My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:


Her “street” name was Bandita. The momma dog raising her babies in the recycle plant. Not only was she raising HER babies , but one of her babies was grown and raising a litter side by side with her. 3 whole generations of dogs and puppies being tended to by the kind people at the recycle plant. Given limited resources, they did an amazing job. 

Her new name is Fancy.  Something about that song… being from the rough roach infested neighborhood, and coming into luxury to raise her babies. It just strikes a chord with us. Fancy is absolutely a wonderful and beautiful dog. She had multiple litters of puppies and has worked hard to raise them all. You can tell by her protectiveness that she hasn’t always had it easy. She didn’t always have a quiet, safe, cool and clean place to raise her broods. But she does now and man is she quite the transformation.
 



Fancy walks wonderfully on a leash. She prefers to walk in the front yard for potty time so she can sit and listen to the noises of town. She is curious about her surroundings and very confident when on walks. She redirects easily and aims to please.  She is house broken now and loves hugs and kisses.  She will crawl into your lap if you’re sitting on the floor and cuddle you. If you’re standing or sitting on a chair she will gently put her front paws on your chest for hugs and soft nose boops. She is very affectionate.
 



Fancy is learning some commands, has mastered sit, down and off. I think with more training , Fancy could be a really well trained girl. Fancy is not yet tested with young children but adores the resident teen. She has not been tested with cats but I would imagine that a cat free home is probably safest as she was a street dog for her entire life so putting her with a resident cat might not be a good idea.



This girl has a heart of gold and eyes that see straight through you. She is a delight.  Fancy will be available for adoption in the coming weeks. She has to wean her puppies yet and then she will be ready for a life of adventure, cuddles and sweet nose boops with her perfect people. Whoever she chooses will be some seriously lucky humans!
