Rory - GSD/BC Mix - Female - 7 Months - www.twyla.org If you'd like to know more about this dog please visit our website at www.Twyla.org Meet the Gilmore Girls! "We were found in an abandoned trailer in very unsafe conditions. Once rescued by our foster family, we started opening our eyes to see this beautiful world around May 12th, and boy are we HAPPY TO BE HERE! Our Mom - who has already found her permanent place once we find ours - is a gorgeous Shepherd mix and very patient with us and our apparently very sharp teeth. As my name suggests, I’m Yale-worthy smart. ? Despite being a runt (closely tied with Sookie), I was the first to open my eyes and the first to escape the baby pen. My foster parents put in a lot of work to keep me safe! Sookie and I probably have a different dad than our litter mates, but Mama won’t spill. She said not until we’re adults, but something tells me she doesn’t even know who our dad is. I love to spill my food as soon as it’s served. Don’t worry— I still eat it so you don’t have to clean it up! I’m a huge lover. When I was a tiny baby I would get cold after bath time so my foster mom would swaddle me in a bath towel and rock me until I stopped shivering. When I was fresh into the world my foster mom actually had to plug me in to eat first because my bigger siblings would knock me off Mama’s nipples! Don’t be fooled by my backstory— my legs are growing an inch a day so I will probably end up being pretty big and strong!" Rory is looking for a home with other dogs to help mentor her and play with her. Older kids may be OK in a home with a large-breed experienced handler as these pups grow by leaps and bounds and don't know their size and strength yet. Puppies tend to thrive in homes where there is another large dog young enough to play, they have a private Yard, where they are not left alone or in a crate all day (making housetraining virtually impossible). Patience, time and training is required when raising a puppy - their are cute for a reason (otherwise no one would put up with them) ***Please note: All dogs are fostered in private homes of volunteers, so to meet a dog please fill out an Adoption Application on our website (http://www.twyla.org/adopt/our-adoption-process) so we may setup a private meetup with the dog or coordinate for an Introduction at the next general Adoption Meet and Greet (as listed on our website: (http://www.twyla.org/upcoming-events), as not all dogs attend all Meet and Greets*** ***Please note: All dogs are fostered in private homes of volunteers, so to meet a dog please fill out an Adoption Application on our website (http://www.twyla.org/adopt/our-adoption-process) so we may setup a private meetup with the dog or coordinate for an Introduction at the next general Adoption Meet and Greet (as listed on our website: (http://www.twyla.org/upcoming-events), as not all dogs attend all Meet and Greets***
