Every "Doogie" Has His Day!

The shelter named him 'Doogie" . . . not sure why. He came in as a stray in pretty rough shape. The shelter was not sure WHAT could be done with a senior chihuahua with no teeth . . . .

Bbut then, a miracle happened! He was adotped! And the adopter just sent in an update:

"You may remember him as the 10y/o Chi with no teeth … and you called him ‘Doogie.’ It’s been 2 weeks since I brought him home and he’s doing great.  His separation anxiety is getting less and less every day and he is learning commands very quickly (remembering?)!  For fun, we’ve been riding my bike over to Daily Juice to visit with people and learn to socialize and trust. My bike’s basket is complete with a harness and a sunshade and he loves it! In fact, whenever I get my bike, he runs up excited to go for a ride!   



He is a serious cuddle bug and his wonderful personality is making itself known more each day.



We’re going to the groomer and the vet this week and are looking forward to many more adventures together. Thank you so much for this little guy!!

Love,
Jessica (and now Rufus)
