Gorgeous Sugar is back on the list tonight. :( Please, do everything you can to make sure this isnt going to be her last night on this earth! A volunteer writes: I saw Sugar arriving at the care center, her beautiful light blue eyes enlarged with fear, the tail tucked between her legs, her face and body completely frozen. I went to talk to her shortly after she was housed in a kennel and left some treats at her door.She was softly growling, plastered at the back of her den. She looked so emotionally bruised having lost the family she knew since early puppyhood. For days, she would not exit her kennel. I kept talking to her and leaving treats that she decided to eat after I left. I made a few attempts to leash her but failed miserably. Never force things, but never loose hope for a breakthrough. Give a dog a chance to come out of its shell and feel better in your hands. Today was the day. Sugar had already walked once with a very caring and experienced staff and was now honoring me with her presence, accepting my leash without fuss. Sugar walked cautiously and wary looking. She insisted to stay at the gate overlooking the street, hoping maybe to go home. She neared quite a number of other dogs without concern. She sat for me and posed for pictures after having spent a while together. She then hopped on the bench next to me and accepted caresses, looking at me from time to time. I even got a furtive kiss, just one. Sugar and I had another walk together the same night. She was definitively more relaxed, her gait much lighter, her tail slightly up. Her eyes were more at peace. She came with her 2 feet on my lap and gave me..yes, another kiss. Sugar did live happily with a young child and other dogs. She is known to chase cats. She might have been sheltered from the outside world and is a bit wary of strangers. She would know a number of commands and was mainly fed table food which might explain why Sugar is quite well nourished. Her former owners sum Sugar up as a Good Girl. Sugar is a rare beauty, an example of femininity that one can not forget once she catches ones eye. She might not reveal all her qualities while with us and therefore Sugar needs a home soon, a new family and a savvy master who will appreciate her, love her to pieces and socialize her for the whole world to fall in love with her.
