Sheila #53

Saturday, December 8, 2007

 

My name is Sheila and I am about 13 years old.  I came to rescue in 2004 and was adopted by a wonderful family but my new mom had to move to a nursing home.  I was sadly given back to rescue.  When my foster mom and dad, Ruth & Keith, took me to foster I think they fell in love with me almost immediately.  Well, for Ruth's Christmas present she decided to adopt me.  I am so lucky.  I have the best mom and dad and many dogs to share my new home.  She says I am so sweet and I follow her everywhere.  I could not be happier and now I have a wonderful home to live out my golden years.  Thanks Sheltie Rescue!!!

I think Sheltie Rescue is great.  They found me the perfect home.  I am a very shy boy but have the best mom and dad with so much love to give.  They are being very patient with me and I am learning to come to people.   They are pleased with the progress I am making.  I love it here.  I am a big Sheltie boy but that doesn't matter to my mom and dad, just more of me to love.   I know now I have a home forever!!

How could life be any better for a little girl like me??  I love my new family.  When Denise first heard about me and saw my picture, she knew she wanted to adopt me.   After living in such terrible conditions, I feel like a princess in my new home.  I share my home with 2 other sister dogs.  I will never be hungry again.  Sheltie Rescue did a great job finding me the perfect home.   Mom says Shelties are the most loving dogs a person can own.  I am proving her right on that one!!

I am the baby in my new family but come spring I will share my new home with a baby.  I am excited.   When I came to rescue, I was so skinny and had worms and kennel cough.  Sheltie Rescue took such good care of me especially my foster mom.  She gave me a good start in what to expect from a loving home.  I have my own  mom and dad and love them so much.  Joshua and Elizabeth came to meet me at PetsMart and they knew almost immediately that I was the dog for them.   Life is good for this 13 pound Sheltie girl.

I have a new name, a new home and a new family, right in time for Christmas.  I think this is the best Christmas I have ever had.  I came to rescue very skinny and my foster mom and dad took such good care of me. They loved me as much as they love their own Shelties. I thank them for that.   Ben and Eric wanted to surprise my new mom, Carol, with a Sheltie for Christmas and I am the lucky one they picked.  My dad was in on the surprise too.  There were tears shed when she saw me.  I love my new family and have lots of toys to play with and I have been told I am getting a new life jacket, whatever that is, for riding in our boat this summer.  Life could not be better.  When my brothers, Ben and Eric, are away at college I am the only child.   Thanks to Sheltie Rescue I am healthy happy and loved unconditionally!!  I was called Lassie and my new name is Shelby.  I like my new name.
