Talk about turning a page! Hi! I’m Asa. I am four years old and this is my comeback! My person asked Homeward Bound to help me find a new home when she could no longer care for me. It was the start of a fresh chapter. I arrived looking like a geriatric old lady, very overweight and barely able to walk having spent most of my time in an apartment and crate. The Dog Doc took one look at me and knew immediately what to test for. It’s called Hypothyroidism, and the cure is a tiny, inexpensive, daily pill. It has helped me shed the weight, regain my energy, and grow my coat back. They threw in a spa treatment, and now I run and play like the young, spunky, and joyful girl I am! Don’t let my pretty looks fool you…I’m a strong girl and I need sturdy people! I am house and crate-trained, but I have not had much exposure to the world or other dogs. It’s all so new – and a little scary. That’s where sturdy people who are committed to training and opening my world come in. I would be best as the only dog in the home for now, but the good news is that I may be OK with a cat. Sturdy kids are on my list too. It’s been great to get my old self back again, but it’s time for me to bust out and start living my fullest life! Let’s go!
