This brave girl had two surgeries – she was spayed and had her cherry eyes repaired. And when she got home, she was pretty out of it, so her mom tucked her into a cozy bed for a long and sound sleep.
Shanny has quickly learned that post-surgery care is the best care – more snuggles, more treats and more kisses. She even has her own healing crew – her canine foster siblings, Prim and Muddy, who have loyally been offering moral support (and hoping for some of those extra treats).
One thing Shanny has not figured out is the cone of shame. She mostly stands there like a confused little satellite dish staring at the floor, waiting for a signal to explain why she’s dressed like this.
Let’s send this adorable girl some healing vibes – and maybe some cone-wearing fashion tips!
Shanny is being fostered in Cambridge, ON, and is not yet ready for adoption.
BTRC was contacted by a shelter about an eight-month-old Boston Terrier who was surrendered because her owners did not have the time to dedicate to her training and need for stimulation (anyone who has ever met a Boston puppy knows they require lots of play time). So, Shanny made the trip from Québec to her foster home in Ontario.
Looking at this picture, it’s clear that she’s much happier after her shelter break. Her foster mom has been working on Shanny’s manners and teaching her that not every dog wants to play all the time. And while she gets an A+ on crate training, housebreaking still needs some work. With her foster mom’s patience and experience, and some good doggy role models in the home, we’re confident Shanny will be a fast learner.
Spay surgery and cherry eye repair are in the near future, so this adorable girl will have a very full schedule soon. In the meantime, she plans to convince her foster sister, Prim, that she is indeed BFF potential and not just a pesky younger sibling.
