Isla was bought off an internet site on facebook by a well meaning lady, who having got her then found that she could not cope. She phone us to ask if we could bring her in for rehoming as she was worried where she might end up.
Little Alfie got her in for us, Donna met up with him and as we were at Gatwick picking up Bruce we did a handover. Isla has not had socialization, is frightened of the big open spaces at the mo so will be going out and about to watch the others run around so that she knows outside is fun. She does not like going on grass at the moment, as she probably doesn't know it, is not used to a collar or lead, but these are all workable. What she does have is a loud saluki singing voice, and when she is split from the sight of our other dogs she uses it to call them!!
She slept well in a crate in our bedroom last night, waking up just about every two hours to ask for a wee or poo which she performed on the patio and straight back in.
She eats well.
Today, she went to the Vets for a check over and first vax. We have deflead her and wormed her last night.
She immediately took to Michael, but now thinks I am ok too. Tag is her favourite. Although the girls have not told her off they do growl when she gets near, which they always do with young pups in the house.
She is astute enough to know not to pester them and so follows Tag around.
I'll add some more bath photos when I can find a place to store my full memory card!
I think with this little one we would be better looking for a home where there is another dog around for her as she has had more dog company by the looks than human company. But then again, she is only young and will learn.
She is curled up as I type, by me feet.
