Adopted November 2007
Sydney was running about a small town for awhile and was very scared and skittish. Good people started to feed her and were finally able to catch her. She came to rescue for medical care and to find a new home. She was extremely scared and just wanted to run. However, her huge feet and sweet personality showed she was just a puppy. After only a week, she is relaxing and enjoying daily food and a safe place to sleep with lots of animal friends. She is doing infinitely better on the leash and doing very, very well in her crate. She is evolving into a wonderfully sweet dog. Sydney went for her spay and check up and they discovered a severe skin infection that we are treating with antibiotics, so hopefully she will be able to be spayed in another week or two (as of September 14, 2007). She needs a home that has the time to acclimate her to humans and learn how to trust and enjoy her new home. We have no doubts she will do very well, but her best start would be an attentive home with limited distractions. She has already been freaked out enough by being a stray, she needs to know the love and stability of a real home now.
