Halloween Photo Contest Entry: Cha Cha The Beanie Baby

Name of Dog: Cha Cha

Age: 5 years old

Gender: Female (Spayed)

Breed: American Cocker Spaniel

Costume: Beanie Babies/ Ty Toy/ Stuffed Animal (whatever you want to call it)

Story behind the costume: Because Cha Cha looks like a stuffed animal by nature.  

I adopted Cha Cha in December of 2010.  She was a puppy mill dog for first three years of her life, possibly abused during that time, then rescued by the organization called, Hearts United for Animals located at Auburn, NE.  She spent there for 1.5 years.  She was so shy, skittish, shaking, and kind of a dog who is afraid of everything.  But after taking her to obedience classes and practicing for Rally, she overcome a lot of fear and now she is qualified to be a therapy dog.  She put all bad memories behind and having a time of her life.  I wanted to show her off because she is the cutest dog I have ever met!
