Miss Pretty Girl has won over the entire neighborhood! The
couple next door keep treats in their cars just in case she
is outside when they are coming or going. The lady on the
other side knows our schedule so she waits to let her do out
so that he can see Miss Pretty. I think he and Miss Pretty
are dating, he is a gigantic yellow lab. They pass sticks
thru the fence he is always trying to fit his Kong ball thru
the fence for her as she runs up and down the fence line barking
like a dork. The barking of course is not for him it is for
his mom who feeds her treats. Miss Pretty has gotten really
good at basic commands but that is because she gets so much
practice from the neighbors.
I have discovered she doesn't have a human enemy. We have
had several people over for a couple of parties and she loved
EVERYONE! Her favorite time however seems to be when she can
just lay on the couch next to someone and relax. Of course
she also loves to go out in the back yard and just run....she
likes it even more if she knows someone is watching her. She
is a huge ham, if she can show off for you she will!
Also I don't know where Miss Pretty Girl came from but I am
sure the place she was before was not a nice one. A couple
of weeks ago I was bringing in the sunday paper and she took
off running like I was going to beat her with it. Well that
was not going to work for her foster dad and I so now the
paper is a game, it may not be an ideal game but she isn't
scared of the paper anymore. Now when I bring home a paper
she knows it is on.... I read an add and roll it up like I'm
going to hit her with it and she runs up and steals it out
of my hand and rips it to shreds. The way we look at it it's
therapy. She isn'st scared and we save money because I only
get to look at the sale adds once.

UPDATE 3/29/07
We did it!! Thank
you!! Pretty Girl will now have her much needed surgery. We
will update the site when it is done and keep everyone up
to date on her progress. Thank you from all of us at MABBR
to everyone for your generosity in helping us help this sweet
girl!
Pretty Girl needs your help. Our precious happy girl needs
surgery. Sadly Pretty has been diagnosed with Patellar
Luxation. What this means is her knee dislocates out of
joint, causing her not to be able to walk on it normally and
causing her pain. The effects of Patellar Luxation include
knee instability, pain, lameness, joint swelling and eventually
arthritis. If left untreated it could further deteriate and
cause a cranial cruciate ligament rupture. Which is even more
painful.
We love this sweetheart very much and want her to have the
best life possible, so we need to raise funds for her to have
surgery to repair her knee. We need to raise at least $800.

My
Story:
Miss Pretty Girl was found running down a busy street and a friend
for all dogs brought her to safety. She was skinny, missing hair
on her tail and back and had several open sores. The vet said she
had been on her own for a while.
Pretty for short. This beautiful girl loves everyone, and she hasn’t
met a dog she doesn’t like. She is currently staying in a
foster home with 2 other dogs and they all get along great with
supervision. Pretty loves taking naps on the couch, in the bed,
in the sun, or anywhere else you let her. There have been times
she has been found in bed with her head on a pillow and the blankets
pulled up over her.
Pretty is very smart she has learned so much since coming to foster
care. She can now play with toys(with out shredding them), she can
sit, and lay down. We are working on stay but she really doesn’t
like it because she wants to be right next to people so when you
start to walk away from her she wants to come too!
She wants a home and a family so bad. She deserves a family. She
is so good and so sweet. Please take the time to meet her and you
will fall in love.
