Carmel now Tallulah-Rose (Tally), a Golden/Collie mix, was surrendered in late December 2020. She was 6 months old and not spayed. The owner had been informed by his apartment complex that she is too big – only dogs under 25 pounds can be in the apartment. Carmel came in with a diagnosis of tick fever and eye inflammation. Carmel was continued on doxycycline, forti flora and Credelio. Blood work done including HW/tick fever and VF and chip implanted. Dr W. wanted her on doxy for another month. She also has some deciduous teeth that could be taken care of at her spay. On 2-3-21, Carmel, now Tally was spayed and her deciduous teeth removed. General cleaning was also done. She has been adopted by an adoptive couple, who says:

Tally is fearless and very curious! She loves to play with balls, toys of all kinds, and other dogs. She has adapted to our lifestyle -- is with us wherever we go -- we get up, she gets up; we walk around the house, she walks right with us. She’s very people-oriented, and likes to say hello to the golfers on the course behind our house. She’s probably the smartest Golden we’ve ever had. She learned some good habits when she lived in an apartment with her original owner. For example, she stays under the table while we’re eating and doesn’t beg. She very quickly became a part of the family.
