Walked this fella today he is not supposed to be good around other dogs but he was out and quite close to others in the field and not a bother , he did snap when he was at the water bowl and another dog was there , maybe he just is not socialised. Otherwise he is a cute little guy who likes cuddles , walks well on the lead and will sit for treats which he takes very gently from your hand. No signs of aggression at all even when i held on to the other end of the treat he just let go and waited to be given the whole thing.He has an old injury to his right front paw which he holds flexed when he wants to get down to sniff but it dosent hamper him in any way. Nice fella.
Well we are delighted that Biddy now Pippa is ours forever, we all love her and promise to mind her for the rest of her life. Buzz loves her too . Thanks to Cathy and Kim for her injections and thanks to the pound staff who minded her so well.
What a lovely story , I realy hope he is picked .Imagine meeting the man himself. Fingers crossed for you.
Well I could not believe it .Out of a car emerged a bundle of fun on a lead , the pair letting their voices be heard that they were delighted to be in action. They are even more gorgeous than thier pics , my first time to meet other DID dogs. Biddy (Pippa) was far too busy chasing sticks in the river to say hello. Very attractive little dogs beautiful markings, real stunners and happy, happy, happy. I dont think they will be in foster for long, these are dotes. Thanks for minding them so well.
She is a fabulous animal a real pet her only slight flaw is that she is and probably always be, a bit of a food thief. She just can not help it , something unattended on a countertop is fair game. Not sure what mix she is but she is stunning the food bit would remind me of a lab. She gets on really well with our dog and any other dog that she has met. It will break my heart to part with her .
This little fella is amazing he has obviously been very sick I had not realised quite how sick. He has lost more hair since his pictures above . Despite all that he has a cheery little personality he seems to appreciate the fact that bathing him is to help him , although i would say that it has to be uncomfrortable to wet his raw areas he is as quiet as a mouse being washed and dried. He is eating with great gusto and having sneaky snacks when the other two are distracted . He spends his time trying to dominate Biddy and races around after her.But at 7pm he goes flat out asleep and does not budge until morning and thats when you can seee that the poor little thing has a bit to go yet in recovery. No surprises in the morning and no marking of territory inside the house. He is friendly with other dogs outside and is surprisingly fast at chasing after birds. When his coat regrows he will be stunning, a few people have stopped to admire him already. He is a great size for a house and a happy perky little companion.
Cory is such a sweet dog, he has come along amazingly since last weekend .He now has the head up and is interested in meeting other dogs ,he even wanted to run today. He is so gentle when taking a treat and became cheeky enough to ask for more. I am delighted to see this little man come on so well. At one stage today he just sat and enjoyed the sun and allowed me pet his head and remove sticklebacks from his coat and not a peep out of him when his eyes were swabbed.There was interest in him today , I hope it will not be long before he is rehomed .Whoever gets him will not be dissapointed.
Biddy is not really either a licker or a wagger , she does both sparingly. She loves playing with other dogs, she is not a dog that would intentionally stray but she sometimes looses where you are and panics and runs off after any moving person but she comes back as sooon as she is called but you have to be quick because she covers so much ground in a short time. I suspect that is how she was separated from her owners. She is very friendly towards other dogs but she is submissive, she has started noticing ducks and squirrels but just finds them interesting I have yet to bring her o a walk where someone does not say awww or ask me what type of breed she is. She is slightly above knee height.
a few pictures of Biddy the first to show off her rangy shape and
of course her collar .The others you can see her lovely coat which is flecked with white on her body.Im afraid she says she is too tired for the photo shoot but I hope that you can get a feel for her huge beautiful face.I hope it works.
i walked her today and while she was a bit reluctant to come out of her kennel she was great when out. She wanted to greet every dog she met and she stopped to be cuddled ,she is in good shape and a really beautiful creature her coat feels. like velvet
well we had a fantastic time this morning we were out at 7 so I could let her off the lead. Boy what a beauty this gril is , she moves with such grace and glee she is excellent at recall she is a much nicer dog than our own Buzz who can be a wilful brat. When she got back home she felt more confident and challenged him trying to steal his food which did not go down well.
Other dogs do not seem interested in her so I think we should be safe at day 21 but I would be grateful if anyone could tell me how i can be sure .
This is a dream dog for an active family who wants a large gentle intelligent dog. She sometimes gives the impression that her previous handling was not always kind, any sudden arm movements and she ducks or if you pet her when she is asleep she flinches slightly and then relaxes into the rub. What a pet.
