FAITH
AND HOPE
Faith
and Hope, we think, are a mother daughter team respectively. To
be crude, Faith is the fat one. She weighs 103 pounds, and that
is just unheard of for a female Dobie. Faith is also the one who
will grab you by your heartstrings first.
These
girls were confiscated from their former home because of neglect.
They had no shelter and no water. Imagine how that feels on a
hot day in a tropical climate or these days, in a cold winter's
night. Moreso, these two have had little interaction with people
on a day-to-day familial basis...what they got during their short
stay at Fort Doberdale, they soaked up and appreciated. Before
that, they were left outside without human interraction and desired
that desperately. These two are mama's babies. Or daddy's!
Hope
will try to find her way around an enclosure in the back yard,
and God willing, Faith will follow. That is probably why Faith
currently has a laceration on her beautiful face, but that is
being taken care of. Faith does everything in her power to follow
Hope, who just loves to investigate. But with some regular routine,
they both should settle down. I put Hope in a crate for a while
and overnight, and she did settle. Long times in the crate may
make her antsy and she might try to escape, but she's eager to
be part of the family and crate training is a part of that. Faith
just laid on the blanket that I put next to Hope's crate and she
enjoyed her night of warmth in a home. We want that to be an every
night event for these two lovlies. They need regularity and love.
Lots of both. Plus at least a 6-foot stockade fence enclosure
without any step-ups near that fencing.
They
are both heartworm negative and on monthly preventative, are up-to-date
on vaccines, and are spayed. Woohoo!
We
are working on getting pounds off Faith. They need to be placed
in a home without little children because they are very big. Just
click here to look here at the story of taking them to their
foster home and how big Hope is next to my big boy, Luigi!
If
you are special and can work with these lovely and special all
natural red gals (tails included - yay!)...then please fill
out our application and send it to us at...dobermannrescue@earthlink.net
Faith
and Hope are fostered in Lee county.
