Default New rescue Dalmatian, Ocean

I've had her for a week, she's a great dog, haven't had any issues and her training is coming along fantastic, she's even being super good around the cat.

She was being neglected in rural northeast Alabama, she weighed about 28lbs when my friend who fostered her for a week picked her up. She's at 33lbs now and her ideal weight should be around 37lbs, no more than 40lbs. She was kept outside 24/7, her ears are a little chewed up on the tips from the elements, and she's got a sore on her leg. She got her heartworm test yesterday, just waiting with fingers crossed that she's negative. I picked her up in Richmond, Virginia last Sunday, a transport run got her to there from Alabama. Her name was Maggie, but she didn't know it anyway.

She's a NUT! But she is fun and settles nicely when it's bed time or just time to relax in the house.
