A few years after Diva passed away, we wanted another toy fox terrier. We found one on the Petfinder.com website and we drove all the way to the Humane Society in Inverness, FL to pick her up. She was as cute as could be.
Where’s my dinner?
As I was signing the paperwork, the lady pointed to another small dog and said, “She is bonded to this sweet little girl, Anya, and they have become quite a pair.” She told me that Anya had been at the shelter for 10 months. Apparently, no one wanted her because she wasn’t pretty – she had unusual coloring and one odd-looking eye – the result of breeding two merles. Of course, we decided to take her as well. As I started to leave, the lady looked at the dogs and said, “Come on girls, it’s your lucky day!” And, as you can see below, it was. They went from a cage at the pound to lounging in the Florida sun.
Neither dog knew how to walk on a leash, so the process began to train them for their upcoming RV trips. Now, when they see a leash, they wag all over and want to be first in line.
The girls are very sweet, although little Mandy can be a bit spunky. She does not share her master well. Anya is an all-around well-balanced girl and she has assumed the role of mommy in the family. And she constantly flirts with Rico.
