My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

I sat in a kill shelter for as long as I can remember with a shattered pelvis and both of my hips broken. I couldn't even stand. I sat there for months and finally, my time was up. I didn't even have any pain meds, but I had so much love to give. Every time a shelter employee came by, I wiggled in hopes of getting a moment of their affection. I adore human love! The only thing that got me through it was thinking of a forever home. I got rescued just in time and went straight to a vet for surgery. Now, I have brand new hips and am back to the wiggle butt I was born to be! I am still waiting for my forever home though. Won't you please consider letting me dance around with you and show you all the love I have to offer?
I am a HUGE KISSER and love to give smooches of gratitude all day long. I love other dogs, just ones that are really rambunctious scare me a bit, so I feel safer around more relaxed pups. I love toys and have so much fun throwing them around the yard. I also love laying and cuddling on the couch and could do that all day. I'm the most perfect girl, and I hope you will let me be yours!
If you're interested in Bessie, instead of emailing through this site, please fill out our adoption application at https://form.jotform.com/221395065454154.
For the right family, we will arrange transport. No home is too far away when it’s forever.
