Little Miss Muffet~Adopted
Little Miss Muffet is a Black 7 year-old Female Toy Poodle. She is blind but that doesn’t stop her, heck it doesn’t even slow her down! She absolutely adores my children (Ages 4 and 6) when she hears them she just jumps and spins around waiting for one of them to come snatch her up… She is crate trained and appears to be housebroken if let out timely. She is being fostered in DeBary by Brittney Myers .
Now, I am sure most of you are saying to yourselves “That is one funny looking Border Collie!!!” and trust me, that was Gisele’s reaction as well… While going through a long list of dogs in need I said, “Gisele, that poodle is coming to me”, her reply “a Poodle, Really? Fine, but it is staying at your house…” Ok I have my reasons.
Growing there was a close friend of the family who’s uncle bred small dogs (Poodles, Boston’s, Chihuahua’s etc..) Being a young child and an animal lover, I absolutely loved going to play with the little Boston Terrier pups. Come on who could resist?
While visiting one afternoon we were approached by an old poodle we guessed to be probably 7 or 8 years old; she had no teeth was a matted nasty mess but that didn’t stop me from kneeling down to say Hello. The man approached us and says, “You want her take her home. She’s no good to me anymore, if I wasn’t so busy this morning I would have already taken care of her.” Confused we looked at him and asked “Taken care of her?” We could have never prepared ourselves for his response.
You see she had been bred and delivered 4 purebred puppies, some were still born and she killed the remaining litter mates (obviously, something wasn’t right with them, she was just being a mother dog), but because she had destroyed the remaining puppies, nothing but money in his eyes, she was useless to him and only costing him money so his intent was to destroy her as well. Needless to say, we went home with a poodle that evening.
After some much needed vetting and groomed we learned she was 9, she was blind, had 3 teeth in her mouth and was partially deaf, she lived out her remaining 5 years with us. She was the sweetest dog. When I saw Little Miss Muffet , with her matted mess of a hair do, I just had to save her too! I just had to! Boy does this girl remind me of my Belle!
Little Miss Muffet has no problem going for a walk and playing in the yard she just runs and jumps, she is such a happy girl! If you are interested in Little Miss Muffet, contact TheDogLiberator@gmail.com to arrange to meet her.
