Description:

Just Arrived!

Delta came from a rural puppy mill. She had never lived a day of her life as a normal pet in a home, with the love and attention a pet deserves. It is possible she had never even been petted in her life. She was rescued from that terrible life, but now she needs a special family to help her learn what it is like to be a dog.

Because Delta was from a rural breeder, she was not potty trained when she arrived. She will also need help with socialization and adjusting to life in a home environment. Fenced yards and a home with other stable dogs to show them the ropes are best for dogs coming from this type of situation.

Find out how rewarding it can be to teach this poor girl how to love and be loved.

UPDATE FROM DELTA'S FOSTER: Delta is a sweet sweet girl. She is cautious with people but will snuggle forever once you put her on your lap. She loves to sit on the couch and watch quietly as the world goes by. She loves other dogs from big to little. She is not a barker even when startled. She probably has never been in a house before and didn't understand what a leash was. She is catching onto the leash but it will be a while before she is a walker. She loves the outdoors and isn't eager to come in even when it is cold and stormy. She isn't housebroken but should be easy to train. She has good control of her bladder and is eager to please. Right now we are working on getting her to understand what a treat is and how wonderful they are. Once she conquers that, the training will be fast as she is a very smart little girl. She is very brave but still a little shaken with her new environment. She is an ideal family member for a home with adults or older children. As cute as the pictures of her are, they don't do her justice.
