She chased after a tennis ball with her one eye and cone and brought it back. Sometimes she would lose track of it but was a good sport and found it fun. She liked to keep her one eye on her handler and would come running over if she felt there was too much distance apart. She was friendly through the fence with people and would wag her nubby tail. She bonked into many things with her cone and one eye. A very sweet, affectionate girl pal to have around. On 2/26 staff noted: "In reference to the dog meets, "Soft eyes, ears to the side, mouth closed, nub mid level wagging. Loose and wiggly with both Cane & Laroo. Allowed both dogs come up to her first and did not push further interaction with Cane when he stayed near his handler." On 2/24 staff noted: "Came into exam room wiggly, with loose body. Very friendly girl who seeks out attention, leans body into you. Generally allowed all handling and examination aside from staying still to allow for full ocular exam of her painful right eye. Did not show any signs of aggression despite the pain, but turned away." On 2/22 finder noted: Good around strangers and children. She appears sick. Scared, seems to be good.
