4. a short story about its past (if known), like what condition you pet was in when you found it? : Lolly was at the shelter I volunteer at. She was turned in with her mother (a Poodle/Dachshund mix) when her owners got a divorce. The husband shot one of the other dogs she lived with and I'm not sure what happened to the others. She had to endure 5 years of abuse from the man. The shelter tried to adopt Lolly and her mother out together because they were so bonded, but everyone wanted her mother and no one wanted her. They decided to adopt the mother out without Lolly. After her mom left, her personality changed. She kept her head down and growled at everyone that passed by. No one from the public looked at her, no volunteers walked her because she would not get up, and no one cared about her. I just had a gut feeling I had to help her. I requested to foster her with plans of finding her a home. Well, it took about a day before she was stuck at my heels and giving me all sorts of signs she wanted my home to be her forever one. It didn't take much convincing - she was here to stay!!
