DESCRIPTION
Meet Winnie, 9 years old
Winnie had surgery to remove bladder stones, so she will need to be on a prescription diet to help reduce the return of new bladder stones. Everyone who meets Winnie falls in love with her. Even the foster parents' neighbors are expressing how much they would love for Winnie to visit their house for pet therapy because she puts everyone in such a good mood. She loves to play with other dogs but is very gentle.
She has a wonderful, sweet nature. Winnie is going back in for a dental procedure in a few weeks, but we are willing to enter into a foster-to-adopt contract while you wait for it to be completed. Winnie loves everything! She will bring sunshine to anyone’s life!
