Daisy Mae is a very sweet, three-legged, Sheltie girl around 7 to 8 years of age. She gets along very well with everyone including other dogs and cats. She enjoys children although we have concerns over the gentleness of small children especially when we're placing an older Sheltie.
Daisy Mae loves attention, loves her people, and will be a wonderful companion to someone interested in being her life companion too. Her three legs are not limiting. She is able to go up and down stairs without a problem. However, this may change as she gets into her senior years.
Daisy Mae is a tri-color Sheltie meaning that she's primarily black in color with some tan and white coloring. She's a small sized Sheltie weighing in at about 20lbs. Daisy Mae has a bubbly personality and is really a joy to have around the house.
Daisy Mae belonged to a family who let her run around the neighborhood and it seemed as though they didn't really take care of her or any of the many other dogs they've had over several years. When Daisy Mae was hit by a car and injured, neighbors picked her up and took her to the vet for care. This is how she ended up with a brand new family who cherished her and cared for her as she never had been cared for before. Unfortunately, this loving family has hit some difficult times and were unable to keep their home or their dogs. Luckily they found Sheltie Rescue.
When sweet, three-legged Daisy Mae arrived at Sheltie Rescue we took her off for a vet visit very quickly to assess her health. She was found to have a raging bladder infection which we wanted to clear up before doing a spay. At the beginning of June she was was spayed and had her teeth cleaned at the same time. A full blood panel shows no indication of any disease or hidden medical condition.

Special Needs: Although Daisy Mae handles stairs well at this time it's very possible that later in life stairs will pose a serious challenge/problem for her.
