We adopted Gwen from a Foster Home which rescued her from a Breeder. Apparently, she was to be put down due to a pre-existing heart condition. Luckily, she was saved by a remarkable couple and a kind Vet performed the operation necessary to correct her heart - and he did it for free! Luckily, kindness sometimes outweighs cruelty...
Gwen is doing wonderfully here in NYC. It took a little getting use to the loud noises and busy sidewalks, but Gwen is now a city dog!
