We went to Angel's of Assisi just 'looking' at the Boston Terrier puppies that had been rescued from a Puppy Mill in Carroll County Virginia. They had rescued 67 dogs that lived in cages made of chicken wire suspended from the ceiling and ranged from puppies to 4 years old. Once at Angel's, we were told all the puppies were gone but the mothers were there and ready to be adopted. My husband and I decided to just 'look' at them since we were already there. When I saw my Meena, I knew we couldn't leave her and there was no turning back. I knew she was special and not just because of her 1 blue eye and 1 brown. She was shy, looked very sad and her ears were flat. Once we got her home, her ears stood up the way they are supposed to and her shyness is pretty much gone. She has been with us since January 2009 and you would never know the conditions she spent her entire life in by looking at her. Even though she is 3-4 years old, everything was new to her including grass, kids, car rides and toys. She now knows how to play. I hope we have made as big of an impact on her as she has us! We love her so much!!
