Foxxy Brown

WE rescued her in October, 2009 from a person that found her running around stray in a parking lot. She couldn't find the owner, and she couldn't keep her, so she gave her to a neighbor that wanted her. Unfortunately that neighbor's son had asthma and allergies, and so she got taken back. The person then gave her to her mom, but her mom did not want her, and was keeping her chained outside, where she had puppies in July. Two of them died. I was asked by my mother in law who worked with this lady if I felt that my husband and I could accept a dog. I told her that we could take the adult dog, but not the puppy. We live on the third floor of an apartment building and we felt that between our location and our budget, we could afford the adult, but not the puppy. So Foxxy came to us. We never thought of having a toy sized dog before deciding to accept her, but we dote on her and love on her every day. She is just so cute and fuzzy and full of personality. She makes us laugh with her antics.
