We got a call the there was a dog running loose for almost two weeks with no luck on getting her, but one of our officers was able to get her and now here she is, meet Aquamarine! Aqua is around 2 years old, and a Retriever mix. She came in very thin, and we are currently trying to get her weight up and we are happy to report she has a great appetite! Aquamarine is pretty nervous here, and loud sounds tend to startle her. She is slowly coming out of her shell, and walks well on leash. Aquamarine is recommended to go to an adult only home, due to her general fear/nervousness.
