in the back and chilled all the way here What. A . DOLL !!!!!!! THIS is the kind of pal everyone needs in their life!!! <br/><br/><br/><br/>This is Tennie ... her name was Tennessee , but now the reminds me of whiskey. And although she is smooth and sweet and from Tennessee, we call her Tennie for short, <br/><br/>Tennie's parents apparently went through a divorce and gave her to a pal of theirs as NEITHER could afford to take her.<br/>THE PAL had a small child that woke up Tennie in a deep sleep when she stepped on her ....and she growled as many dogs would. <br/> That was it- OUT goes Tennie. <br/>Tennie was brought BACK to her initial owner. He swung right around and gave her to the animal hospital to be euthanized. IMAGINE?<br/>"Dr. M " refused to euthanize...... She is healthy and sweet and had a moment of a growl. ( I might, too if someone stepped on me in REM sleep!)<br/> OK so no Toddlers and uber young children.... but don't euthanize her for a simple mistake! Technically, it's the adults mistake as the child doesn't KNOW any better- NOR does the dog! And Adults should be aware that she is blind in one eye! <br/><br/> 'Dr M' Called his pal at Little Rhody ..... and well here she is! <br/>She is about 6 years old and blind in one eye. It was caused by a trauma very early in her days. We asked her what happened , but she won't tell us. It's not going to get better and she gets around just fine ... he is happy- go- lucky and the kind of dog people say " oh my Gosh K - this is the Best dog I have ever HAD!!!!" <br/><br/>She is Lyme + and we're treating her for that. (28 days of Anti-biotics)<br/>She is now current on vaccines, Heart worm negative on Preventions, for Heart worm , fleas and ticks. <br/><br/>She is an adoring, gentle gal. She will make an awesome " bear skin rug!!!LOL "<br/>We think that a older household will be better- at least with older children to start. She is about 65 pounds - she is a bit strong on leash, but we'lll start to work on that - <br/>She is as sweet as a peach with no pit! <br/>Fill an application today at https://littlerhodyrescue.org/adoption-form/<br/>***DON'T FORGET TO CALL. YOUR VETERINARIAN AND REFERENCES TO ALLOW THEM TO SPEAK WITH US !!!!!!!******
