A volunteer writes: What a wise and wonderful face! They say the eyes are windows to the soul and Dr Pebbles’ striking amber gaze shines bright with love for us all. Who knows what she’s seen in her 8 years of life…did the joys outweigh the sorrows? Pebbles is timid and hand-shy at first so perhaps people haven’t always been her friends but like a beautiful flower reaching for the sun, she blossoms under the warmth of kind words and the touch of a gentle hand. As soon as I sit down I’m showered with soft little face kisses and it’s not long before she’s enjoying a full body petting, complete with head caresses and butt scratches. I never have to ask for Pebbles’ affection, she happily gives it away to anyone who’ll take the time to offer her a morsel of kindness, and behind her shy facade lies a big heart brimming over with sweet, eager love. Pebbles sometimes shies from being re-leashed but once I’m on one side of the gate and she on the other, we have no issues at all and the rope is easily accepted as part of our walking routine. Strolling nicely down the street, she takes care of her business quickly and seems to like other dogs too, though as with people she prefers a calm, measured approach in her four-legged friends. Is it possible to fall in love at first sight? After meeting this amazing girl I’m ready to believe. Visit our Manhattan Care Center and ask for Pebbles – the Doctor of Love will see you now!
