Meet Molly!!!!!
This beautiful and very sweet girl is from North Dakota. You would never know she is 11 1/2. She moves like a much younger dog. She is playful, prances gracefully, and loves her walks. Molly was an outdoor dog her entire life, but we think all the fresh air on her farm did her good. She loves being inside, came right in, and after about five days of being here, she has had only one accident. It was after she came home from the groomer and she may have been a little upset by that. She was very well cared for her entire life and had a warm place to sleep when it rained or when the weather turned cold. She came to us with her favorite ball and loves to play fetch!
Molly saw the vet today, and they found she had a very mild ear infection that she is being treated for. She also has a bad tooth that will be taken care of in November. She has mild arthritis in her right hip. She is up to date on all her shots. She was spayed.
She is friendly to dogs, male and female of all sizes, but she is afraid of cats. She does a little zig zag while on the leash as that is new to her, but as the days pass, she gets much better. She only pulls if she sees a squirrel. She listens to commands, and stays and sits nicely. She lays at our feet and sleeps next to our bed. She hasn't yet tried the orthopedic bed we got for her. Not sure she realizes how comfy it would be.
Molly does not like to ride in the car as her only prior experience with cars was to visit the vet. We are working with her on this as she shakes like a leaf. She needs help up into the car, but jumps out easily. We also learned last night that she is afraid of the fire pit. We had a nice small fire last night on the patio and she ran inside. We won't build any more fires while she is here. She was also a little afraid of the leaf blower and vacuum cleaner. We don't know yet if she has storm anxiety.
Molly would do well at a home with a nice-sized yard with a fence as she is used to roaming the farm. She loves to sniff and sniff. Another favorite thing for her is to watch airplanes.
Molly has the Golden nudge down as she is not letting me type up her web page. :) She doesn't want you to stop petting her.
She will make an appearance at Chuck and Don's when the next event is scheduled!
We will keep you updated as soon as we know when her tooth will be taken care of next month.
Please consider opening your home to this loving and playful senior girl so she can live her twilight years surrounded by love. Molly is a wonderful dog.
