My little jumper

this is Tiria. i was looking for a sausage dog i can addopt to befriend my Jack Russle, Zeegh, and luckily my mom heard about a small little sausage dog waiting to be given a home, sitting at the vet of our neighbouring town.

The cage she was kept in was small and cramped, and apparently no-one has claimed her for a month. She was puny, with her ribs and backbone sticking out. When my mom called me about her, i just decided, thats it, i'll take her. The vet was kind enough to do her spaying for free, just as long as she goes to a good home. My mom said she jumping in her cage from the time she saw my mom, until they took her home.

Today only 2 months later, i believe she is a different dog. No more bones sticking out, shiny coat, bubbly attitude. She jumps almost 1 metre high when she is excited or when she can smell a treat coming her way, and i think she has Jack Russle blood in her. She loves people, she loves her friend Zeegh and all the other animals at my parents house.

It makes me so happy to know i could give just one lost soul a home.
