I gave her a safe spot where she can get used to the rest of the household. She likes her kennel and will come in and out of it. She has seen both a groomer and been spayed without incident.

Story
Scruffie is an approx 5 year old, 18 lb probable lhasa apso mix. He was found as a stray. Here is what his foster mom says about him: Hi, I’m Scruffy! I was found running through the streets alone and terrified. My hair was matted and long, and I was so afraid. After my “capture,” I was given a wonderful groom and received all my vet care. I am finishing heartworm treatment now. I am 6 years old. I have one micro eye that I can’t see out of, but it doesn’t slow me down and will never cause any problems. I have discovered that I love cuddles and pets with my favorite people. It takes me a while to warm up, but once we’re friends, I’ll love you forever. Toys are so fun, and I play tug of war with my 40 lb foster sister really well. Sometimes I win. I really LOVE cats, too! It’s kinda my obsession. I gaze lovingly at my cat foster sisters and play chase with the youngest. I’m a sassy guy, and I have no problem setting boundaries, telling you how I feel, and playing my heart out. I’m happy to cuddle as well as give you space and do my own thing. I take treats gently and am working hard on potty training. I’m a lot of fun and will bring lots of love, Laughter & a mix of sugar and spice to your life.
