Meet Gorgeous! We named her to boost her self-esteem! When we first found her, she was extremely malnourished and missing hair due to poor nutrition. It was clear she had puppies at some point in her life. Our vet also found that she must have been hit by a vehicle at least twice, as she had a new injury to one leg and an old injury to the other. This poor gal had a rough start but BARK got her all fixed up! She had an FHO (Femoral Head Ostectomy) surgery on one of her legs, a procedure that removes the head and neck of the femur to restore pain-free mobility. She made a full recovery and rocked out during her two months of rehab, truly deserving of a bravery award.
Now that you know a little about her past, let's talk about her now! Gorgeous is a spayed, 2.5-year-old Shepherd mix. She is stunning, with healthy hair and a full figure at 70 pounds. Her two different colored eyes make her incredibly unique!
Gorgeous is fun-loving, great on a leash, and likes most other dogs unless they are bossy to her. She adores toys! She would be a perfect companion for a family that enjoys traveling or being couch potatoes, and she's happy with a daily stroll. She's easy to love but also enjoys her independence, which likely stems from her first two years of life spent on her own. Gorgeous does know how to climb a fence, so she needs to be adopted to a family with a fully wooden fence! She tends to escape her play yard when she gets bored and is ready to come inside.
