My story

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

NAME:
Thelma

STATS:
Female, Silky Terrier, 2 years, 10 lbs.

TEMPERAMENT:
Shy at first and warms up.
Playful, but not overly so.
Needs to be WITH ANOTHER dog
Bonded sister

SKILLS
Doing great with potty training.
Crate trained.
Good with dogs.
Likes walks, but not great for hiking.
Good with cats but does chase them if running

MORE ABOUT ME:
Likes belly rubs.
Couch cuddler.
Likes walks.
Likes playing with other dogs.
Suggest training (basic manners).
She is somewhat stubborn; but easy to correct behaviors

ONE LAST THING:
Thelma likes to be her own boss. She likes to cuddle with you on the couch, Sleep in bed with you and loves her walks. If you can not find her in the house, look in the backyard. She likes to Explore and protect her surroundings from squirrels and cats. She is often looking for her sister Louise to play with or snuggle with. She likes to hang out in the office when you work from home. Thelma and Louise like to do zoomies and play together but Thelma can be a little bossy with Louise.
Thelma loves her walks but is reactive to other dogs/people. From her behavior, we think she was left in the yard as you really need to make sure she has potty breaks and reward her for doing right. If you miss her cues, she will go inside.
Thelma and Louise were left behind when their owner moved away. A nice Rescue lady in Stockton took them in when they saw the owner never came back for them. Sounds like they lived most of their lives in the backyard. Now they are pampered little princesses.

More about this rescue

Our mission is to rescue, rehabilitate, and re-home abandoned, abused, stray and neglected animals, primarily from high-kill shelters. We collaborate with other rescue groups and animal shelters to improve the lives of animals at risk for euthanisia. We work to provide solutions which seek to end the animal over-population and educate people to be responsible pet owners and "fur-ever guardians."
