I'm so HAPPY that she's comfortable and feels safe enough that she can finally sleep, knowing she can trust that her caretakers will never hurt her. Oh God, how could anyone have ever mistreated her... It just breaks my heart.

Oh the poor girl... she really was dealt a shitty hand. I'm so thankful she found the right people.

I do hope that her vision impairment is due to some type of congenital defect and not some other unimaginable horror she may have been put through.

You know... I remember an ad on Kijiji Vancouver from last fall (around the end of September), for a 14 week old Dobergirl. It read something like, "Great start with this little girl... she's very smart and learning fast... " and so on, I can't remember the whole thing, but the ad gave me a strange vibe at the time, strange enough that I still remember this particular ad. It was up for quite some time and posted more than once, as if no one was scoopin' her up. Sasha at 11 months now would be about the same age as that solo little girl pup for sale last fall... it may very well be her... At the time, I was looking for a Dobe in all the wrong places (i.e. Kijiji), but the only reason I didn't inquire about that puppy is because I was looking for a boy...

Wherever Sasha came from though, I'm glad she's NOT THERE NOW.
