Smokey Topaz A169990 23 lb. spayed female, approx 2 years old
-She’s so skinny that she sometimes wobbles and looses her balance. Poor thing has not been taken care of. I’m assuming it’s a lack of muscle and strength. -She’s obviously hungry and food motivated. She takes snacks nicely. She won’t sit but it’s probably uncomfortable as her bones are rubbing. -She enjoys being close for pets and gives an occasional kiss -Enjoys playing with toys too! -Good on a leash but again, she’s tiny so who knows when she’s a healthy weight -Good girl! -Pics are not great because she kept inching closer to get the treats. She’s so sweet! -Seems non reactive to dogs nearby and may do well living with a fur sibling after slow and proper intros
Unknown behavior with dogs/cats/kids
