💜 𝗩𝗼𝗹𝘂𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗲𝗿 𝗡𝗼𝘁𝗲𝘀:

Sierra is a big lover! If she could lay in your lap and kiss you all day she would. She was easy to leash and walked like a dream. Outside she was very attentive to me and just wanted to be in my lap and be pet. She knows sit and takes treat gently. She?s also very playful and did great on her temp test with another dog. She is rescue only due to her medical notes.

When getting out for Rabies, dog got very excited. I tried to look at her teeth and
she was extremely wiggly. I gave Rabies and then went to place her in her
kennel. She froze and went very still then fell over lateral on the ground, and
began to kick her feet in a running motion like she was having a seizure. It lasted
a few seconds and then she came out of it, stood, and went in to the kennel with
me. Seemed normal after. Crusty ocular in OD
