Wishes

Wishes is very concerned because she has been in the shelter for months. Now she is with us as a Second Chance resident at the ranch, but she is worried that no one will want her. Wishes heard some folks say that she's ugly, but we think she is beautiful. She is full of energy and enthusiasm and ready for a walk, play session or whatever you are up for. And if that happens to include some pets and cuddling, that is just fine with her.

Wishes is very healthy about 3 years old. spayed and current on all vaccinations including being on heartworm preventative. She weights in at about 58 pounds, but that will drop as she stays with is. Wishes is getting lots of exercise and we have cut her food back a little.

She comes from the Amador Animal Shelter where she was surrendered by her owners. Her problem was her love for human contact, and especially kids. But she was kept away from that outside in a kennel all the time. So, she would breakout and run down to the local school to be with her favorite thing... the kids and lots of play. But someone saw her there and noticed that she has Staffordshire Terrier in her and thought that she was going to destroy everyone in sight and then burn down the school.

She actually is a cross between an Australian Shepherd and Am. Staff Terrier. And she is active, loves to play got for walks or just play in the yard.

She loves the obedience training she is getting with us. Already she knows how to heel, sit and down when asked. She is working on recalls and having a reliable stay command. This is not hard work for her, she loves it and could go all day.
