Story
â¤ï¸ MEET BLACK BETTY — BAM-BA-LAM! â¤ï¸ Senior citizen. Professional eavesdropper. Part-time opera singer. Full-time cuddlebug. And those EARS?! Meet Betty, whose magnificent satellite dishes can pick up the sound of a treat bag opening three counties away! We're pretty sure she can hear a cheese wrapper being opened in the next ZIP code! But behind those extraordinary ears and that adorable silver face is a little girl with quite a story to tell. And believe us... BETTY HAS A LOT TO SAY! â¤ï¸ Sweet Betty found herself at the Hesperia Shelter with what appeared to be an abscess on her belly. The shelter diagnosed and treated her for mastitis, but when we saw that precious little gray muzzle and those soulful eyes, we knew we couldn't leave her behind. So Betty became one of Green Dog Foundation's newest rescues! We immediately arranged veterinary care to address her medical concerns, and within a few days, Betty was spayed. And thank goodness we did. During her surgery, it was discovered that Betty had PYOMETRA, a serious, potentially fatal infection of the uterus. Left untreated, pyometra can quickly become life-threatening. We shudder to think what might have happened if this sweet senior had remained at the shelter without receiving the surgery she desperately needed. But Betty wasn't ready to leave this world. She still had songs to sing, laps to occupy, and treat bags to monitor! â¤ï¸ And now? Our little BLACK BETTY — BAM-BA-LAM! is feeling so much better and making up for lost time! Betty is quite the little character! She's a TALKER. A SINGER. A tiny four-legged entertainer with a personality that's every bit as big as those ears! She's also an absolute lovebug. Betty adores affection and wants nothing more than to be close to her person. She's a little shadow who will happily follow you around the house, supervise your activities, and then curl up beside you for some serious snuggling. She's adorable, affectionate, funny, and full of personality. Betty walks nicely on a leash, gets along wonderfully with dogs of all sizes and ages, and rides well in the car. Although she does have one small request... She would prefer to ride in your lap, thank you very much! Betty is the kind of little companion who could bring so much happiness into someone's life, especially a senior looking for a loving friend to share their days. Imagine having this sweet little face greeting you every morning, following you from room to room, and keeping you company while you watch television or relax with a good book. And if you ever misplace the treats? Don't worry. Betty already knows where they are. But beneath all her funny little quirks is something truly special. Betty is a senior dog who almost lost her chance at a future. She's already survived a frightening ordeal, and now she deserves to spend the rest of her life being cherished. Her muzzle may be turning silver, but her heart is still pure gold. â¤ï¸ BETTY AT A GLANCE Age: Senior sweetheart Personality: Affectionate, vocal, funny, devoted, and full of character Favorite activities: Snuggling, singing, following her person, and monitoring suspicious treat-bag activity Other dogs: Gets along with dogs of all sizes and ages Leash manners: Walks nicely on a leash Car rides: Enjoys riding along, preferably close to her person Special talent: Hearing things nobody else can hear!
