Sirrona Lee is available for adoption at the PSPCA Philadelphia Headquarters.
I've been adopted!
There was no tension between her and Duffer, my 60 lb male Aussie mix.
This was the two girls after the second fight that they had stopped without my intervention or injury.
She was never rough with her puppies and enjoyed them laying on her, trying to suckle during weaning, and playing with her.
My cats showed they had nothing to fear with her and she showed no interest in them.
This was a couple days after Sirrona came to us. She was Mr. Ashford approved right away.
Changes in our lives came in October 2023. Tension between Gretl and Sirrona Lee was increasing. A fight started one day that was very difficult for me to stop.
I flushed each of their head, neck, chest, and leg wounds and we packed walked.
By the end of the walk, Gretl was trying to rub her Gentle Leader off on Sirrona's back and Sirrona didn't care.
While hopeful about this at first, in the hours that followed and included an ER trip the next day as Gretl's left side of her muzzle swelled and eventually went on to needing several abscesses to be lanced, including one under anesthesia; I knew the reality of trying to continue to foster Sirrona. It was not going to be fair or a rewarding life to anyone involved.
Gretl refused to take direction from Myla when Myla was alive. Sirrona had been backing up my verbal discipline of Gretl when the fight started. Neither bitch was going to back down and it was only by standing on Sirrona's leash to stop her from re-engaging and Gretl willingly disengaging, that the fight stopped.
I've lived with many conflicted dyads over the years. There is no play in a house when two dogs don't get along. No getting treats, chew toys, stuffies, or bones. An unexpected knock on the door can trigger a dog fight; as can food falling on the floor and many other activities of daily living. Some families choose separate lives and locations for each of their dogs. We see after effects of this in the ER, when a door or gate is mistakenly left open
Each dogs' wounds have healed and I am at a point in my grief that I was able to search for Sirrona on the PSPCA website and find that she remains available for adoption.
I may not be her foster mom anymore, but I remain part of a team dedicated to her having a fulfilling life and finding a forever home.

The Delivery: On May 17, 2023 I left for my 2:00 p.m. shift with a pregnant foster mom at home. I came home to a litter with n'er an ounce of goop. She was such a tidy excellent mother from the get-go.
