Nena came from the streets of Puerto Rico where she was found after being hit by a car and had gotten a fractured hip and a scar on her forehead. She came to Massachusetts 2 days ago and was placed in an Animal Shelter. After weeks of just looking for a dog, nothing had appealed to me like she did. Tonight I came home from work and seen her posting online and was reading about her... her face made me melt. As soon as the woman brought her in the room my eyes filled up with tears. Something told me inside to keep her and love her. She is such a sweetie. Great temperament, warm, friendly and so far haven't heard her bark. The people told me at the shelter that she rarely does bark, she is very independent and loves chicken... And guess what? She had a purple collar on her...who loves purple more than me? It was a sign. She is so cute. We came home about 10 p.m. and since then she has just been laying next to Jalina watching Disney Channel.. Hey! now it's Nena's turn to watch High School Musical over and over again, lol lol lol... I got alot info and great feedback on Nena from the woman that found her in P.R. and kept her until she was sent here. I have all her records and pictures and even her X-Rays from the accident. I feel so great inside that we adopted a dog in need of some TLC and lots of love. Nena which is pronounced (Nay-Na) is our Puerto Rican princess who will be given much love and care and be so happy here. More posts to come....

katie: she is a very calm dog. she hasn't been eating much and just lays in a corner. Maybe she is sad. You know what's funny? I noticed that she like to lick toes? IS that normal? lol lol. I like having the company..she is very sweet. The shedding I don't like. What can I do to help that? Did you say you were a vet tech? Jenny
I do know toe licks are very normal...ICK......the wire dog brush helps the coat....but she will shed...I learnt a ton about dogs from my bro in law...S
