Update 10/06/07: As happens occasionally, a dog returns to MAESSR’s care through no fault of its own. Such is the case for the Divine Miss M. She will enjoy a little time to settle from her move and will be looking for a new family to welcome her as their own soon!
Original: Molly came to MAESSR from a home for foster teens where she was confined to the kitchen and only taken out to relieve herself because of all the activity in the household.
The Divine Miss M, as her foster parents affectionately call her, has finally found the great outdoors! She even fancies herself quite the mole hunter, sniffing them out in the back yard. She lifts her voice in greeting, talking to joggers passing by.
Completely housebroken, Molly is trustworthy in the house. Her foster parents do not even need to crate her at night. If her foster family takes her to the park or the vet, she rides very well in the car. Inside, she does not counter surf or beg at the table, but she will get up on the furniture when no one is looking. She will get down on command without any complaints. She knows “sit” and her foster parents are working on “down” with her. They are also working on her leash manners. Molly loves giving kisses and receiving belly rubs. She follows her foster mom from room to room.
Being confined to the kitchen for three of her five years, Molly is a little possessive of her space when it comes to eating and the resident Springer is in the room. She is fine around people while eating, though. Her foster mom can drop food in her dish and pat her on the back with no problem.
Molly has so much love to give, that her foster mom feels she would be happiest if she were the only dog in the household so she could get her family’s undivided attention. Do you have the love in your heart to share it with this Divine Springer girl?
