Meet Lady Bug

This is Lady Bug, a patterdale mix less than a year old. Lady Bug's origin story is truly horrific...a neighbor heard a gun shot next door in the middle of the night and went out to investigate. The man next door was heavily intoxicated and shot his own puppy in the jaw. The man was yelling obesentities that he was going to go ahead and kill the puppy and the neighbor begged him not to, that they would take the puppy. The man agreed but said if the puppy ever came back he would "finish the job". The neighbors took the puppy and would like to have kept her but were worried about her safety should the man spot her again. They brought her to us. Poor Lady Bug must have been in inscrutiating pain -her jaw was barely hanging on. Depsite that, her tail never stopped wagging and she allowed our vet to stitch her up so she could recover enough to endure a more permanent solution. About 6 weeks later, Lady Bug underwent intense surgery to fix her jaw permanently. Thankfully the surgery was a complete success -other than some scars, you would never know what had happended to her, she has made a full recovery and is now looking for her happy ending! Lady Bug is super friendly and energetic. She needs to go to an active home - she would make a great jogging partner for someone! She loves everyone she meets but she might be too much for very small children -she would never do it on purpose but she might accidently knock a very small child over. Older children would be great! She is also good with other dogs, untested with cats. Lady Bug is up to date with shots, negative for heartworms/on prevention, spayed and crate trained.
