You may remember Honey from an earlier listing. Diagnosed with severe skin allergies, she needs a series of serum injections to raise her immunities. Her new parents did not fulfill their responsibilities for maintaining her medical needs, so Honey is back up for adoption looking for caring parents who can manager her illness properly. Luckily, her condition is improving very well. The vets are excited to see how fast she has recovered. They feel the recovery is remarkable for a dog of her years. She has a couple of age-related internal matters, none of which should impact quality or length of life. She is up to, as of mid-November, 69.7 lbs, which is a marked improvement from the 53 lbs she weighed when returned for adoption. Her allergy injections are now at a once a month interval.

Honey is between 9-10 years, red, cropped, docked, and spayed. Honey was certainly aptly named and is a very sweet and loving dog. She’s a little bit shy at first, but she loves attention and soaks it up like a sponge. It does not appear that she has been taught basic commands, having been strictly an outdoor dog 24/7 for the past 4-5 years, although she walks very nicely on a leash and loves to survey the neighborhood. She also enjoys riding in the car, lying in the sun, and hanging out with her canine foster sister when foster Mom is gone. She is not at all aggressive towards other dogs, but wouldn't enjoy the company of a dog that would pester her. She doesn’t currently have much contact with children but would most likely be fine with children of at least school age. Even though she has been an outdoor dog for a long time, she loves being an indoor dog! She will be a delightful companion and would probably prefer to be somewhere where she doesn't have to be left alone for long stretches, since she does experience some mild separation anxiety. She is a classic red Doberman and deserves to be placed with kind, loving and patient people who will give her time and attention.

Contact Information:
Because of Honey’s skin sensitivity, Doberman Rescue of Colorado would prefer to place her in an area where fleas, mites, and allergens do not thrive.

Honey's Happy Tail! 3.3.2004

It is my extreme honor and pleasure to inform you that Honey has found her forever home!!!! As I mentioned a few months back WHITNEY was a special dog and a true ambassador for the breed. WELL, Kristi and troy, who adopted and loved Whitney, have opened up their home and hearts to yet another special needs senior. I cannot describe the pleasure and joy this brings me, our group, and hopefully all of you. We have worked a long time for this day. We have overcome more than a few peopleitfalls and obstacles and this happy day is our reward!!!

Chuck
