March Puppy of the Month-Miss Mimosa

 Mimosa came to us after a tough beginning.  We don't like to dwell on the details, but her original owner did not have the wherewithal to keep her safe or provide for her needs.  She was brought to us as an 8 week old, with a bad infection, underweight, and not having known much human kindness.

Our veterinary team worked hard to get her health back on track, and her foster family worked hard to make up for the lack of love in her first months.

If that face doesn't reduce you to a puddle on the floor, you must be made of stone.

Her foster sister Lady Champagne took the job of teaching her how to be a house dog very seriously.  Here we observe a tutoring session on "Making Pathetic Puppy Eyes to Get Everything You Want."

You can see that she was a quick study.

Learning to appreciate the luxuries of a real home did not take long either.

Resident cat Kami, queen of RBF, took on the task of teaching her respect for her superiors, (superior species, that is, in other words, cats.)
