New Rescue!!

Show Off Your Dog
  • :Thanks everyone…... Luckily Irene took one good look at us, and decided not to mess with us... at least not completely. The local joke is that the government tried to charge her tax!!! She is currently passing further north so will affect the north coast but not directly. Im in Santo Domingo in the south so really just very light rain right now and no wind at all..
    Here she is after grooming!!! :o She is totally naked!! ... doing well, eating a lot today, yesterday she was still scared and wouldnt eat much.... I might name her Irene if I keep her, I cant bring myself to name her yet,.. but she looks like Rosita to me...:p

    Ill say one thing.. it feels really weird to walk a dog that actually heels!!!! Its hilarious , she is perfectly heeling right next to me and follows my every move and Ayo is pulling me all over the place, after anything that moves or catches his eye!!.. But,,.. its also a little annoying that she heels constantly, even at home, which Ayo never does, he just does his thing, she follows me everywhere, from the kitchen, to the bathroom, to the bedroom, everywhere!:)

  • aw, what a cute little naked dog! i'm so glad you've taken her in and cared for her.
    (and suki won't heel on a walk at all, but is always under foot in the house. and guests just love it when she follows them into the bathroom!)

  • Now that she's trimmed up, looks like there may be some Poodle in there!

    Hope her owners have lost her and not that she was 'dumped,' she sounds like a sweetheart.

  • Yeah,.. it makes more sense that shes got some poodle cause they are more common here, but most poodles have the tighter curly hair, and hers was long… soo, well see! She is really tiny also only about 9.5 inches tall....

  • I think you are right…..she looks more like a "Rosita" than an "Irene". It would seem she is anxious to keep tabs on you. Perhaps she knows she is a lucky girl! Glad the hurricane passed you by......it is a category two now, might be big trouble for somebody, depending on how it tracks.

  • Yep.. looks like the Bahamas… and Turcs and Caicos...

  • She cleans up nicely :)

    Could she be a Poodle with some Maltese thrown in?

  • haha She is adorable. You are amazing for helping this little girl out. She does look like a Rosita! Glad to hear that you are safe from the storm

  • Thanks, yeah actually I was looking online and she looks a lot like spme of maltipoo pictures, and also like some Maltese pictures… She is somewhere in there!!!
    The storm is gone, but now we have a lot of strong wind!! Some branches on the ground and everything. But no real damage...

  • Glad you posted, I was thinking about you today, hoping all was OK.

    You are in Florida… a sad hotbed of byb/puppymill country. Yep agree with the rest, looks basenji to me too. You might contact Pam Hamilton because she'll know if you are in the hoarder area. I'll ask her to check in here.

    I'll try to get more pictures - my camera is old and he tends to come to me when he sees it so all the pictures end up blurry. And I'm still waiting for the "two are easier than one" part ;) How do you work on training one when the other sees treats being given out or take them for a walk when each wants to go a different (opposite) way? Oh wait, it is easy when they are napping :D
