We have received a follow up on SCOOBY and ZOE from their adoptive “Mom” Cheryl N 3/24/09
Cheryl says that when Scooby was picked up in Carthage he looked up at Driver Kelly A, and according to Kelly his eyes said “Oh, no. You’re not going to take me either, are you?” At that point, Kelly was determined to take him and moved everything around in her truck to make room. He wasn’t going to be left behind.
It took Suzanne, Debbie D, and Kelly to load Scooby into the truck as he stiffened when lifted. Kelly gave both doggie treats and turned on the radio. Both dogs kept looking trying to find the source of the music and had no clue as to what it was and why it was coming from the dash.
Now Scooby had lost a lot of hair because of depression. The vet said Scooby didn’t understand why people would take the little puppies and not him. Scooby and Zoe were found in a garbage dumpster at the age of 5 weeks. A lady named Nancy who worked nearby at Panola County Humane Society in Carthage found them.
Because of hair loss between his front legs and neck, he seemed to be shy. Kelly decided to put a bandana on him to cover the area of loss. After that he was strutting like he was worth a million dollars according to Cheryl. For about a week, he would not allow anyone near him if he thought they were going to remove the bandana.
Scooby now weights 90 pounds.
Zoe is more active than Scooby who depends upon his sister. Zoe now weighs about 70 pounds. Both are at proper weight now.
Cheryl sang the praises of Driver Kelly A. Thanks Kelly.
