ABBY
Your dog’s name Abigail Loraine Mangano and other names she will respond to Abby; Abby-Dabbers, Puk’n & Monkey
Your dog’s birthday We decided July 15 2013 but she didn’t come to live with us until Nov 12 2013.
How did you obtain your dog? From a good friend & colleague active w/ rescue efforts involving the Odessa Animal Shelter. When my husband & I saw her little face we fell in love with her and both agreed we were ready for a new member to join our family. So my friend Becky had her Mother go pick her up from the shelter. Becky’s plan was….for her to go home to Odessa on Thanksgiving for the holiday and get her. Unfortunately complications with having a new puppy in your home were too much, so Becky took off work the next day and met her Mother at the half way point, a two hour drive to Abilene, TX. The main reason Abby is with us today is because of my caring friend and all her efforts.
How old was your dog when you got him/her? Paperwork stated 3 months but the Vet stated based on when her “canine teeth” came in she would have been 4 months old.
How would you best describe him/her in 5 words? Energetic, Demanding, Playful, Sweet and Loving
Your dog’s favorite food ; Anything you feed her
Cutest thing your dog does : For Mommy- she talks to me in the morning when she needs to go out and likes to play soccer w/ a tennis ball….she’s a great goalie; For Daddy- she cuddles up with daddy in bed, yes she sleeps in the bed. Also, she will stand on her back legs and use her front paws to pull your shoulders in and give you a hug.
Smartest thing your dog does : For Mommy- She will pick up her “Konkie” and throw it toward me to fill w/ treats. I then tell her to pick it up and bring to the kitchen and she will pick up and following to the kitchen and give it to me to fill w/ treats. For Daddy- she argues with mommy. She will, from time to time, gather up all of her toys around the house and put them in her toy box.
Anything else you would like to share about your dog: Abby has become a good dog. She has had quite a journey to be with us but our lives are forever changed because of her.
