We rescued this little jerk last July. She had been dropped off at the Humane Society with a severely broken back leg that they couldn't save -- person dropping her off refused to give any information or identification beyond "I found her." Our vet's best guess is that she was being used as a breeder and either ended up dropped or stepped on. Adoption counselor told us that she was very submissive and hated going for walks. She's about 5 years old, about a month out from her amputation, and only 3.5lbs when we adopted her. Now she's 5lbs, loves going for as long of walks as we're willing to give her, and has absolutely no fear of anything. We've got 5 cats, and everyone gets along about as well as expected. Cats adjusted pretty quickly -- we think it's because she's so much smaller than any of them. She occasionally gets in their faces and receives a smack on the head, but we occasionally catch her snuggling with one or two of them. She's utterly indifferent to most people we meet -- she'll tolerate being petted by strangers, but would rather just continue on her walk. She wants to meet EVERY dog she sees, after which she ignores them. She's also become quite famous in our neighborhood -- people will yell "It's that 3-legged dog!" from their cars and porches.
