Dog tomorrow (eek!) but I’m injured

DP and I have been trying to get a rescue dog, have had the house tour approval etc and we’re waiting for the right one to come along…

Just had a call saying there is a dog that might suit and could be here tomorrow (on a foster to possibly adopt basis)

Normally we would jump at the chance but…

I have at least two broken ribs and a broken shoulder at the moment so in a sling type arrangement and quite a bit of pain. DP would be around but I’m relying on him quite a lot at the moment

But she’s very cute and she needs love

She’s gorgeous! Congratulations!

So glad you got her! Just thought… leave her to potter around the garden, your DH can walk her once a day and then you just do the cuddles. She will be grateful, excited and tired from just having a new environment.
She’s beautiful, I hope you feel better soon Flowers

She looks very settled.

She’s so good, so gentle and calm!
She popped out for a wee before we went to bed at 22:30ish the we left her in the snug (where she’d put herself earlier) with the door open. We went upstairs and not a peep from her until we went downstairs about 7 this morning.

That's left a lump in my throat, OP.

She knows she's home now.

Oh that's just gorgeous!!! So glad you were brave and went for it. 💪

Movingonup22 · 12/02/2022 18:06

Oh she needed a mummy!!!! So happy for her

Flibbertyjibberty · 13/02/2022 15:39

This thread has made me a bit teary! So glad you got her and it's going well - she's gorgeous

UnUdderOne · 13/02/2022 19:52

Gorgeous. Do you think she was docked? (Also loving your floorboards! Where are they from?).

CovoidOfAllHumanity · 13/02/2022 20:24

Definitely had her tail docked mine whose the same breed has a long fluffy tail that curls over his back.
I wish mine was as calm and cuddly though.

Ellmau · 13/02/2022 21:55

She's lovely!

Thanks guys - she is lovely 😍

Yes she’s had her tail and her ears docked - bastards but luckily she’s still beautiful!

@UnUdderOne sorry I don’t know where the floorboards are from, we’ve only just bought this house and they were here already!
