Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Thelma is a 5 year old adorable mutt. According to Yappy Happy’s petfinder she was born at JoyceCharles' house on November 7, 2009. She is very timid as a result of living in that environment. She didn’t get the proper socialization she needed in her early years. She will never be a normal dog but is making progress. She will now let me pick up her. She walks around the house wagging her tail and it's always upright. She will walk around if the new people in the house are sitting on the couch. If they are standing up or go near her she barks. We’re working on this. She’s spayed and heartworm negative. She’s up to date on shots, flea and heartworm prevention. We have no idea on her breed, just super cute. She barks at the cats if door is closed but doesn’t do anything if she’s loose around the kittens. I think she’s just watched and learned by the others acting up. Thelma's mother is a chihuahua. Because Thelma came from a hoarding situation, she is not yet housebroken but we are working on that. If you are interested in Thelma, please email animalhelperneworleans@gmail.com.
