RESCUE DOGS
My first dog was a Lhasa Apso/Poodle-mutt named Dinky. My childhood had several generation of his line until my final childhood best friend, Tiny.
Pogi was the first dog I adopted on my own, and was a savior and symbol of my new independence and healing from Dystonia. Pogi passed away in 2016 from kidney failure.
Queen's Best Stumpy Dog Rescue provided me with purpose to continue care for Pogi's breed: Corgis.

Corgis have enjoyed a surge of popularity due to their cute looks and energetic nature. Many new dog owners fail to research on the specific needs this breed requires. These surprises and a prevalence on unsafe breeding has created a surge in surrender of corgis at shelters.

Bilbo
“Go back?” he thought. “No good at all! Go sideways? Impossible! Go forward? Only thing to do! On we go!”
Bilbo Baggins, The Hobbit, Riddles in the Dark
Bilbo’s family woke up one morning and found him paralyzed in his hind legs. They took him for emergency surgery due to Invertebral disk disease (IVDD) a condition common with low rider dogs. They brought him to physical therapy and recognized that he needed more care than they could provide, with sad hearts they surrendered him to QBSDR.
Bilbo works on water therapy and balance board and has regained muscle and movement in his hind legs. He has control of his bowels and runs very fast in and out of his Wheelchair. He is a very happy dog that loves people and carrots. He continues to work on his core and lives his best life with QBSDR.
Rita
This sweet girl was well trained and cared for by her family. She is obedient and cuddly. She patiently follows instruction. Growing up, she started to exhibit competitive alpha behaviors with her sister. They began to fight and, in an environment with a small child, they began to have dangerous violent altercations. She was surrendered to QBSDR and requires behavioral monitoring and an environment as a solo-dog. She is fine in open environments, walks, and packs, but needs to be separated from other dogs in close quarters.
