Teeny tiny Nomad earned her name well after riding 25 miles under a car before being rescued and safely secured!

Bebe might sometimes look grumpy in her pictures, but she is the sweetest girl! Bebe is very affectionate! She trails around the house after her foster mom and dad always wanting to see what they are doing and if she can help! She is an amazing biscuit maker.
