My name is Sharma!

💛 Meet Sharma — The Golden Girl Who Laughs in the Face of Medical Drama 💛

Every rescue has that dog — the one whose medical chart is the size of a novel but whose spirit shines brighter than everyone else’s.
For us, that girl is Sharma.

Sharma may technically be a “walking medical case,” but don’t you dare tell her that. She is far too busy being adorable, pawing at you for more pets, and living her best passenger-princess life to worry about anything as boring as conditions. If attitude cured illnesses, this little queen would’ve been discharged with a clean bill of health on day one.

✨ What Makes Sharma Magical:

Affection Expert: If you stop petting her, she will politely — but firmly — tap you with her paw like, “Hello? My spa treatment is not over.”

Senior Stunner: Soft, slow, and gentle. She moseys on walks, enjoys cuddles, and radiates calm sunshine vibes wherever she goes.

Passenger Princess: Loves car rides and sightseeing. We’re not certain how well she sees the scenery, but she looks adorable pretending.

Kid-Friendly: Sweet, gentle, and unbothered. As long as you aren’t rough, she thinks you're great.

Dog Neutral: She’ll sniff and move on… unless it’s mealtime, then she simply bulldozes politely through the crowd.

Crate Trained… But Upgraded: Sleeps in a bassinet in her foster home because queen things only.

💛 Her Medical Reality — Told With Love:
Sharma has quite a bit going on, but she handles it all with grace and a wag. She has:

Dry eyes (KCS) — managed with daily gel drops and meds.

Chronic ear infections — may need long-term cleanings or treatments.

Chronic skin infections — currently on antibiotics and already improving.

A heart murmur — on stable meds that help her feel good.

A little cough — likely tied to her heart/allergies and handled with meds.

Severe dental disease — will need a dental once she’s stable.

Hind-end weakness (pug neuropathy) — slow-moving but she still gets around with determination.

Some lab changes — being monitored but improving as her infections heal.

Potty training? She tries her very best. With her health issues, she may need frequent breaks, but this girl is dedicated and still makes it outside most of the time.

✨ In short:
Sharma is soft, sweet, snuggly, gentle, and absolutely full of life. She’s the kind of dog who makes you slow down, breathe deeper, and appreciate the small moments — the warm naps, the tiny tail wags, and the way she leans into your hand like she has loved you forever.

She’s not looking for perfection — just a family with patience, consistency, and hearts big enough to love a golden senior girl who gives that love back tenfold.
