Shyla

Shyla is a super-sweet Dobergirl who came to rescue from a NY shelter.  She was surrendered to animal control by her original owner who could no longer provide proper care for her and another Dobergirl. 

Shyla's friend was adopted from the shelter and then Shyla came to rescue.

Shyla is very well mannered and completely house trained.  She does not need to be crated and is friendly with every person she meets.  She does well with the other dogs, but is the queen of the pack for sure.  She has also lived with cats and birds. 

Shyla is a special needs dog because she had a seizure and will need to take medication daily.

Shyla was adopted by one of the nicest people ever - Sue Yates a DDRI board member!

Sue is an obedience trainer who lives in Rochester, NY, and is also a very important part of DDRI.  Sue's daughter Shannon is our sweet Zoey's mommy!  And, now Sue has her very owner Dober-girl.

Sue is very excited and looking forward to many years with Shyla.

Shyla was in foster care for a long time and became part of the pack at her foster home.  She was loved as much as the resident fur-kids and will be missed  - but, we are happy we will get to see Shyla from time to time and of course get updates all the time.

While in foster care, Shyla became very close with Min Min.  They were inseparable and the absolute best of friends.  Min Min will definitely miss Shyla!

Thank you Sue - it is so kind of you to open up your home to this very special Dober-girl. 

She is simply one of a kind.

3-31-08 -  Sadly our sweet Shyla passed away today and we are beyond heartbroken.  We believe Shyla suffered from DCM and died of sudden death.

We will always and forever treasure the time we had with Shyla.  She was so special to so many people and we are better for having had her in our lives.

We'll see you at the bridge sweet Shyla... we love you.
