Shine

Shine is a 2 year old, SPECIAL NEEDS husky mix. She is up-to-date on all her vaccinations, spayed and heartworm negative. Shine was born with intramural ectopic ureters, abnormalities in the tubular tissues that connect the kidneys to the bladder. The birth defect caused urinary incontinence, as her urine bypassed her bladder. Shine had laser surgery as a young puppy to open the ureters back to her bladder. The surgery corrected the majority of her urinary incontinence; however, she continues to have some urine leakage. Shine is crate trained and enjoys toys, bones, dipping her feet in the swimming pool and playing with other friendly dogs. She is on the small side for a husky, but that keeps her jumping a 6 foot fence (as huskies are known to do!). She also sheds - a furminator and/or doggie brush, and vacuum cleaner are necessities! As a side note, Shine chases and barks at her fur-bunnies - - always good for a laugh. Shine needs a family who is willing to take on this challenge and love her "as-is."
