Dear Abbie...

I don't have time for advice-giving right now...

  
We're going camping!!  Feeding wildlife IS prohibited... Feeding Dobe-Ladies is OK!!

 
Home again!  Time for BeautyRest and dreams of a Forever Family...

Abbie is a sweet, 9-year-old girl who is looking for a place to land after a whirlwind of a life, and we only know part of her story. She came into rescue 4 years ago and immediately required surgery to empty her gut of several things she had eaten that were not going to pass through on their own. After recovering from surgery, she required heartworm treatment and therefore spent quite some time in her foster home. She was adopted, and recently returned to Bluegrass because her owner could no longer care for her. Prior to her return, Abbie had another surgery to remove a mammary tumor. The tumor was not biopsied; therefore, we do not know if it was cancerous. Abbie sleeps very well through the night but overall, acts like a much younger dog, and is ready to play whenever you are! She loves her walks, and frankly could use more leash training, but for her, there is nothing better than being outside with her person. She becomes very excited when she knows she is going outside! Sometimes it’s hard to put on shoes because she is *so close* you can’t see your shoes to tie them. Even in the back yard, she’ll dart out and run around and sniff, come back joyfully to see you, then run around and sniff some more! Abbie is a very needy girl who loves to be as close as possible to her person. She so appreciates every kindness you show. However, she understands when you ask her to go lie down. Although she would prefer to be in your lap, if you have a good bed for her, she will lie down there. Abbie loves people, especially children. However, she should not go to a home with smaller children due to the risk of knocking them down. She’s also very good with dog-savvy cats, though in her exuberance she may surprise them (“Play with me! Play with me! Poke, poke, poke”).

Special Needs If Any: None.

Geographic Adoption Area: Kentucky and surrounding states but will adopt outside that area if a home visit can be arranged and the people are willing to travel to meet the Dobe in their foster home.

The Sponsor A Senior program helps Seniors by raising funds for their rescue programs. This helps offset some of the additional costs that come with caring for a senior (diet, medications, supplements, etc.). Please read more about this program on the Sponsor A Senior page.

Miss Abbie is looking for a sponsor! The cost to sponsor a Senior Dobe is $40 per month or $480 per year. You can sponsor a Senior for one month, one year, or somewhere in between. To sponsor Miss Abbie, use the PayPal button below or visit the Sponsor A Senior page for instructions on sending a check. Thank you for any help you can give, it is MUCH appreciated!
