Betty is in. And.. she is much smaller than thought. Penny offered to foster her to assess her and give us time to do a homecheck or two. Betty is already booked in for neutering on Tuesday next week. She is in need of a bath, as she does smell a bit!! She measures around 23" to the shoulder, could be cat friendly as she has met Penny's neighbours cat, who does not take prisoners, and Betty hid behind Penny. Initial photos from the kennels below, but Penny has some more for us. She is friendly, quiet (at the moment) so let's see what day four produces!

Oh gosh, that makes her only about Hamish size then. Can't wait to hear about "who she turns into" in a few days time after her op.

Hi. Just a quick one as we are all tired. Betty traveled well with my daughter in the back of my car. When we got home we was greeted by the dog killer cat that’s squatting at my house! Betty was not bothered by him and they even sat together to have chicken. Betty is already providing to be like a typical toddler and is sneakily stealing stuff that doesn’t belong to her but I’ve been out already to get her some toys and chews so hopefully she’ll settle once she’s knows what she’s allowed. She’s been asking to go out for the toilet and I’m hoping this isn’t a fluke. Oh and she counter surfs a little but responded quickly to the down command! She’s now happily resting in her crate with the door open. I’ll update more as the days go on.

I anticipate a queue round the block for this little girlie. Well done Penny - looking forward to watching her blossom now she is safe.

Betty had a fab night! She is still going to the door when she wants to go to the toilet and goes every time I’ve let her out! She then proceeds to lap the garden severs times at 100 Miles an hour!! She seems to be getting the hang of her new toys now although I’m puppy proofing the house as I type as she is still eyeing up stuff that she can’t have. But she’s learning fast. I couldn’t stand the kennel smell any longer this morning so took her to the local parlour for a bath, brush and blow dry!! The lady in there fell in love with her and said she was a perfect client and wasn’t fazed by anything she did to her. Betty now smells of strawberries which is lush! Betty will make someone a lovely companion. She’s quiet although a little nuts at times. She doesn’t have and food issues and appears to be cat friendly although I would recommend confident cat companions as Betty is still a puppy and seems to respect our one that tells her off when she gets too close! I’m not sure what she would do if a cat was to run. But all good so far. Betty is booked in for her little girls op on Tuesday.

So pleased Betty had a good night - she must be loving being cosy at home with you Penny, rather than in the kennels! Glad she's had a bath too haha...think my car is back to smelling normal now 😂 bless her, she seemed like a gentle soul!

She scrubs up even more beautiful. I am sure Betty won't have to wait long for her forever home.
