Meet Mercedes and Bo!



Mercedes

Mercedes

I am an 12 year old spayed female German Shepherd. I was adopted at 5 1/2 years old. People are amazed at my age. I am a sensitive dog and sometimes fearful. Although I’ve had some medical difficulties, I still love to play ball, carry toys, go for walks and car rides. My favorite treats are greenies. I also like rawhide flat chews, meaty bones, and stuffed kongs.

I sometimes need chiropractic adjustments because I have a bad hip and have suffered a ruptured disc in my neck. Because of my age and my overall health I did not go thru surgery but instead took many months of taking it lightly. That meant no walks or ball playing. All I did was go to the yard for bathroom breaks and carry my toys and ball hoping for some fun. Since the rupture I have been taking Dermaxx and am also on thyroid medicine.

I am a 8 year-old neutered male German Shepherd adopted at 2 years & 4 months. I am from very strong working lines and prior to being adopted, I spent most of my early life kenneled in a garage. Needless to say when I was adopted the world of smells, sight and sounds were overwhelming. Since then I have learned my manners as well as how to be a good pet. I have also learned how to play ball and tug games. I love chewing on meaty bones, rawhide, frozen meat, greenies, and stuffed kongs. I also love car rides and long walks. I am happiest when I have things to do.

A few years back I had intestinal surgery to repair a blockage which occurred after I swallowed something. The vets were great and saved my life. I have some allergies and am also on thyroid medicine.
