Mary, one of our boarding dogs

Meet Mary. She has been boarding with us for almost a year. Her fosterer found her abandoned and tied up along Marymount Road, and thus her name Mary. Not knowing who her owner was, the kind lady who found her sent her to SPCA. Upon knowing that she would be put down, she immediately called us up, and wanted to remove her from SPCA to board with us.
Her first few days, or even weeks were quite stressful. She would throw up anything she ate, and would only hide in the corner of the kennel. I spent at least 45mins a day, sitting inside with her to calm her down and to let her get to know me better. Soon after, she got used to me, and we have become great pals. From a conservative little girl, she is now friendly, at least to me, and very protective over me. She is so much happier now. She loves her fosterers too! She would play with them whenever they are at our kennel, and let all of us carry her like a baby!
