She lies down rolls over, stays, then gets a reward, she learns so quickly. She trained herself to be my hearing ear dog!!
Arrival Story:
In Antigua, Guatemala one woman rescued dogs and cats, and I volunteered a little. I had always wanted a dog of my own and promised her I would adopt one, when I had a stable place to stay. About a week before I was leaving for two months ,a newly admitted, bedraggled, sick, hairless , wounded , 20 lbs of skin and bone put her mangy head in my lap. I had wanted a smaller, smooth-haired dog, but spent the two months thinking of this creature who had grabbed my heart.
Bio:
I rented an apartment and we both moved in. Iona hated my tin-lizzie car with a passion! So I had to buy a small SUV which she tolerates! As her health improved (now 45 lbs) she became known and loved around town. But the apartment was not really sauitable for her, so I had to buy a house. It is spacious, and wonderful and is called, of course, Casa IONA!
Forums Motto:
She's my Iona. Iona sheepdog.
