Hi, My name is Jewel!
I can't believe how my life just started a month ago!!  Actually, I'm about 10 years old, but I'd rather forget all that time before.  The day my previous owner (and I use the term loosely) turned me in to a vet because I was old and she was done with me, was the luckiest day of my life.  When the vet did my physical, she found I was full of puppies.  She didn't think I was up to whelping another litter and taking care of them, so mercifully they spayed me.  I had the beginnings of 12 puppies inside me!  It makes me tremble all over again to think what would have happened if . . . . .
 
Since I was used strictly for production purposes, I didn't have a lot of human contact.  I am shy and have a "safe place" I go when things get too scary for me, but I am learning to enjoy having my foster parents pet and love on me.  I've learned it's OK to take a treat from a person's hand and enjoy it!
 
I'm up to date on all my vaccines, heartworm negative and healthy now that I have good care and good food.  I'm crate-trained and house-trained too!  Not bad for a senior citizen!  If you talk to my foster mom about me, she can share some of the pictures that were taken before I was taken into rescue.  Foster mom says they break her heart.  I sure hope she heals OK.  I like it when she brushes me.
 
I would love to find a quiet home to live out my life as the pampered princess I have waited to be.  A doggie sister or brother would be great.  Cats aren't worth my time, but they're OK too.  Talk to you soon.
