Interview I, Eva, am interviewing the adopter of an abused dog named Maggie. The purpose is to teach people what it is like to adopt an abused dog.

Eva- How did Maggie react during the first night?

Adopter- She spent the entire night looking depressed and would not make any interactions. If someone leaned down to touch her she would react quickly and begin to growl at them.

Eva- How did she act? Was it good or bad?

Adopter- She acted like any other dog, but she was really protective. Other than that she craved for love, affection, and attention.

Eva- How long was she abused and how was she abused?

Adopter- She was abused for ten years, until we adopted her. She was kicked in the ribs, which really hurts for a chihuahua, terrier mix.

Eva-When did she get better? How was she?

Adopter- After about three years she wasn't as shy and sensitive, but she did react sometimes, not a lot though.

Eva- How did your other dog react to Maggie?

Adopter- She tried to play with Maggie, but Maggie was too shy to play. She would get ambitious and get angry at her. After a while they got along well.

Eva- How did Maggie react to your other dog?

Adopter- She didn't want any connection with her. She would jump back when there was too much interaction between them.

Eva- Was she was she scared of other people? How would she react to them?

Adopter- At first she would be afraid and jump on them, but if they would treat her gently she would react calmly.

Eva- has she gone through any special therapy that could help other abused dog owners?

Adopter- Yes, she went through rib and kidney therapy.

Eva- Thank you so much for joining me

Adopter- The pleasures all mine.
