SIENNA

My name is Sienna and I am a Forever Foster.  I am a beautiful 9-10 year old champagne colored Lhasa Apso senior lady.  I weigh about 19 pounds or so. 

I don’t see very well, nor do I hear very well, but I do follow my foster mom around the house and wherever she is, you can find me right by her side.  Because I don’t see or hear very well, I can startle easily when someone tries to pet me or pick me up.  If I know you are there, it’s fine though!  I love to be with people, I just need to be awake to love you!!!  My day consists mostly of sleeping and eating.  I think the best part of the day is when I am fed and I am definitely awake for that!  I really do LOVE to eat!!

I was left alone a lot for about 2 years when my mom was working 3 jobs.  She couldn’t take care of me anymore so that’s why I now live with my Lone Star foster family.  Because I was neglected and alone, I now have to relearn many things. I am a bit confused about many things.  I am relearning housebreaking and my foster mom knows that when I get up from my nap I need to go outside right away.  I don’t bark at all, so my foster mom needs to see me at the back door to know that I need to go out.  Hopefully this will get better with time.  I also have to learn the layout of the house and yard, particularly where the pool is.  My foster mom takes me outside on a leash so I don’t accidentally fall into the pool.  Since my eyesight isn’t very good, this might happen!

I hope that someone in addition to my foster family can love me and be patient with me as I learn to be a good dog again.  It is going to be a long process, which is why I am in the Forever Foster program. 

If you would like to learn more about me please contact my foster mom at wilma.f.winter@us.army.mil.  You might even be interested in helping out with some of the expenses of my care.  I do need drops daily for my eyes and medicines can be expensive.  Please check out the Forever Foster Home Page to see about donating to our Forever Foster program.  We would appreciate any help you are able to give.

I am altered, up-to-date on all my shots and am heartworm negative.
