Sylvia
We believe she is a Dutch Shepherd mix
She’s about 70lbs. She was living at a gas station, surviving on scraps but mostly starving. Once it became obvious that she was pregnant people in the community started to notice her and reached out to us for help. She had to be trapped because she was so afraid. I'm sure she suffered a lot of abuse as a street dog and didn't know humans can be kind. Once we trapped her, she just melted into a heap of love and sweetness. She had her 10 babies just a few days later. She is ok with mild mannered dogs who won't be in her face, harassing her. Her best friend while in foster was a 20lb submissive female, Cora. She has not done well with hyper or dominant dogs. She is house and crate trained. Hw neg (miracle), spayed, utd. Approx 2-3yrs.
