Spirit – ADOPTED!!

Posted Nov 22, 2018 at 5:09 pm in Happy Endings, Latest News

ADOPTED!!  Spirit’s name truly defines her.  Spirit waited in animal control after being hit by a car, for an owner that would never come.  Her injuries were far more severe than first expected and resulted in emergency and intensive care.  Spirit suffered a shattered pelvis and a horrific de-gloving injury to her back leg.  After undergoing surgery to pin and plate her pelvis, she underwent continual bandage changes in an effort to heal her leg wounds.  It was a long journey, but she never complained, despite how painful it had to be for her.  The skin has grown in on her leg, but the hair is a hit and miss.  Her tail is in constant motion and she now loves to run and chase the other dogs in her foster home.  She is an excellent kisser.  Spirit has worked hard on housebreaking, but has shown no interest in the dog door.  She will, however, use the bell hung by the patio door or alert you by standing on the mat.  She is about 2 years of age and 10 pounds.  We are seeking an exceptional home for her.  A fenced yard is a must, as she loves being able to run.  Due to winter weather and limited transport options, we are seeing a local/regional adoption.  Preferences also include a friend for her to play with and someone who is home more often, as she does have a bit of separation anxiety, which is slowly improving.  Children are okay if they are older, due to her small size.  If you are looking for a dog that has a real zest for life and living every moment to the fullest, Spirit is the one for you.  For more photos of this special girl, click her album:  https://ImageEvent.com/coram/spirit

    I live with my husband and our 8 year old Rat Terrier, Lyla. We are recent empty nesters and are worried about Lyla missing our college age children. We are looking to adopt another Rat Terrier as we have fallen in love with the breed. We live about 40 miles from Green Bay. We would like to meet Spirit when she is available for consideration.
