Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Winnie came to BHS heavily pregnant. Now that her babies have left to find their own forever home, it is Winnie's turn. She is estimated to be between 5 or 6 years old, but don’t let that fool you because she can run fast. She has beautiful medium length soft fur. She does not mind taking a bath to get all pretty. She has beautiful big brown eyes that will just melt your heart. She enjoys being with people and being inside where she can relax. We are guessing at her breed. She appears as a German Shepherd but has the Husky talk. She has been in training with Susan Moon at Flat Creek Pet Care and Susan says, “Winnie is pretty easy to care for as she is housetrained, loves attention, doesn’t jump, keeps a clean kennel and waits patiently and quietly until you let her out”. She has played with other dogs but a met and great is recommended. She is learning to walk nicely on a leash but sometimes forgets and can pull a little hard.
Winnie has been dewormed, microchipped, tested for heartworm and is on preventive, spayed and has received the Distemper-Parvo combination vaccine, Kennel Cough vaccine and Rabies vaccine.
