My story

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

Shirley was born with a birth defect called a club paw, and when she came into Col. Potter the vet decided that leg was causing more harm than good and took it off. It doesn't bother Shirley a bit, she races around and jumps on couches and over ottomans and doesn't give it a second thought. She was surrendered to a big city shelter mostly because she didn't like the children she lived with: they were too unpredictable and wild and made her nervous. It's not that she doesn't like people, she loves everyone she meets, as long as they are grown people. Shirley loves to play with toys and keeps trying to play with the resident 15 year old westie, with limited success. She would be happy with a doggie sibling who likes to wrestle and play rough. Shirley has quickly become housebroken, no accidents in over a week. She sleeps quietly in her crate at night and loves to go for walks. Don't let her 3-leggedness cause you concern, it causes her absolutely none. She is a wonderful dog!
