Story
Ramona has lived a tough life and is looking for a family who understands that, and will treat her like the princess she is. Ramona came to Cameron Animal Rescue from Associated Humane Society of Newark when they did not have space for any more animals. Her history is unknown, but her body and her behavior tell a tough story. She was obviously well loved at some point, because she enjoys petting and attention and freely asks for it. But she is also very scared of sudden movements, unexpected touch around her head and neck, and any pressure on her sides. She is much more nervous with men. She knows commands - including sit, stay, and paw- and expects treats after performing. She is also perfectly house-trained. But she can be very scared and defensive if someone reaches into her crate, or when a leash is removed from her neck. Although she gives warnings if she is scared, if those warnings are ignored, she will nip. Therefore we are looking for a home with no young children and experienced owners. Ramona is approximately 5-7 years old, and is strong and healthy in many ways, but will need future medical care for some issues. She arrived with such severe, painful ear infections that she needed to be sedated to have them treated. Fortunately they are improving significantly; unfortunately she will need long-term treatment and management for her ears and potential allergies. She also arrived with an open wound on her face under her eye. It is visible in her photos, but it is almost healed and will not need further care. Her spay will be included in her adoption. She has few remaining teeth, but those will also be cleaned as part of her adoption. Ramona's adoption will also include- full series of DHLPPi (distemper), Bordetella, and Rabies vaccines; fecal testing and deworming; heartworm and flea/tick preventive for 1 month; spay; microchip; 30 days of free insurance. Ramona is a special girl. She just needs to find the right family who understands her, and will give her the time, patience, and love that she needs to feel safe.
