Annie Oakley is our puppy of the day today. She such a darling girl but a little shy, so we thought she would especially benefit from being out with us and the bigger dogs more today.
These darling Heeler-mix pups were brought to the shelter with their mother, Rosie, and four more siblings at the tender age of two weeks old. Luckily, Forgotten Friends rescued these six at 4 weeks old (and helped their mom and litter mates find safety as well!). This is the story of their journey to their Forever Homes!
