Heather in FL needs a new forever home

Heather has lived with her elderly mother and father in Port St. Lucie, FL since she was a puppy. Her father has passed away and now Heather is just "too much dog for her mom. There is also a small dog that she gets along nicely with that is just the right size for her mom to keep as a companion. Her mom will miss her very much but wants her to have room to run and play -- she lives in a retirement community and walks her on a leash. Heather is 6 years old, she will be 7 this summer. She is purebred and AKC registered and very well-mannered. She travels well and loves her crate. Her mom leaves the crate door open and Heather goes in to sleep. At night she likes to sleep on the floor by her Mom's bed. She is spayed, up to date on shots and has what her mom calls a "summer hair cut." She is playful ( both indoors and out) and loves toys and loves to be hugged, petted,and kissed. She walks well on a leash. We have no idea how she is with cats. Her head is white as well as her front legs The rest of her fur is gray. Her tail is about 1" long -- it wiggles often when she is happy. Her eyes are descibed as hazel in color. She is currently 80# and does not eat people food. Heather has no trouble with her hips and gets up off the floor easily. Stairs are not a problem.

I have listed Heather on Petfinder as you see above with the description I got from her mom. I really need a picture of her is any one near Port St. Lucie? -- or better yet -- I need a forever home for Heather.

This is a courtesy listing for OESRNSE.

I really wish I had space in my home to take in this girl as she'd be a perfect fit. Lets hope Gretchen, Mopsy, Prissy and Heather find their forever homes. Keep us posted!

HI . I AM TRYING TO GET SOME INFO ON HEATHER.
I WAS HAVING TROUBLE GETTING LOGED ON BUT ALL IS WORKING NOW.
CAN ANYONE TELL ME ABOUT HER AND IS SHE STILL LOOKING FOR A HOME?

THANKS.................BANDAA :D
We are here in Baton Rouge and would be willing to give Heather a home. Currently we just have Lucky that we adopted almost a year ago. And of course we have had previous sheepies.

We could drive up on a weekend to Tallahassee if someone could help transport her that far.

Any ideas?
Any updates on Heather?I know Pt.St.Lucie WELL I lived there for 6yrs,even tho Im in Wi now it would be easy for us too come and visit w/ heather.So anyone know if Heather needs a furever home still??
We filled out an adoption form for Heather. Still waiting to hear from them. FL is close enough for us to drive to pick her up and she would be a great playmate for Lucky.

Keeping our fingers crossed.
Heather sounds wonderful, good luck! I hope you hear back quickly and get her soon.
I have just posted pictures of Heather on Petfinder.

We are looking for a home for Heather where someone is home most of the day (she has always had company as her parents were retired) and in an area where we can do a home check. We also do a "check" with your vet when we place a dog.

Heather has been adopted. She is doing well in her new home with her new sister, Scruffy and her new mom and dad and her new grandfather (he is 88 and home with her all the time)

Her former mom wrote me this nice note....

"I wanted to thank you so much for finding a place for Heather. I know she will be happy where she is. It was so great to see that she went with young people that will be able to take her on long walks. I could no longer do that. I felt that sometimes I was holding her back from being her. Thank you again for all the work you have done in placing her in just the right place. God Bless You."

Makes you all feel good doesn't it!
