Heidi was left in an overnight drop box in early June near Raleigh, NC. Her physical condition and lack of socialization are strong evidence that this sweet little Foxie was a prisoner in a puppy mill - forced to bear litter after litter.
Heidi is making good progress adapting life in her first ever home environment. Her leash manners are much improved and she’s engaging her foster terrier siblings in play. She’s also discovered that an empty Tupperware container is a GREAT toy.
Her surgery was just last week and her recovery has gone well. Like most surgical patients, she’s gotten extra special care for the first few days and nights. Heidi’s been alert and wanting to play – typical Foxie girl. Her foster mom, Linda, says she’s the “most resilient terrier I’ve ever seen.” The frosting on the cake is that we received the happy news that every one of the six mammary tumors was benign! What happy news!!!!
