Story
We saw her in our headlights, running in the middle of the road ahead. We suspect someone had just dumped her, out of their car, and she was trying to catch up to them. Then we saw a truck coming in the opposite direction, and it hit her, never slowing down. We jumped out of the car to check on her as she laid in the road. We took her home and saw one injury on her side, and about a dozen old scars on her head, face, legs, and body, and she showed signs of previously being bred. We agreed, this day would be day 1 of a new life. We named her Bunny and in-the-weeks after, we learned several things about her:1) She loves deeply for her person and will be your constant companion. Her face searches your face with love, seeking soft gentle hand touches or kisses. She will join you on the couch, chair, and bed, as her favorite spot is snuggling close to you- blankets are a plus. Once she settles in, you will hear a big sigh of contentment. We would like for her family to be retired, or work from home- home more than gone. Remember, her whole existence is about being with you.2) She is happy and active, loves to play with fuzzy or squeaky toys, and races around the house/yard as she is so excited for life, her meals and the chance to help you with your daily activities. She is incredibly athletic. She is a bit of a goof ball and will keep you laughing/smiling. 3) She is very smart and loves to please- easy to redirect if she is not complying with your wishes. Just the sound of your voice will alter her state of mind. 4) She doesn’t know how to play appropriately with other dogs – she’s rough and a bit of a bully so we would recommend that she be an only dog. 5) She cannot be crated ever due to extreme anxieties and will hurt herself trying to escape. This is not a problem for us as she is housebroken and is not destructive. 6) Walking on a lead is still a project in process. She pulls, crisscrosses the sidewalk, but is easy to correct. We walk her in a harness. We love Bunny and want her new home to make a lifetime commitment.To make the best possible match for you and the pet, please follow the link below to complete the Adoption Application.
