She is very pretty...She seems like she would be a really seet baby...I hate to hear that she has all those health problems.. Just to make things clear..I have a well respected kennel.I work with some of the very best breeders.We do our very best to produce health and stable dogs.When we do have a pup that has bad health problems,if who ever breeds them does not keep them.Then we only sell them to another kennel.That way we know they are getting the proper care they need.

She is sweet. I'm actually thinking that if she stays here long enough for us to teach her some manners, she'd be a great therapy dog, since she LOVES everyone. She is a little dog aggressive, but it's not bad enough that it can't be controlled, and I think it'll get better with some more work. She was found wandering with her leg "dangling" and taped up with electrical tape, and brought to the vets my mom works at, the techs there fell in love with her, but had to turn her over to AC for "owner claim period", then bailed her out when it was up. By then her leg was infected horribly and had to be amputated. Then she was placed in a home with someone we know, and 6 months later we found out she was diabetic. By summer she was doing well (that's when the above pic was taken), but this fall she started dropping her weight again. We thought she had something else wrong with her, and my mom paid out to have all sorts of tests run on her, but at the beginning of February we found out that her owner wasn't giving her her insulin and food at the right times, and by that point she was so malnourished that she couldn't even stand up. She's been here for over a month now, and has gained back all her weight (up to 46 lbs from 34 last month, and should be good at about 50). She's a great example of the breed, temperment-wise, tolerating two shots a day (sometimes three), and still being such a trusting little beast after all she's been through. Her diabetes finally seems under control again, so we're hoping that might help "fix" some of her skin problems. IP: Logged |

"When we do have a pup that has bad health problems,if who ever breeds them does not keep them.Then we only sell them to another kennel." I'm kinda confused here. Are you saying that when you produce a dog with health problems you sell them to other kennels and they are still bred? IP: Logged |

No,pups with health problems are not bred.They are sold to kennels for pets.Alot of kennels have a few that are just for pets. IP: Logged |
