Sponsored by: Sara Dobyns 4/30/07: Fay, 11 other dogs plus cats, goats and a horse, were rescued after their owner died. All the animals were kept in small crates or on short tie-outs without much human interaction.  Fay is a little thin and a little shy with men. Sharp or booming sounds make her nervous; she doesn't care for the un-muffled motorcycle or the engine brake on an 18-wheeler. She has been lonely all her life and welcomes attention. She is so happy when someone comes to visit her -- and anyone who comes to visit is there to see her, she thinks. Daily walks are enjoyable for her and as each day passes she is more willing to play with the resident dog.She has a silky coat that seems to sparkle in the sunlight. She also has freckles. She is up-to-date with her shots and is the picture of health. Looking at Fay's teeth the vet says that she is not more than two years of age. She will be going back to be spayed this Friday.It's obvious that she's never been allowed to play in the water, something that she is learning to really enjoy. She probably hasn't ever had a toy to play with, either. She's begun to carry one or two around upon occasion. She has mastered stairs, something that was obviously an entirely new experience for her. She sleeps in a crate at night and often goes to her crate during the day for a nap.Companionship, some obedience training and liberal doses of love and this will be one very special and rewarding dog.
