Those who ask what difference does it make saving just one have not witnessed the joy of the one who is saved!

Daschund - Spayed Female - 3 years old (Born 2007)
Height: 11-12" | Weight: 16lbs (aprox.)

Robin is a cute little girl who started out as someone's pet. Over time, she was left to fend for herself and this little dog managed to get tough out the extreme weather and found food through kind neighbors. Over the last couple years she has had a few litters of puppies, and many of them did not survive. Being a small, short coated dog, Robin is not designed for Manitoba winters! She was eventually turned over to rescue, and will now have a chance to be the pet she started out to be. Despite her rough start - Robin is an outstanding dog! She is completely housebroken and she does well in a crate. Robin does fine loose in the house, but she will occassionally chew if something is left out that interests her. Robin is great with children, she was previously fostered in a home with young children. She loved to sleep with the kids and is very affectionate with them. Robin does like to play with toys, especially ones she can chew. She prefers people to toys and really eats up love and affection from people. Robin is very sweet and friendly. She does pull on leash and gets very excited when it's time for a walk - whimpering, grunting and barking with excitement. Robin also enjoys the company of other dogs - but she could take them or leave them, and is really much more interested in people. She is great with the cats in her foster home, but she has made a few attempts to play with the felines in her foster home. Robin show no intent to harm them. She's really much more worried about being part of the group, part of the family and sharing in the activities of the household. (Indoor Home Only!)
