Elegant Adelaide- TX- ADOPTION pending!!

How can you not love this face!

Adelaide, Adelaide... you couldn't be more beautiful!

Does this girl look familiar to you?  Sure thing.... this is the same beautiful girl that we had in New York, then Virginia, then Maryland, and now Texas!!  Addi is a traveler and this speaks VERY highly of her temperament.  Addi is such a fabulous girl and she will make a family so happy.  Why hasn't Addi been adopted?  WE JUST DON'T KNOW!!  Well, actually, her TX foster mom wanted any excuse to get her into Texas.  Mission accomplished!  Now that Addi is here, her TX foster mom can really get to know her.  Here is what her foster mom says about her....

Yes, I have been swimming in that pool ;-)

//Addi is NOT 7 years old.  No way, no how!  She is super active- runs, jumps, plays, SWIMS.... the list goes on and on and on.  My guess would be that Addi is about 4-5years old.  It is very obvious that Addi has lived a rough life on the streets or in a horrible home situation.  She is covered in scars and her teeth have been FILED down to nothing.  She is missing several teeth, but that doesn't stop this lovely girl from smiling!  She smiles and smiles and smiles.  She has already met two of my Corso girls.  She was eager to meet them, but once the butt sniffing was over, she put all her focus back on me.  She is a big girl, weighing over 110lbs.  She is a hearty eater, but when a human gets in her line of vision, she will walk away from the food to come visit.

I want YOU to adopt me!

This is the coolest dog toy ever!

Addi loves everyone.  She has met many humans- males, females, young, old- and she greets them all the same.... ears up, tail wags, open mouth, and kisses, kisses, kisses.  She walks with a pep in her step and I have yet to see anything that gets her upset.  She is an energetic girl, so daily walks are very important for her.  Addi does have issues with her vision.  She does not have depth perception, but has developed good compensatory strategies.  She has an eye appointment coming up, so we will know more after the appointment.  If my suspicion is confirmed, Addi will have entropian surgery before being adopted out.  Did I say that Addi is wonderful?  And OH, she LOVES, LOVES, LOVES her 11month old human sister!  When she sees her baby human sister, the butt goes 100mph, she can't stop smiling, and she can't get close enough to her sister!  Of course this makes baby smile, coo, and sign "dog", which makes Addi all the more happy.  I think Addi would do beautifully in a home with kids!

Enjoy the pictures.  I decided to take some pictures of her with her "tough girl" collar on.  You have already seen her froo-froo girly side from the previous pictures of her in a boa and tutu.  Addi and I decided that we could show you that she can have a tougher look too.  heehee//

I can look serious too.

UPDATE ON ADDI:  Addi has was adopted last summer by her foster mom.  However, her foster mom came to the realization that if she keeps Addi as her own, she won't be able to foster for CCR anymore.  That made her very sad and though she adores Addi, she felt it was best to let Addi go to a great home so that she can help more Corsos.  So, Addi is back up for adoption.  She has been to the eye specialist multiple times and she does NOT have entropian.  She simply has never been cared for properly.  She gets daily eye cleans (wish a damp cloth), a few eye drops in her eyes (very, very cheap).  That's it.  It's quick, easy, and cheap ;-)  We are so happy about that. 


Addi's adoption donation is $250.
