It was rescued from a farm but, just like yours it used to hide under tables and bare its teeth. We came to the conclusion it had been beaten to try to make it work. Guess it just wasn't cut out for a life in the fields..........great little dog though. And your little Ben sounds just like him.

Sound to me like Missy may have been mistreated or at least teased by children.

Our dog Missy we rescued from the field across the road. She warmed up to my husband right off quick, but like you were saying about Ben, she took a long time to come around to me and my 2 granddaughters, the granddaughters being the last she warmed up to. We are not sure why or how she ended up in the field or how she had been abused but we are sure she was.CAREALOThttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15549887210844166034noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2754825352501477029.post-27882974995874356112012-09-20T16:03:06.809+01:002012-09-20T16:03:06.809+01:00Thanks Marci.
