About Hershey | |
|
|
Lovely Hershey is close to 35 pounds and we believe she is 3 years old. We found her on the streets of Baja walking or should we say limping her way around the busy streets looking for food in the trash cans. We approached her and without having food in our hands she limped as fast as she could to greet us. After we showed her a can of food she became our shadow and could not leave her behind to become one more forgoten life.
Since the first day she has been the picture of love, full of energy and always surprising the volunteers how smart she is with different activities and behaviors. She is a great nanny to our smaller and younger rescues.
We believe Hershey had a close encounter with a car as she had been limping and holding her leg. We thought she may not recover and would have be a special needs dog, but to our surprise even our vet tech surprise within a month she started to put weight on the leg and now 3 months later of being rescued she shows us how wrong we were by jumping as high as she can and run around with everyone else. What a little bit of love and great nutrition can do for the hurt body.
She would be a great companion for someone who would like a large breed stuck in a little body and Would be a great addition for a family or someone who would like to take her for long walks or the dog park.
Lovely Miss Hershey is a beauty with a lot of personality and is loved by all who meet her.
