Ivy’s personality:
Ivy is an absolute sweetheart, who loves attention and affection. And sleep. She gets along well with all other doggies, and is truly your shadow - she will follow you anywhere! Ivy has had a tough life and sometimes looks tired and over it all, but she is coming to life more and more each day. She is a total charmer, and everyone loves her.!!

Ivy’s ideal forever home:
Ivy will suit any home where she will receive love and attention. She is not overly active, but enjoys going for walks. So, a more sedate lifestyle would suit her perfectly.

Ivy’s story:
Ivy was used purely for breeding before coming into our care. When her original owner/breeder was finished with her, she was given away with the intention of being someone’s pet. Her breeding days were supposed to be over. But this selfish and heartless person continued to use Ivy for breeding.

After numerous caesareans and two vaginal prolapses, this poor little girl was desexed. Her last owner brought her to us with the ultimatum of us taking her into our care or her being euthanaised. We were told all sorts of untruths about this precious girl.

We are so, so, grateful that she has ended up in our care. Ivy is THE most delightful, adorable, amiable, easy going, little doggy and we all absolutely adore and treasure her!

Ivy’s medical history:
As mentioned above, Ivy endured multiple pregnancies and two vaginal prolapses. However, she does not appear to have any ongoing issues relating to this. When she arrived into our care she had chronic skin and ear infections, and a corneal ulcer. All of which had gone untreated. With treatment, the eye ulcer has resolved, as has her skin and ear infections.

Ivy is still being treated for skin allergies, which will most likely be an ongoing issue requiring treatment. The skin folds around her "tail" will also need to be monitored - cleaned and kept dry to prevent future infections. Otherwise, Ivy is perfect!

Ivy is desexed, vaccinated, microchipped, treated for fleas, ticks, heartworm and intestinal worms.

More about Ivy:
This little girl is as sweet as they come. She has lived a miserable life so far but is still gentle, loving and trusting. She has never known a true “home”.

Ivy deserves a home and family, where she will be pampered and loved and treated like the little princess that she is!
