My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Thelma was thrown out of a moving car and had severe internal injuries. ALL of her organs were pushed into her diaphragm (chest) and she was dying. Surgery was done to put all her organs back where they belong & save her life.
She has recovered wonderfully from her surgery and is truly a miracle baby. Her chances for survival were very low but we took a chance and spent over $2000 for a surgery to save her life.... and to the surprise of all her doctors... she has recovered and is acting like a puppy again.
Thelma loves to cuddle, and loves to give kisses. She is a lap dog and will stay on your lap and give you love. But she also loves to play and run and has so much energy.
