hi
I adopted my lovely girl on Monday, she is settling in well. so calm and quiet. sleeps most of the day away.
maybe a bit too calm? she's 5 next month, doesn't like to walk for long. lays down mid walk or when I stop, also walks quite slow?
is this about right for her age? should she be rushing around mad!
she would happily remain on the sofa all day, only moving to stretch and get a drink. puts her head down and tail between her legs when i get her lead, doesn't like to be outside at all gives me her paw and sad eyes as if to say 'take me back home!'
im a born worrier and just want to check all is ok, vet checked her over on weds and says she feels to be in good shape.
another worry is that she's not too bothered about eating. on royal canin and refuses to eat out of a bowl? I have to put it on the floor and sit next to her. don't mind doing this but not sure if its a bad habbit I should not incourage?
i have no problem with any thing above, she is me in dog form and we just connect so well. she's just the perfect companion for me.
whats your rough collie like?
