🩷🐾🩷Precious is Adopted!!🩷🐾🩷
What an amazing start to the new year!!!
Precious was being given away on facebook after her previous onwer broke her hip.
Everyone wanted to get her because she looked so cute. We asked to get her because we knew she would need time to adjust because she didn’t know what happened to her onwer, why she wouldn’t see her anymore?
She is 4-5 years old, was not socialized. She is sweet but even if you just tried to pick her up she would bite out of fear.
We sent her to our foster to help her heal. She missed her previous onwer, didn’t know what was happening and was confused. Then she went to an adoption trial. We sat at the person’s home that wanted to adopt her for 55 minutes, told her everything about Precious, that she would need time, don’t push her….This person didn’t listen, they wanted to love on her right away, they got bit many times because they wouldn’t quit trying to pick her up. They also wanted to clean her butt after she went potty, which at that time Precious didn’t even have a chance to know the person yet.
Then she claimed Precious needed a trainer as she was biting; because she wouldn’t give her even a minute to adjust.
We took Precious back, for a while we almost gave up on adopting her out as she still was not getting used to people after the adoption trial fiasco.
Then I took her back. I took her to petsmart and Hollywood feed to socialize her. Over time she started getting used to people but still would not let strangers pick her up. She did love to go to the adoption events though. She loves to walk on the leash, loves to meet people. She just wants to be respected.
Then our vet at Care More asked about her for her mother in law that is retired; they were looking for a small dog.
Even though she is now socialized much more she still needs a special person that will understand her.
Precious only lets respectful kids and even adults to love on her and that made me worry.
It has all worked out for a Christmas Miracle, she went to our vet for a trial, she loved her kids, slept on the couch with them until her mother in law came to meet her.
She just fit in perfectly, now she sits on the sofa with her mom that is retired and has all the time in the world for her. They do things together like they’ve been together forever!
Every dog needs someone to love, to be home. Without the patience that our foster had working with her every day, this couldn’t have happened.
We are so happy to see Precious find her forever home!
Thank you never seems like enough in these situations that take a village to help an animal get to their happy ever after…
