CHERRY
The two new house guests arrived at WFTRM Chicago. They were abandoned or breeder dumped to be blunt in a very rural area, filthy, matted and loaded with ticks. Both were intact and seem to be on the younger side. A kind gal who lives nearby took them in, posted about them before she was going to have to deliver them to a shelter. Their guardian angel Nanette contacted her, willing to foster and give them TLC and drove an hour to pick them up. They were both loaded with ticks, matted and filthy. Both sadly tested positive for Lyme and Ehrlichiosis – tick borne diseases. She bathed and treated them, took them to the vet for vaccinations, wormed and gave them love and care which they both wanted badly. She also groomed them before transport day! I am so very grateful for this incredible pre-care!

This little nugget is CHERRY. From the second she arrived I said OMG she is the tiniest and cutest Welsh girl I ever saw. She weighs 15 pounds and her personality is as darling as her looks. Cherry is about 2.5 to 3 years old and has had some litters. She walked right in and said I love it here, give me those toys, treats, and cuddle, kiss and adore me. She nestles in this new big bolster bed but really loves it to be on the human bed curling up tight and sleeping. Cherry is such a wonderful girl – very quiet, well mannered in the house, fascinated with the television and tik tok videos. She has the head tilt mastered to perfection and is so adorable. She is an all about me little girl - should have named her princess. She will want a home that devotes their love and life to her, take her everywhere and love a dog that is on you and touching you. Cherry loves the big back yard, zooming around and investigating. She and her boyfriend have been the best at coming when called and heading back inside. Their house training has been surprisingly great. Cherry was in heat when she arrived which drove Mahogany bonkers so they had separate quarters. She seems to like other dogs even flirting with Fabio at the gate. Cherry went to the animal hospital and had a full blood panel, canine influenza vaccination, spay surgery with absorbable sutures, micro chipped and she has had a Rabies, Distemper, Bordatella vaccination, wormed with Drontal Plus, and 4dx Heartworm test. She is on doxycycline for the Lyme and Ehrlichea. Cherry is doing exceptionally well, such a delight and a special one in a million little Welsh girl.







 


Meet MAHOGANY He is an incredibly handsome Welsh Terrier boy who is about 3.5 to 4 years old. He weighs 25 pounds, has gorgeous soulful eyes and is very sweet and gentle. He loves to be petted, kissed, talked to and thrives on human affection and attention. He loves the big back yard and runs the fastest circles around the entire perimeter with the biggest smile on his face. Mahogany is a lover and will hop right up on your lap no hesitation. He wants to bond with his owner, hang out with you, go in the car and walks and be your number one guy. He is friendly with all the boys at the gate with the signature tail buzz so fast. He had been obsessed with his girl, searching for her smells and scents even after her move across the house. Was substituting the dog bed for his humping partner. That is toning down now and once that testosterone gets out of his system will be a memory. Mahogany is also well-behaved in the house, respectful and loves to cuddle on the bed with you. Mahogany went to the animal hospital and had a full blood panel, canine influenza vaccination, neuter surgery with absorbable sutures, micro chipped and he has had a Rabies, Distemper, Bordatella vaccination, wormed with Drontal Plus, and 4dx Heartworm test. He is on doxycycline for the Lyme and Ehrlichea. Mahogany also had a full dental cleaning and a fractured tooth was removed. His bloodwork returned slightly anemic so it was sent out to IDEXX to be evaluated for anisocytosis. It has returned unremarkable and was more than likely due to his condition and inflammation from the tick borne diseases. Mahogany is such an incredible boy who checks every box and deserves a home that will dote on him, treat him like a prince and spend lots of time with him bonding and living life to the fullest.
