Abby

[Sheltie Fan]

Congrats Abby on being named dog of the day! I have a sheltie named Abby too and she is the joy of my life also. Glad you overcame your rough start and have a loving family now.

Beautiful beautiful Abbie! Your story is truly a rags to riches one and we couldn't be happier. You can rest assured that the people on this board would never consider giving a puppy mill one dime of support. As much as we hurt for those dogs caught in that horrid life of producing for those greedy people, we recognize that purchasing a puppy mill puppy only perpetuates their anguish.

Abbie, my co-worker has two sheltie puppies and I have fallen madly for your breed. You are now leading a wonderful life, and that brings a smile to all of our faces. Sleeping on the bed, tummy rubs and lots of love are all things that every dog should enjoy. We're so glad that you are enjoying that now.

Abby, You are certainly one beautiful Shetland Sheepdog, I also need to mention that I find you completely "irresistible!!!!"

I was so shocked and heart broken when I read about your early social experiences, yet, your family taught you how to "trust" and "break out of "that hard-core Puppy Mill shell, to become ~the sweetheart that you were meant to be .

Have a Wonderful Dog of the Day, Abby!!!! Your story is truely HAPPY!!

Beautiful Abby girl! What a heartwarming and life affirming "rags to riches" story your Mom shares with us. Your huge heart and unwavering spirit, your capacity to overcome such horrific beginnings, to learn to love and trust again, is truly inspirational I never cease to be amazed by a canine's ability to love unconditionally! And thanks to your Mom for reminding us all of the heartbreaking legacy that is the "puppy mill;" education is the key,for sure! Thank goodness you escaped their evil clutches Abby and found your way to such a loving home, to people who will cherish you forever and always! I have faith that one day those houses of horror will be but a distant memory but until that happy day, we can only hope and pray that there are many more "happy ending" tales such as yours! Congratulations to you precious, beautiful Abby, our EXTRA special and MOST deserving Sunday Dog of the Day! Enjoy your day in the spotlight sweet baby girl and each and every day of your wonderful life! Hugs and kisses to you, dear Abby!
