Fergie has been adopted!

     This beautiful brindle girl is Fergie. She is about one year old, spayed and sweet as can be. Her favorite thing to do is play with her canine friends (she ADORES dogs) and love on her human handler. She knows sit, down and is working on stay. 
 
Fergie's story is heart breaking yet warming at the same time. She went missing from her Dulzura home in September. She had been missing about two months when she arrived as a stray on 11/29/2011 at the County Animal Shelter in Bonita.
While lost, Fergie was apparently hit by a car. By the time she reached the shelter, an injury had healed improperly and she could not use her right rear leg. She was also underweight and dehydrated. Her leg had to be amputated to eliminate her constant pain, a surgery that was made possible by the County’s all-donation Spirit Fund.  Her current owner decided he no longer wanted her so, for now, she calls the Carlsbad Shelter home.
     Nothing holds this amazing animal back. She is full of energy, enthusiasm and has nothing but love to give. Her ego was not harmed by her owner giving her up, it is most likely the best situation for her. Coming from someone who owns a tripod pittie, I know the connection and understanding that can be had between Fergie and her future human companion, we just need to find the perfect owner. If you think that is you, please contact me or go to the Carlsbad Animal Shelter to meet Miss Fergie. All she needs is someone to love, understand and exercise her to her full potential so she can live out the rest of her life as God intended. 
Her ID number is A1392900 and tag number is N467

Maple

     Meet the wonderful Ms. Maple. She is the sweetest little old lady at what the shelter thinks to be about 8 years old. Don't let her age fool you though, this girl still has a lot of spunk! Her attitude toward both dogs and humans is very playful and loving. She knows sit, down and walks very well on leash. Maple is a big fan of stuffed animals and after she does a lap around the yard with one in her mouth she always gives it to me, very willing to share. 
     I am not sure where this precious dog came from or how she ended up at the shelter, but I do know she deserves a loving home to live out the rest of her life in. I worry about her fate if we do not find her a forever home soon.
     If you or someone you know is interested in adopting Maple, please leave a comment here or contact the Carlsbad animal shelter directly. Her ID number is A1444561 and tag number is N327. Maple is a fantastic pittie that has nothing but love to give.
